It is well recognized that the introduction of
standardized technological packages has contributed a
lot to the development of crop and dairy enterprises.
These packages are based on the logic of top down
technology transfer, which resulted in the weakening
of local knowledge. It is observed that only limited
number of technologies generated by National
Agricultural Research System is being adopted by
farmers, which indicate that the farmers are still in
touch with their Indigenous Technical Knowledge
(ITK). In this context, it is pertinent to identify and
preserve these traditional technologies in order to
sustain the productivity and protect the ecosystem. It
will also help to develop alternatives to ecologically
damaging agricultural practices, which will lead to
sustainability in the long run. With this backup, a
study was undertaken to identify, document and
validate the ITKs practiced by the farmers in the
coastal areas of Tamil Nadu.
