Cent per cent of the respondents fell in the category of fully adopted with respect to seed treatment. 96.00 per cent of the respondents fully adopted recommended time of sowing, pest management practices & time of harvest; while the remaining 4.00 per cent fell in the category of partially adopted. 90.00 per cent of the respondents fully adopted recommended methods of sowing, time of fertilizer application & weeding practices; while the remaining 10.00 per cent fell in the category of partially adopted. 88.00 per cent of the respondents fully adopted gap filling, while the remaining 12.00 per cent fell in the category of partially adopted. With respect to crop rotation 90.00 per cent of the respondents fell in the category of fully adopted, followed by partially adopted (6.00%), and not adopted (4.00%).
