Abstract:

Survey of farmer was done to record the farmer's profile, livestock production system, socio - economic condition in pre constructed preforms for the selection of farmers. Survey revealed that average annual income of farmers at the beginning of intervention at Traimbakeshwar and Ambegaon taluka was Rs. 25,270/- and Rs. 26,530/-respectively. So, based on survey, 14 SC and 20 ST, altogether 34 resource poor farmers were selected randomly. Necessary training was imparted to the farmers on goat farming. Farmers were given one unit of adult Osmanabadi goat i.e. one male and four female goats, 200 kg pelleted goat feed, 2 kg mineral mixture, feeder, waterer and turpolin sheet. Goats were maintained in semi intensive system of management. Farmers renovated the existing goat shed with low cost locally available materials. Farmers were feeding maize, marvel grass, guinea grass, hybrid napier etc. as green fodder. Supplied pelleted feed was also provided @ 100 g twice daily to each goat. Routine deworming and vaccination was done. Animals were monitored regularly. The data on performance, mortality, disposal of goats were collected. Average weight of male and female adult Osmanabadi goats was recorded to be 23.470 ± 0.872 kg and 25.216 ± 0.691 kg respectively. Average birth weight was recorded to be 2.580 ± 0.234 kg. Average daily gain of kids was recorded to be 108.45 ± 10.21 g / day. So, far 48 kids were born from 27 kiddings and average kidding per cent was triplet 7.41 %, twinning 62.96 % and single 29.63 %.

Abstract:

The economic growth in the agriculture sector contributes to the income of the Bangka Belitung Island Province. In the few decades, pepper production in Indonesia retains its position as one of the biggest producers in the world. However, pepper production in the province goes down. Consequently, the income of pepper farmers reduces. Understanding the farmers' demographic and their perception of the technology acceptance model will help policymakers provide the best empowerment program and agricultural support program to uplift their welfare. The study aims to understand the socio-economic profile and the perception of pepper farmers towards the technology acceptance model using information technology in pepper farming activity. The data collection process was conducted from August to November 2019. Structured questionnaires and face-to-face data collection methods were applied to earn the primary data from 100 pepper smallholders in Bangka Tengah and Bangka Selatan, Bangka Belitung Island Province. Descriptive analysis was used to identify the respondents' profiles and explain their skills and awareness to adopt information technology in their farming activity. The study revealed that most of the pepper farmers were in the average age of 45 years old, held elementary school level, received income of about 5.7 million, was experienced farmers with 20 years of pepper farming activity, and had about 2.1 – 5 ha of land area. The majority of the pepper smallholders offered low scores to the proportion of perceived usefulness and perceived ease of use. The results benefit the policymaker and farmer in providing a better farming activity and offering the best program to empower pepper farmers.

Abstract:

Purpose – The purpose of this paper was to determine if there is an association between farmers’ socio-economic profile and their perception of climate change and related events (drought). Understanding of farmers’ perceptions of drought and climate change may assist in informing policy decisions and development of appropriate intervention strategies. Design/methodology/approach – Discriminant analysis was used to assess the relative importance of the discriminating characteristics (socio-economic characteristics) through the utilization of the weights of the discriminant function. Findings – Age, education, literacy level, farm type, location and gender were important predictors of how farmers perceive climate change and drought phenomena. Originality/value – Most of the studies carried out in the study area were largely descriptive and did not find the association between farmer socio-economic profiles and how they perceive climate change and drought events. This paper also uses discriminant analysis which has been rarely used in this type of study.

Most of the farmers were medium income group (57%) with mean annual income of Tk. 200500. About 42% farmers had training on farming of different duration (7 to 30 d). Highest proportion of the duck houses were made of tin-shed (74%) having necessary floor space for ducks. The data obtained illustrated that majority of the farmers (74%) used sufficient supplementary feed to their ducks. About 65% of the farmers reared Deshi ducks in their farms. Most of the farmers (70%) cleaned their farm houses regularly. About 73% farmers separated their diseased duck from healthy ones. It was also found that most of the farmers (89%) buried their dead ducks under soil. Data indicated that majority of the farmers (67%) had partial idea about duck diseases. The highest proportion of the farmers (72%) followed vaccination program strictly. About 71% farmers consulted with village doctor. Nearly 51% farmers had low level of knowledge about duck farming. In the present study 10 problems were identified out of which low price of duck meat and egg made ranked as most serious problems. If the problems are addressed properly, the duck raising could be more profitable business in Bangladesh.DOI: http://dx.doi.org/10.3329/bjas.v41i2.14124Bang. J. Anim. Sci. 2012. 41 (2): 96-105

