Fish culture has become a popular enterprise in the Haryana state but the production level has not met the demand for a very long period. So, it is important to identify the barriers which are working behind the growth and development of fish farmers in the Haryana state. The current investigation took place in eight districts of Haryana, India comprising two zones i.e., ARTI-I and ARTI-II. The primary objective was to understand the challenges confronted by farmers in adoption of fish farming. The findings presented in this paper stem from a field survey conducted during the 2023-24 period, involving 240 respondents.
