Adoption Pattern of Integrated Nutrient Management in Basmati Rice in Haryana

Mohit Sehal | Neeraj Pawar | D. P. Malik

Abstract: The goal of the current study was to find out the extent to which farmers in Basmati paddy make use of integrated natural methods (INM). Four Haryana districts?Karnal, Kaithal, Sonipat, and Jind?were specifically chosen. A random block was chosen from every district. Twenty INM and ten CPM farmers were chosen from each block. As a result, 120 farmers were chosen at random. With the helped of a specifically created interview schedule, the selected farmers were personally interviewed to gather the primary data for the agricultural year 2019?20 using the survey method. As a result, 120 farmers were chosen at random. With the helped of a specifically created interview schedule, the selected farmers were personally interviewed to gather the primary data for the agricultural year 2019?20 using the survey method. The overall results show that farmers use organic components more often than biological ones (approximately 25% of farmers used green leaf manure, such as dhaincha, and about 40% of paddy farmers used FYM, whereas around 2.5% of farmers solely used Azospirilium for seed priming). The Majority (58.75%) of the INM farmers had medium level of adoption about various selected INM practices followed by high extent of adoption (25%) and then low extent of adoption (16.25%). Thus, it is recommended that extension efforts be stepped up to raise farmers' knowledge of the necessity for greater adoption of INM technology for paddy (basmati) production that is sustainable.
