Title : Extent of Adoption of Guava Cultivation Practices among Farmers of Haryana

Abstract :

The present study was carried out in Haryana, India, to delineate the association between the adoption of the Guava cultivation practices and the independent variables of the farmers adopting guava cultivation. Personal conversations with the farmers served as the method for gathering the data. The sample size for the study contained 120 respondents. Analysis methods used to examine the study data included correlation, multiple regression, frequency, percentage, WMS, and rank. The selected independent factors accounted for 22.90% of the variation in the farmers' adoption of guava farming techniques., according to the coefficient of determination (R2). Some constraints were faced by the farmers, viz., fluctuations in market prices, high post-harvest losses, chances of theft, threats from wild and stray animals, and poor marketing in the local area. Overall, the study suggests that the government should establish proper cold storage facilities, provide MSP to all horticultural crops and establish proper marketing channels in rural areas.
