Abstract

Intercropping is a variant of multiple cropping practices that includes the cultivation of two or more crops in definite close proximity. The current study was led in dry and wet agro climatic zones of Haryana in 2022 with an objective to assess the adoption of intercropping practices among farmers of Haryana. The primary data were collected personally from 120 respondents through a well-structured interview schedule. Findings revealed that nearly three-fifths of the respondents had medium level of adoption of intercropping practices and the farmers were adopting intercropping mainly in vegetables. Highly significant association was found between education, mass media exposure, inheritance with level of adoption of the intercropping system. A significant association was found between age, caste, annual income, land holding, extension contacts with level of adoption. The main reasons for adoption of intercropping were higher income and improved socio-economic status. The paper recommends on field training/demonstration for farmers who were adopting intercropping so that adoption of intercropping can be made efficient and from this more number of farmers will be encouraged to adopt intercropping.
哈里亚纳邦农民采用间作做法的程度
间作是复种做法的一种变体,包括在一定的距离内种植两种或两种以上的作物。目前的研究于2022年在哈里亚纳邦干湿农业气候带进行,目的是评估哈里亚纳邦农民采用间作做法的情况。主要数据是通过精心设计的访谈计划从120名受访者中亲自收集的。调查结果显示,近五分之三的受访者采用间作的程度中等,农民主要在蔬菜中采用间作。受教育程度、大众传媒接触程度、遗传程度与间作采用程度呈极显著相关。年龄、种姓、年收入、土地持有、外延接触与收养水平之间存在显著关联。采用间作的主要原因是提高收入和改善社会经济地位。本文建议对采用间作的农民进行实地培训/示范,以便有效地采用间作,从而鼓励更多的农民采用间作。
