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.

Abstract


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.
