Participatory Rural Appraisal (PRA) is an effective tool to understand the technology adoption profile in a cropping system, to get first-hand information about their needs, resources available, identify location specific problems and researchable issues and ultimately to come up with tangible possible solutions drawn as an action plan. The present study was undertaken in Pullagoundanpudur village of Coimbatore district, Tamil Nadu state. The PRA tools used include transect walk, agro-ecological mapping, social mapping, time trend, seasonal calendar, gender analysis, time line, livelihood analysis, technology mapping, consequence diagram, problem – solving tree etc. The major constraints identified were market price fluctuation, water scarcity/ground water availability at high depth, erratic electricity supply, non-availability of labourers for agricultural activities, rhizome rot of turmeric, wilt in chilli and tomato, banana lodging and uneven maturity. Based on the problems identified, suitable solutions were arrived in consultation with subject matter experts and progressive farmers. Not Available |
