In this way a total number of 66 respondents i.e. 33 beneficiaries and 33 non-beneficiaries were included in the sample for the study. (A) Technical Constraints: The PWPS adopted respondents reported that This technology only works in less than 8 meters water table and PWPS spare parts are not available in market these were consider to be 1st and 2nd major technical constraints respectively. In the same district for non adopted farmers, It does not works in cold / winter days and This technology only works in less than 8 meter water table these were considered to be 1st and 2nd ranks of technical constraints respectively. (B) Financial Constraints: Less number of PWPS are available on subsidy and High cost of PWPS these both constraints were found to be the most serious financial constraints and were ranked as 1st by the adopted group in the study area. In case of non adopted group, High cost of PWPS was found to be the most serious financial constraint and it was 1st rank and Lack of money to buy a PWPS was considered 2nd rank.
