The study was taken up in Gulbarga district of Karnataka to know the impact of KVK trainings on use of bio-fertilizers and bio-pesticides, Among 160 farmers, 80 trained and 80 untrained farmers spread in sixteen purposively selected villages with four Talukas namely;Gulbarga, Chittapur, Aland and Sedam under the domain of Krishi Vigyana Kendra. Two variables namely, socio-economic status and levels of knowledge about the training programme of the KVK were measured by pre-structured and pre-tested schedule. Finding of the study showed that 57.50 per cent of the trained and 60.00 per cent of untrained farmers were from the middle age group, With regard to level of education, 30.00 per cent of the trained and 36.25 per cent of the untrained respondents were educated up to Middle School. It was found that 45.00 per cent of trained and 41.25 per cent of untrained respondents were belonging to semi-medium income category and 61.25 per cent of trained and 53.75 per cent of untrained respondents were of medium farmer category. It was evident from study that 33.75 per cent of trained and 11.25 per cent of untrained respondents were regular listener of radio and 75.00%, 57.14%, 71.95% and 42.86% of trained respondents regularly participated in training, field day, Krishimela, demonstration and field visit, respectively and it was also found that 38.75 per cent of trained and only 17.50 per cent of untrained farmers belonged to high category in overall knowledge level.Keywords

Gulbarga region of the Karnataka is known as “Pulse bowl” of Karnataka. Since it is grown as a sole crop, is prone to the attack of several insect pests and diseases. Among which the pigeon pea pod borer, with this background to minimize the burden of chemical on environment and also the cost of cultivation, it is therefore, imperative that, alternative environment friendly methods of plant protection like integrated pest management (IPM) techniques including the use of bio-pesticides are the next best resources for agriculture. Trichoderma, Nucleo polyhedrosis virus (NPV), Neem products and Bacillus thuringiensis are popular. The study was taken up in Gulbarga district of Karnataka with four Talukss namely; Gulbarga, Chittapur, Aland and Sedam involving 160 farmers (80 trained and 80 untrained). Data were collected by personal interview method using structured interview schedule. It reveled that 47.50 per cent of trained and 12.50 per cent of untrained respondents belonged to medium adoption level category, Regarding adoption level of Rhizobium practices, 43.75 and 11.25 per cent of trained and untrained farmers were of high adoption category, Majority of 47.50 and 90.00 per cent of trained and untrained farmers were of low adoption category with respect to adoption level of phosphorus solubilizing bacteria practices, Regarding the adoption level of utility of NSKE practices, half of the trained (50.00%) respondents and only 15.00% of untrained respondent were of medium adoption category. In adoption level of utility of Trichoderma practices, 68.75 per cent and 10.00 per cent of trained and untrained respondents, respectively, belonged to medium adoption category and regarding adoption level of utility of bio-digester practices, 48.75 and 6.25 per cent of trained and untrained farmers were of medium adoption category.Keywords

The present study was conducted in Gulbarga district of Karnataka during the year 2012-13. Based on highest number of vermicomposting pits, four taluks namely Gulbarga, Jewargi, Aland and Afazalpur were purposively selected and from each taluk, two villages were selected and from each village, fifteen farmers were selected randomly. Thus, the total sample size constitutes 120 respondents for the study. The ex-post facto research design was used for the study. The data were collected using pre-tested structured interview schedule personally. The collected data were analyzed using appropriate statistical tools. The results of the study revealed that, about 70 per cent of the farmers were between medium to high knowledge category about vermicomposting and majority of them were having knowledge in recommended pit size, pre decomposition of raw material before filling pits and management of ants and termites. More than 70 per cent of the farmers belonged to high adopter category. More than 80 per cent of farmers adopted the recommended practices like the chemical used for pest management, size of the pit and dosage of chemical used for management of ants and termites. The independent variables like land holding, extension participation, mass media utilization of the farmers had shown the positive and significant relationship with their knowledge level and land holding, annual income and scientific orientation exhibited positive and significant relationship with their adoption level.Keywords

The data were collected using pre-tested structured interview schedule personally. The collected data were analyzed using appropriate statistical tools. The results of the study revealed that, more than 70 per cent of farmers expressed non availability of worms at village level and non-availability of suitable and convenient space for vermicompost production as major constraints. Around sixty per cent of farmers suggested for making provision for availability of worms at hobli level.Keywords

Majority of the vermicompost farmers belonged to high annual income (> Rs. 51,000) and half of the farmers had regular habit of consulting neighbors and relatives as a source of information for taking operational decision for both agricultural as whole in addition to vermicomposting. High majority of the farmers regularly participated in training, krishimela and demonstration. Cent per cent of respondents were regular viewers of Television, occasional listener of radio and occasional reader of news papers. Majority of respondents belonged to medium level category of economic motivation, risk orientation, scientific orientation and market orientation.Keywords
