The findings indicated that 94 (47.00%) of total pea producers faced medium level of constraints in adoption of pea production technology. Whereas, 29 (14.50%) respondents were reported from the group of low constraints level and 77 (38.50%) respondents were in the high constraints level. It was also found that inadequate skill for seed treatment, non-availability of timely technical advice for crop cultivation, non-availability of improved agriculture tools in the local market, non-availability of labour at the time of harvesting of crop, non-availability of credit at marginal interest rate, high cost of plant protection chemicals were important constraints perceived by the pea growers in adoption of pea production technology.Keywords

The present study were aimed to study the social economic traits of pea growers in Kota region of Rajasthan. Kota region consists of five districts, out of which three districts namely Bundi, Kota and Tonk were selected purposively on the basis of maximum area under pea cultivation. Two tehsils from each identified districts were selected on the basis of maximum area under pea cultivation. Thus, in all six tehsils were taken for the present study. It was found that out of the total respondents, 44.00 per cent respondents were from middle age group of 34 to 56 years, whereas 23.00 per cent farmers were from old age group (above 56 years) and only 33.00 per cent were found in the young age group i.e. below 34 years. Findings indicated that 30.50 per cent farmers were in the illiterate group while, 43.50 per cent farmers were in the literate group (upto secondary level) and only 26.00 per cent of total respondents were educated above secondary level in the study area. It is evident from the study that out of 200 respondents, 39.00 per cent farmers were from general caste, while 22.50 per cent farmers were from other backward caste (OBC) category and 18.00 per cent farmers were from schedule caste (SC), only 20.50 per cent respondents were from the schedule tribe group. Further, it was found that 19.00, 20.00, 23.00 and 38.00 per cent small farmers were from SC, ST, OBC and higher caste group respectively. Whereas, 17.00, 21.00, 22.00 and 40.00 per cent marginal farmers were found from SC, ST, OBC and higher caste group respectively. The study reported that majority (65.00%) of total respondents belonged to agriculture as a main occupation whereas, 22.50 per cent and 12.50 per cent respondents were found to be from service / business + agriculture and agriculture with caste occupation group, respectively. It was also reported that among marginal respondents, 68.00, 12.00, and 20.00 per cent had agriculture, agriculture with caste occupation and agriculture + service / business occupation respectively. While, 62.00, 13.00 and 25.00 per cent small farmers possessed agriculture, agriculture with caste and agriculture + service/ business occupation, respectively.Keywords

Findings revealed that out of 200 respondents, 45.50 per cent respondents had low information processing behaviour and 31.50 per cent farmers having medium level of information processing behaviour. Whereas, only 23.00 per cent respondents were observed in high information processing behaviour group. Results further revealed that 51.00 and 40.00 per cent marginal and small farmers, respectively were in the low information processing behaviour group. Likewise, 28.00 and 35.00 per cent marginal and small farmers had medium information processing behaviour about improved pea cultivation practices, respectively. Whereas, 21.00 per cent marginal farmers and 25.00 per cent small farmers were found in high information processing behaviour group about pea production technology. It was noted that among the selected information processing modes, information evaluation methods were used upto greatest extent by the pea growers with MPS 60.15. These were followed by information transfer methods with MPS 44.60. However, information storage methods with 40.11 MPS were least used information processing methods by the pea growers. (iii) Findings indicated that there was significant difference in information processing behaviour between marginal and small farmers about pea cultivation technology. The mean value further indicates that small farmers had higher information processing behaviour than marginal farmers about pea cultivation technology.Keywords

Pea (Pisum sativum L.) is one of the important vegetable crops grown all over the world. It is a cool season crop of the tropical and sub-tropical regions. Pea is the major vegetable crop of rabi season in Rajasthan. It occupies of area of 3729 hectares with the production of 5807 tonnes in Rajasthan (vital statistics, 2009-10). It is mainly cultivated in Jaipur, Nagaur, Kota, Bundi, Alwar and Chittorgarh districts in the state. The Kota region of Rajasthan is leading in area and production of pea. It occupies on an area of 1176 hectares with the production of 1493 tonnes in Kota region. The study revealed that out of 200 respondents, 50.50 per cent respondents had medium level of knowledge about improved pea production technology. This was followed by 21.00 per cent farmers having low knowledge level regarding pea production technology. Whereas, only 28.50 per cent respondents were observed in the high knowledge group. Analysis of results further revealed that 24.00 and 18.00 per cent marginal farmers and small farmers respectively were in the low knowledge group. Likewise, 50.00 and 51.00 per cent marginal and small farmers had medium level of knowledge, respectively. Whereas, 26.00 per cent marginal farmers and 31.00 per cent small farmers possessed high knowledge about improved pea cultivation technology.Keywords

The present research paper is based on the formative evaluation of NAIP with special reference to irrigation water management in wheat cultivation in Banswara district of Southern Rajasthan. The consortia project of NAIP was executed disadvantaged NAIP in four tribal districts namely, Udaipur, Banswara, Dungarpur and Sirohi. Banswara district was selected for the investigation based on maximum households covered under the project. In Banswara district there are four Panchayat Samities viz., Talwara, Ghatol, Garhi and Kushalgarh. Talwara Panchayat Samiti was selected for the study. One Panchayat Samiti viz., Talwara was selected for the study. In Telwara Panchayat Samiti four Gram Panchayat viz., Talwara, Ghatol, Garhi and Kushalgarh were taken as such, for the present study and considered as beneficiaries. For the comparison between beneficiaries and non-beneficiaries farmers four Gram Panchayat were considered for the sample study. This sample of 19 beneficiaries each from every beneficiary village and similar size of sample of non-beneficiaries (19) from each of the non-beneficiary villages constituted total size of sample i.e. 152. Alarming findings indicated that almost similar number of beneficiaries (Bs) and non-beneficiaries (NBs) fell under higher level of adoption about irrigation water management (IWM) in wheat. Adverse impact of NAIP with regards to IWM interventions introduced was noticed since, beneficiaries respondents 50 (65.79 %) expressed slightly higher adoption of IWM as compared with those of non-beneficiaries 42 (55.27 %). Data also show that 16 (21.06 %) beneficiaries and 30 (39.47 %) non-beneficiaries belonged to medium level of adoption of IWM. Furthermore, that is booting, tillering and milking stages at first priority (MPS 85.65 %) followed by irrigation in crop at CRI stage (tillering and flowering stages) ranked as second (MPS 82.15). At the same time it was also observed that out of seven intervention of IWM, the beneficiaries farmers visualized comparatively more adoption of IWM sub intervention viz., irrigation after 21 days of sowing, irrigation at CRI and flowering stages and providing at least 450-650mm irrigation water in wheat crop.Keywords
