| Abstract/Description: | The research work was undertaken to compare the adoption of scientific pig productionpractices by small scale pig farmers in Assam in the adopted villages of ICAR-NationalResearch Centre on Pig, Guwahati and the non-adopted villages. A composite adoptionindex was developed for measuring the adoption level of small-scale pig farmers. Theprimary data was collected from 360 small scale pig farmers equally from both the groupsduring 2020-2021. The data was analyzed using Mann-Whitney “U” test and observeda significant difference in adoption level between both the groups. In the adopted villages,50.56 per cent of farmers were under high adoption category followed by 48.89 per centin medium category whereas in non-adopted villages, about 88.33 per cent of therespondents were in the low adoption category and 10.56 per cent in medium adoptioncategory. The independent factors like education, experience in pig farming, family size,herd size, annual income, extension contact and social participation were positivelycorrelated with adoption level. It was observed that the adoption level of scientific pigproduction practices by small scale pig farmers in adopted villages is significantly higherthan the adoption level of non-adopted villages |
