Abstract

Agriculture sector is the heart of India’s social development. India is agriculture dependent country because 2/3rd of its population depends upon agriculture for their survival and it contributes approximately 14% to India’s GDP. Henna (Lawsonia inermis L.), is a plantation crop native to tropical and subtropical regions of Africa, Asia, and Australia and is found in arid and semi-arid zones. From its leaves a red orange dye agent is extracted which has an affinity for bonding with proteins, and thus is used to dye human body parts (skin, hair, fingernails), as well as leather, silk and wool. The present study was conducted purposively selected Pali district in arid zone of Rajasthan State of India. One hundred and twenty beneficiaries were selected purposively who have obtained training on improved henna production technologies and 120 non-beneficiaries were selected randomly in same number from same villages of study area. Thus, a total of 240 farmers was selected from 20 villages for the present investigation. it was found that more than half (57.91%) of respondents belong to medium level of adoption category followed by 27.08 percent of respondents belong to high level of adoption category. Only 15 percent of respondents belongs to low level of adoption category of improved henna production technologies.

印度拉贾斯坦邦巴利地区农民对指甲花生产技术的采用水平

农业是印度社会发展的核心。印度是一个依赖农业的国家，因为三分之二的人口依赖农业生存，农业对印度GDP的贡献约为14%。指甲花(Lawsonia inermis L.)是一种种植作物，原产于非洲、亚洲和澳大利亚的热带和亚热带地区，生长在干旱和半干旱地区。从它的叶子中提取出一种红色的橙色染料，这种染料与蛋白质结合有亲和力，因此被用来染色人体部位(皮肤、头发、指甲)，以及皮革、丝绸和羊毛。本研究是在印度拉贾斯坦邦干旱地区的巴利区进行的。有目的地选择了120名接受过改进指甲花生产技术培训的受益人，从研究地区的同一村庄随机选择了120名相同数量的非受益人。因此，本次调查共选取了20个村庄的240名农民。调查发现，超过一半(57.91%)的受访者属于中等水平的采用率，其次是27.08%的受访者属于高水平的采用率。只有15%的受访者属于低水平采用改进的指甲花制作技术类别。
