Abstract
The study was carried out in Hindaun block of Karauli district of Rajasthan. The Hindaun block was purposively selected because of large number of farmer participation in KVK’s training programme. The data regarding gain in knowledge and adoption level about improved Guar (Cluster bean) production technologies were recorded under two heads like; knowledge before training and knowledge after training. The findings of the study revealed that farmers had gained knowledge about Cluster bean production technology ranging from 13.75 per cent of land preparation to 70.0 percent of used high yielding varieties after training programmes. The study shows that the none of farmers were following the improved practices of cluster bean production like soil testing, soil treatment, seed treatment and seed rate and spacing before training programme whereas, after training programme they were adopting seed treatment (86.25%), seed rate and spacing (62.5 %), soil testing (52.5%) and soil treatment (36.25 %). The study also revealed that they were adopting the cluster bean production technologies ranging from 11.25 per cent of storage practices to 86.25 per cent of seed treatment after training programmes
