The study was conducted during 1993 in Navamota watershed in Khedbrahmma taluka of Sabarkantha district of Gujarat to assess the adoption behaviour of farmers towards soil and water conservation (SWC) practices. The majority of farmers are tribals (86%) with small and fragmented land holdings. Agriculture is their main occupation and source of livelihood. The study revealed that the contour farming; intercropping; contour bunding, marginal bunding and agroforestry were the most favoured SWC practices by tribal farmers. The adoption level of SWC practices by tribals in the Navamota watershed was medium. The education and communication behaviour were found significant with adoption behaviour of tribal farmers in the Navamota watershed. Not Available |
