It was found that 32.38% of grape growers were completed middle schooling and very less number of grape growers’ i.e.6.66% were degree holders. Even 12.38% of grape growers were illiterate. Most of the grape growers ’i.e. 49.52% were having semi medium land and 39.04% had small land holding but none of them were marginal farmers.
Family size of the grape growers found that 46%of them were having family size between 4 to 6 members and 26% of them were having more than 6 members in the family. Most of the farmer’s i.e. 64.76% started farming from 12 to 27 years back hence their experience was quite better.Only 20.95% of growers were having more than 27 years of experience. It is found that 67.62% of grape growers were having medium extension participation. Very less percent of grape growers i.e.14.29 were having high extension participation. About 18.09% were having low extension participation. It was clear from the study, 97.14 percent of the grape growers were possessing television and 76.19% of them, were using television for viewing news. Radio was owned by 93.33% and it was used to listen news and agricultural programmes.
Farm magazine was subscribed by less number of grape growers i.e. 33.33%. As above discussed in education, most of the farmers were completed middle schooling hence this might be the reason for less subscription of farm magazine.
