Extension is one of the three major mandates of the CCS Haryana Agricultural University, Hisar along with research and teaching. Krishi melas are major extension tool in transferring latest technologies to farming community for their overall welfare. It is gaining momentum over the years. A large amount of money and manpower has been involved in organizing this extension activity by the University twice every year (Rabi & Kharif). The study was conducted during Krishi melas (Rabi & Kharif) organized by Directorate of Extension Education, CCSHAU, Hisar at university campus during the year 2015-16. Randomly selected farmers (200 farmers) from the Krishi Melas were interview with the help of a well-structured interview schedule. About 17.5 per cent and 33 per cent of the respondents were fully satisfied and satisfied, respectively. Majority of the respondents (57.5 per cent) were willing to attend the next Krishi Melas. Most of the farmers suggested that latest high yielding varieties (HYV) of seeds should be available (61.50 per cent) and buzz session should be well planned with more duration (51 per cent). Many valuable suggestions were suggested by the farmers to enhance the utility of these melas as extension tool.Keywords

One of the most important and powerful tool of extension in the armory of Directorate of Extension Education is monthly agricultural Magazine; Haryana Kheti. A magazine published by Directorate of Extension Education from the last fifty years. It covers all important aspects of agriculture that affects the day to day life of farming community like; recent developments in the field of agriculture, animal husbandry, home sciences, along with government schemes and programmes related to welfare of farming community. Approximately 3,500 copies of Haryana Kheti are printed every month. To study the farmers' preferences, overall utility and constraints faced by the readers of the magazine, a study was conducted on the subscribers of Haryana Kheti. The sample was selected by choosing 10 respondents randomly from Eastern, Western, Northern and Southern Haryana, respectively. Another 10 respondents were selected from neighboring states of Punjab and Rajasthan. Data was collected by sending postal mail to the subscribers' addresses and conducting telephonic interview by using a well structures questionnaire/ Interview schedule. The collected data were analyzed and interpreted for drawing the conclusion. The study revealed the "Monthly Krishi Karaya" (Agricultural practices of the month) was the most preferred article, followed by articles on Agriculture, Animal Husbandry and articles on Government policies. As far as, overall utility of Haryana Kheti is concerned; more than sixty percent farmers told it as 'Very Use full'. Analysis of data related to major constraints faced by the farmers showed that 'delay in delivery' was very serious constraint, closely followed by 'Poor or lack of photographs' and 'poor printing and paper quality'.Keywords

This study was conducted on the final year students of agriculture in Chaudhary Charan Singh Haryana Agricultural University, Hisar. The objective of the study was to observe that which of the students (either of rural or urban backgrounds) perform better in agriculture during their degree programme. Both of the programme (6 year & 4 year programme) students were included in the population and their total number was 94. The study reveals that urban students performed academically better than rural students but general thinking is that rural students should perform better in agriculture.Keywords

Knowledge and information are the most essential inputs of the era and must be effectively communicated to the farmers to respond successfully to the opportunities and challenges of social economic and technological changes for the improvement of agricultural productivity, food security and rural livelihoods. Agricultural Technology Information Centre (ATIC) came into existence at CCS Haryana Agricultural University, Hisar in February 2002. Since then it is providing free advisory to the farming community of the state on various aspect of agriculture and allied fields. The present study was conducted for identify the problem of cotton growers by using of toll tree number of ATIC . farmers call on the toll tree number of ATIC per month. Majority ofthe callers are from Haryana state. The cotton growers were selected from the list available inATIC by using random sampling from district Hisar and Sirsa, two leading cotton growing districts of Haryana. It was concluded that the more call from Hisar District compare to Sirsa District. 45.00 percent and 37.50 percent of the cotton growers identified the major problem related to Insect-pest identified by Hisar and Sirsa District respectively.Keywords

Mango (Mangifera Indica L.) is known as king of fruits. It belongs to the family Anacardiaceae and genus Mangifera. In Haryana, the maximum area under mango cultivation is in Yamunanagar district with 5419 hectare followed by Ambala, Panchkula, andKamal. The production of mango in Yamunanagar is 60.02 thousand MT. The present study was conducted in Yamunanagar district of Haryana. This area was selected purposely because of maximum area under mango fruit crops. Further two blocks, Chhachhrauli and Jagadhari were selected purposively from Yamunanagar district and from each block two villages were selected randomly and thereby a total number of four villages was selected for data collection. Thirty mango grower farmers were selected randomly from each village for the study and thus, a total number of 120 farmers were interviewed. The specific objectives ofthe present study were socio-economic status, knowledge, adoption and the constraints in adoption of post-harvest management practices by mango growers. The data were collected with the help of well-structured interview schedule..Twelve important independent variables such as age, education, socio-economic status, caste, family size, occupation of respondents, annual income, land holdings, farm implements, mass media exposure, extension contacts, and irrigation facilities were selected for the study. The study revealed that majority of the farmers were middle aged and belonged to general caste, more than ha lf of the respondents were educated matric to graduate and one-third of respondents had family members up to 5. Most of them were engaged in farming and nearly two-third per cent of the respondents had annual income above Rs. 1 lakh. More than h a lf of the farmers belonged to medium to high level of socio-economic status. Majority ofthe farmers belonged to low to medium level of mass media and extension contacts. More than half of the farmers used tube well as source of irrigation.Keywords

Rice (Oryza sativa L.) serves as the primary staple food for over half of the world's population and is believed to be the first cultivated crop globally. In Asia, 90-95 per cent of the world's total rice production occurs. Burning crop residues not only results in economic loss but also causes environmental pollution, poses hazards to human health, produces greenhouse gases that contribute to global warming, and leads to the loss of plant nutrients such as N, P, K, and S. Agricultural byproducts, such as crop residues, can be repurposed for a multitude of applications, such as bioenergy, biofuel, briquetting, pelleting, composting, and various industrial uses. In order to maintain sustainable soil health over extended periods of time, it is recommended that a significant proportion of crop residues be conserved either by leaving them on the soil surface or by integrating them into the soil. Therefore, proficient residue management is a critical component of the practise of conservation agriculture. Personality traits are known to influence farmers' knowledge levels; thus, this study examined the relationship between selected independent variables and farmers' knowledge and adoption levels concerning paddy straw management techniques in Haryana. The results showed that among the 11 selected independent variables, education, socio-economic status, mass media exposure, and extension contact were positively and significantly correlated with farmers' knowledge and adoption levels at a 0.01 level of probability. In contrast, landholding, farm implements, and irrigation facilities were positively but non-significantly correlated with farmers' knowledge and adoption levels concerning paddy straw management techniques. Regression analysis revealed that the selected independent variables collectively accounted for 67.33 per cent and 56.89 per cent of the variation in farmers' knowledge and adoption levels, respectively.Keywords
