Overview

Survey assesses knowledge and application of good agricultural practices among cucumber growers, revealing significant gaps.

Key Points

  • Only 25% of cucumber farmers in Bharatpur are aware of good agricultural practices (GAP), indicating a major knowledge deficit.
  • Despite low awareness, 70% of farmers applied recommended practices like planting appropriate varieties and using mulching techniques.
  • The study utilized binary logit regression analysis to explore factors affecting GAP awareness, finding no significant predictors.
  • Key barriers to GAP adoption include limited access to government services and insufficient knowledge and training among farmers.