Abstract:

Effective waste management in dairy buffalo farming is vital to ensure the health and productivity of a farm and its farmers, as well as to minimize negative environmental impacts. This study examined the waste management practices of dairy buffalo farmers in Nueva Ecija, Philippines in relation to their socio-economic status and farm profile. Fifty-nine dairy buffalo farmers were interviewed face-to-face using pre-tested semi-structured questionnaires to gather data on their socio-demographic and economic profiles, farm profiles, and waste management system. Principal Component Analysis and binary regression were used to determine correlation between socio-economic status and farm profile with their manure management systems. Eighty percent of the respondents practiced stockpiling while 12% practiced vermi-composting. The liquid waste is disposed of via open channels going to rice fields, rivers, creeks, irrigation canals, forage areas, or vacant lots. The non-biodegradable farm waste is either buried, burned, thrown in a vacant area, reused, sold or given to garbage collectors. The regression model revealed that the significant determinant of manure management system was animal holding (p<0.05) which indicates that as the animal holding of the dairy farmers increased by 1 unit, there was a .23 increase in the probability that the dairy farmers will practice stockpiling. The agencies concerned need to intensify efforts to disseminate suitable, cost-effective, efficient and sustainable interventions related to waste management for dairy buffalo farms.

Abstract:

Blitar District is one of the areas that has potential in developing laying hens. However, laying hens in Blitar are still traditionally carried out and have not paid attention to aspects of effectiveness and efficiency economically. The purpose of the study was to find out the profile of farmer , test the level of farmer productivity and examine the effect of socio-economic factors (the age of farmer, education level, length of livestock raising and number of livestock) on labor productivity in laying hens in Blitar District. The study used a survey method with a sample of 22 sub-districts in Blitar District. The determination of the number of sub-districts was chosen using the purposive sampling method, so that 6 sub-districts were selected. Respondents were selected by the quota sampling method of 10 farmer in each selected region. Data collected were analyzed descriptively and statistically. To find out the social influence on productivity, classical assumption was tested and multiple linear regression tests. Based on the results of the study, the profile of laying hens in Blitar District carried out traditional farming systems with livestock ownership including high categories that had heterogeneous socio-economic status. Furthermore, labor productivity of laying hens in Blitar District is quite effective and efficient, because the value is greater than the minimum wage (UMR) of Blitar District. Age of farmers, education of farmers, and number of livestock have a significant influence on the productivity of laying hens farmers in Blitar District.

Abstract:

The socio-economic condition of fish farmers was assessed in the HabiganjSadarupazila, Habiganj, Bangladesh to determine the constraints and vulnerability of thecommunity in term of aquaculture. Data from 30 fish farmers were collected duringJanuary to May 2019. Among surveyed farmers, most of the pond size (37.61%)ranged between 0.02 ha to 0.06 ha and 63.33% of ponds under single ownership. Mostof the farmers were interested to stock rohu, catla, mrigal along with other species andaverage stocking density was found to be 16236 fry/ha. All farmers provided feeds forthe cultured species and 73.33% farmers have taken measures against diseaseoutbreak. The highest production was estimated as 6.19 MT/ha/year and lowestproduction was 0.54 MT/ha/year. Highest income of farmer was reported as 5,00,000Tk/ha/year and the lowest as 74534 Tk/ha/year. Highest 34.38% farmers in the studyarea reported high cost of feed is the most important constraint. The study indicatedthat majority of fish farmers (33.33%) were in age structure of 31-40 years. Similar tothe religious profile of the population, Muslims (93.33%) dominated the ownership.Among all the farmers, 40% received primary level education. The study revealed that60% of farmers lived in joint families with tin shed house (43.33%). All farmers hadelectricity in their house and at least one mobile phone. Among the farmers 53.33%have good sanitary facility and 83.33% farmers had own tubewell for drinking waterfacility. 50% farmers received health service from village doctor and 33.33% farmersreceived technical training on fish farming.

