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. |
