Abstract

India is the land of spices and garlic is an essential ingredient of Indian cuisine. The farmers of some areas in middle Gujarat are leaving the cultivation of garlic crop. Considering this fact, this study was conducted in Lunawada and Santarampur talukas of the Mahisagar district. A total of 100 farmers from 10 villages were selected to identify the factors experienced by them for discontinuing garlic cultivation by employing Ex-Post-Facto research design. It is observed that ‘r’ computed between factors to discontinuing garlic cultivation and age (0.347), farming experience (0.279) and years left garlic cultivation (0.399) were found to be highly significant at 0.01 level. The ‘r’ value computed for education (0.207) and landholding (0.221) were found to be significant at 0.05 levels. The information on personal, social, economic, psychological, market-related, labour-related, and situational factors experienced by farmers’ respondents is analyzed to have in-depth knowledge of each factor. The analyzed suggestions will help to promote the farmers to cultivate garlic crop. The solution to the problems is not in a few packages but in significant changes in the present policies related to garlic cultivation that need to be focused on.

决定停止大蒜种植的因素

印度是香料之乡，大蒜是印度菜肴中必不可少的原料。古吉拉特邦中部一些地区的农民正在放弃种植大蒜作物。考虑到这一事实，本研究是在Mahisagar地区的Lunawada和Santarampur talukas进行的。采用事后调查设计，选取10个村庄的100名农民，确定他们中断大蒜种植的因素。观察发现，停止种植大蒜与年龄(0.347)、种植经验(0.279)和剩余大蒜种植年限(0.399)之间的r值在0.01水平上极显著。教育(0.207)和土地持有(0.221)的“r”值在0.05水平上具有显著性。分析农民受访者经历的个人、社会、经济、心理、市场相关、劳动力相关和情境因素信息，以深入了解每个因素。分析建议有助于促进农民种植大蒜作物。解决这些问题的办法不是一蹴而就的，而是要对目前与大蒜种植有关的政策进行重大改革，这些政策需要得到重视。
