2. TITLE :
A STUDY ON ADOPTION OF
VERMICOMPOSTING TECHNOLOGY FOR
LIVELIHOOD IMPROVEMENT OF FARMERS IN
JAIPUR REGION .
3. INTRODUCTION :
.Vermicompost is highly nutritive and a
powerful plant growth promoter and protector
and is scientifically proving to be a miracle
plant growth promoter. It is rich in NPK,
micronutrients, beneficial soil microbes and
also contains plant growth hormones and
enzymes secreted by earthworms
.Vermicompost retains nutrients for long time
and also protect crops from pests and
diseases. It has high moisture holding
capacity and hence also reduces the use of
water for irrigation by 40-50%.
4. To analysis the efficiency of vermicompost on crop yield and soil fertility
.
To study the factors influencing the rate of adoption of vermicompost
technology.
To see the impact of vermicompost production on income and
employment generation.
OBJECTIVE :
5. Review of literature :
Aski and Hirevenkanagoudar (2010) observed that most of the
respondents 57 percent had low level of income generation at the
starting point of the work but after two years it consistently
increase in income and employment.
Meena and Meena (2012) it has now been realized that the
intensive use of chemical in chemical in crop production has led to
degradation of land and there is need to develop ecofriendly and
prudent technology for preparing natural fertilizer .
6. Research gap :
To find out the required amount of vermicompost should be used for
high yield .
Market analysis of vermicompost .
Changes face by farmer in their livelihood after adopting
vermicompost technology.
