Groundnut (Arachis hypogea) is one of the important oilseed crop due to its nutritional value
and high consumption all over the world. India ranks second in groundnut production in the world.
Groundnut seeds contains (40–56%) edible oil, (20–30%) protein, (10–20%) carbohydrate and several
nutritional components. There is a gap between the yield obtained in demonstrations plots and farmers’
fields. There are several reasons that contribute for these yield gaps, non- adoption of recommended
technologies is one of the major reason. The reasons for non-adoption may be due to low knowledge and
other socio-economic constraints encountered by the farmers. The present study was conducted in
Mahabubnagar district of Telangana State. A total of 60 respondents were selected from 8 villages of
Koilkonda and Mohammadabad mandals by simple random sampling method. Majority (56.7%) of
groundnut farmers belonged to medium level of adoption. The characteristics like age had negative and non significant relationship with extent of adoption of technologies while size of landholding, annual income,
farming experience, irrigation potential, social participation, input acquisition pattern, achievement
motivation, risk taking ability, market intelligence had positive an significant relationship with extent of
adoption technologies and education, annual income, information seeking behaviour and knowledge had
positive and highly significant relationship with extent of adoption pre- and post- harvest management
technologies of groundnut crop.
