Vegetables are the most important diet for human’s health, because they possess high nutritive value
and are rich sources of carbohydrates, proteins, vitamins and minerals. Kullu Valley of Himachal
Pradesh was selected as the research area because it has temperate and good conditions for vegetable
production. The area is suitable for production of different types of vegetation and their breeding.
Himachal Pradesh has 12 districts. Out of the 12 districts, Kullu District was selected purposely. It
covers five community development blocks namely Manali, Kullu, Banjar, Ani and Nirmand. Out of
these five Blocks, two blocks (Kullu and Manali) were selected. Out of these two blocks, 10 villages
were selected randomly in each block with the help of random number table. From the comprehensive
list of farmers according to Gram Panchayts from 20 villages, 30 vegetable growing farmers (Small,
Medium and Large) from each village were selected randomly. Thus, 600 farmers were included in this
study. Data were collected with the help of developed and pre-tested questionnaire. Suitable statistical
tools were applied for analysis of primary data to get the final results. All the cabbage growers had
complete knowledge about the selection of soil, preparation of soil, spacing and harvesting. Majority of
the respondents had complete knowledge about irrigation method (97.33%). Majority of the respondents
had completely adopted inter-cultural operation (67.00%) and transplanting (63.00%). All the
respondents suggested that the prices of improved varieties seeds be made available at reasonable
rates in the open market.
