| dc.description.abstract | To assess the fertiliser use behaviour of rice farmers, a study was carried out at Palakkad and Kannur districts of Kerala state. The study revealed that farmers of Palakkad and Kannur differed significantly with respect to adoption of fertiliser management practices with farmers of Palakkad having a higher level of adoption. It was found that the four variables, knowledge about fertiliser management practices, credit utilisation, attitude towards fertiliser use and area under rice are important in predicting the adoption of fertiliser management practices. Organising short duration training for farmers on integrated nutrient management practices is being recommended for enhancing the adoption of fertiliser management practices in rice. | en_US |
