Exploratory analysis shows significant links between family size, education, and farm waste production in Punjab dairy farmers.
AbstractAn exploratory study was conducted in two districts viz; Ludhiana and Pathankot of Punjab to understand relationship between farm waste production and demographic profile of respondents. Sample size was 160 dairy farmers (80 from Ludhiana and 80 from Pathankot district) were selected through multistage random sampling. Education and family size were having significant (p<0.05) with farm waste production and Land holding, Type of dairy farm, Livestock holding as livestock equivalent were highly significant (p<0.01) with the production of farm waste at dairy farms. So, that as land holding increases, education status improves, large family size and greater herd size leading to more fam waste production at their dairy farms which tends towards commercial dairying.
