The gap between the know how already attained and their application in field is still large despite of considerable advancement in cumin production technology. Cumin is the important spice crop of the Junagadh district. The present research was conceived to know the constraints faced by the cumin growers in adoption of recommended cumin production technology. The important constraints perceived by cumin growers were weight and quality loss during storage and transportation, inadequate and irregular power supply, high charges of electricity, inadequate storage facilities, lack of marketing infrastructure facilities, lack of post harvest management facilities and fluctuation of cumin price in the market.Keywords

Castor (Ricinus communis L.) is one of the most ancient, non-edible, medicinal and industrial oilseed crops of the country. Castor is indigenous to Eastern Africa and most probably originated in Ethiopia. India contributes more than one third of the world production of castor oil and meets about 80 per cent world castor oil demands. The knowledge about crisis management in castor is important aspect to improve the production of castor.A multistage random sampling technique was used for the selection and study of 180 respondents. Majority (78.33%) of the respondents had medium knowledge level of crisis management practices; whereas 15.00 and 6.67 per cent of respondents had low and high level of knowledge about crisis management practices, respectively.Keywords