Abstract:

In the majority of emerging nations, agriculture serves as the economic foundation. Agriculture also offers a huge population job options in addition to food and raw materials. Global climate change and agriculture are intricately related processes. The most important concern impacting the existence of the human race in the 21st century has been deemed to be climate change. It has the ability to affect agriculture both directly and indirectly. India's ecological and social systems are already under a great deal of stress as a result of the country's fast industrialization, urbanisation, and economic growth. A study was conducted in Junagadh, Jamnagar, Rajkot, Amreli and Porbandar districts of Gujarat state to assess the perception of farmers about climate change and to ascertain the association between the characteristics of farmers and their level of perception. A sample of 280 respondents was selected for present study.Majority (62.86 per cent) of farmers had medium level of perception about climate change, while 20.36 per cent and 16.78 per cent of farmers fall under the category of high level and low level of perception about climate change, respectively.There was positive and highly significant relationship between education, farming experience, access to weather forecast, extension participation, farm mass media, risk orientation, innovativeness, economic motivation, scientific orientation and decision making ability and their level of perception about climate change.Whereas, regression analysis of perception of farmers about climate change revealed that education, farming experience, access to weather forecast, innovativeness, scientific orientation and decision making ability were contributing significantly to perception about climate change.

Abstract:

Agriculture caused significant harm to the environment for a long time. More acreage, fertiliser and pesticides were used to boost the output. Sustainable development is one that meets present needs without compromising the ability of future generations to meet their own. According to study, a number of factors can affect a farmer's decision to adopt sustainable practises. The research investigation employed Ex-post-facto-research design as the event has already happened. The present study aimed to assess the profile characteristics of farmers on Paddy farming sustainability and adoption of recommended sustainable farming practices comprising the data from three different zones of the Telangana state. Three districts namely Nizamabad, Khammam and Nalgonda from each zone of Telangana state were selected for the purpose respectively during the year 2021. As these three districts account for Paddy area compared to other districts. Purposive sampling technique was employed for data collection from 216 Paddy growing farmers by standardized and pre-tested interview schedule. Findings revealed that majority of the farmers were middle-aged (54.62 %), educated up to primary school (25.19 %), semi-medium in land holdings (25.32 %), followed by possessed medium level of income (55.56 %), mass media exposure (73.14 %), extension contact (56.10 %), extension participation (73.60 %), management orientation (71.75 %), scientific orientation (58.10 %), innovativeness (81.00 %), economic motivation (67.50 %), decision-making pattern (62.51 %), value orientation (52.79 %), level of aspiration (64.35 %) and risk orientation (53.20 %), whereas high level of farming experience (60.18 %), high farming commitment (54.62 %) and high achievement motivation (51.86 %). The policymakers should instruct researchers, extension specialists, NGO’s and field workers to serve as advisors, facilitators and collaborators for inspiring and empowering farmers to actively participate in solving issues related to sustainable farming cultivation practises. Hence, these variables have to be considered in promoting farmers among the farming community in the long run.

Abstract:

This study assesses the sustainability of rice farming through the perspectives of farmer attributes and land ecosystem – sub-categorized as the socio-economic profile of farmers, resources, constraints, investments, and its economic contribution to the economic pursuits of families of farmers. It also proposes a program which can improve rice production in Bulacan, Philippines, and similar contexts. This study discusses the identified rice farming constraints such as inadequate capital, high cost of labor, inadequate supply of farm inputs, poor marketing outlet, high cost of pesticides, high cost of fertilizer, issues on land tenure system, ignorance on the existing rice farming programs of the government, poor storage facilities, high cost of transportation, pests and diseases, and climate change. The contributions of rice farming to the economic pursuits of families of farmers are analyzed in terms of their gross profit, savings, and family living expenditures such as food, clothing, recreation, personal item, health care, education, utilities, transportation, dwelling maintenance, and appliances/furniture. Lastly, the suggestions for sustainable and human health facilitating rice farming in developing countries are discussed.

Abstract:

The present study was taken up to investigate the relationship between the profile characteristics of televiewing farmers and the effectiveness of farm broadcast programmes. Andhra Pradesh state was selected purposively. Out of 13 districts of Andhra Pradesh, four districts were selected randomly. Two mandals from each district and two villages from each mandal were selected randomly. After listing out the total number of farmers who have television sets, 15 farmers from each village were chosen by simple random sampling method, there by the total sample size became 240. The primary data were collected by using pre – tested interview schedule. To convert the data into meaningful findings, statistical tools such as; Correlation coefficient (r) and Multiple Linear Regression (MLR) were used. The summary of the findings indicated that, out of sixteen profile characteristics selected, thirteen viz., age, education, farming experience, socio-economic status, innovativeness, mass media exposure, marketing orientation, risk orientation, economic orientation, scientific orientation, extension contact, social participation and training exposure had significant relationship with effectiveness of farm broadcasts. The other profile characteristics such as farm size, annual income and cropping intensity did not show any relationship. The MLR analysis found that all the 16 profile characteristics of televiewing farmers put together, explained about 78.64 per cent variation in the effectiveness of farm broadcasts. Remaining 21.36 per cent is due to the extraneous profile characteristics which were not considered under study. The profile characteristics namely socio-economic status, mass media exposure, risk orientation, economic orientation, scientific orientation, extension contact and annual income were found to be positively significant at 0.01 level of probability. The variable social participation found to be positively significant at 0.05 level of probability.

Abstract:

Climate variability and extreme climate events is one of the many challenges faced by fish farmers. The present study was carried out to assess and compare the socio-economic vulnerability and adaptations of fish farmers to climate variability and extreme climate events in arid and semi-arid lands of Central and Eastern parts of Kitui County, Kenya. Both study sites were purposively selected and the descriptive research design adopted. A total of 60 fish farming households were randomly selected to form the sample size for the study. The socio-economic vulnerability analysis of the fish farmers was based on an index constructed from carefully selected indicators for adaptive capacity. Principal Component Analysis was used to give weights to the indicators. The overall adaptive capacity index results revealed that possession of various assets varied between the two study sites, implying a spatial difference in socio-economic vulnerability between the two study sites. Regarding adaptation, results revealed that the level of adoption of various adaptation strategies to climate variability and extreme climate events also differed significantly between the two study sites and was subject to the adaptive capacity of the fish farmer. Therefore, this study recommends that the socio-economic vulnerability profile of the fish farmers inform any adaptation actions to be taken on fish farmers in arid and semi-arid lands

Abstract:

Krishi Vigyan Kendra's (KVKs) conducted Cluster Front Line Demonstrations (CFLDs) under the National Food Security Mission (NFSM) to showcase the productivity of newly released technologies on farmers' fields. These demonstrations aimed to disseminate various technologies and engage farmers and extension workers in farming and extension activities. The study focused on Chittoor district in Andhra Pradesh. For CFLDs beneficiary farmers, the study found that variables such as education, training, mass media exposure, innovativeness, scientific orientation, management orientation, economic orientation, and risk orientation had a significant positive relationship with the extent of adoption. However, age and farming experience showed a significant negative relationship. Farm size, extension contact, social participation, and achievement motivation were not significantly related to changes in yield level.In the case of non-beneficiary farmers, education, social participation, scientific orientation, management orientation, economic orientation, and achievement motivation were negatively significant, while age, farm size, farming experience, training, extension contact, mass media exposure, and innovativeness were not significantly related to changes in yield level. When considering all 14 independent variables together, they explained approximately 73.60% of the variation in yield level changes among beneficiary farmers and 55.20% among non-beneficiary farmers participating in CFLDs.

Abstract:

The study examined the adoption levels and economic benefits of IPM among rice farmers in South Sulawesi Province, Indonesia. The research was conducted in two main rice producing areas of the province, Soppeng and Maros Regencies. Simple random sampling was employed in selecting 20% of the total populations, resulting in sample sizes of 69 repondents in Soppeng and 52 respondents in Maros. A structured questionnaire was used in direct interview with the selected respondents to obtain data on their socio-economic profile, IPM implementation, and profit gained from IPM. Percentage was used to present the data. In both regencies, overall IPM adoption rates were high with most respondents were categorized as medium and high IPM adopters with adoption rates of 85.1% in Soppeng and 88.5% in Maros. The medium and high IPM adopters gained more economic profits of 26.9% in Soppeng and 16%% in Maros in comparison to the low IPM adopters. The high adoption rates indicated that although the nationwide IPM Program has ended in late 1990’s, there was a continuous technological transfer from older farmers who participated in IPM-FFS to younger farmer generation. In order to improve IPM implementation by the younger farmers, they need to be provided with intensive extension support for IPM innovations.

Cattle rearing in the Integrated Waste Disposal Area brings environmental pollution and reduces the comfort of livestock. This study aims to identify the condition of the cattle rearing profile, measurement of business feasibility, and analysis of the Total Economic Value of cattle existing values. The research location is in Ngablak Hamlet, Sitimulyo Village, Piyungan District, Bantul, Yogyakarta. The time of the study from August to November 2019. Sampling of farmers by census was 52 farmers. Data analysis with quantitative descriptive method. The results showed that farmers prefer with semi-intensive types for rearing and Simpo breeds. The biggest income is semi-intensive. Sustainability of cattle business is feasible from an economic and environmental if an intensive rearing is applied. If analyzed include the investment costs of feed, land, and cages, all maintenance systems are not feasible. The net benefit shows that if there is a cattle mortality, the farmer should be fined a minimum of that amount. Total Economic Value shows the value of cattle existing value assets in Ngablak Village annually. Overall, it is necessary to plan for shifting maintenance to an intensive system to maintain the existence and animal welfare of cattle as a resource input in the area
