abstract
This study looks into the farming techniques, knowledge acquisition, and socio-profile standing of farmers in India's Punjab region's rural communities. Face-to-face interviews and structured questionnaires were used to gather data from farmers living in five villages as part of a cross sectional survey design. The studying analysis is based upon the interest and knowledge gain by farmer. Whole data is concluded in result as which village has maximum number of knowledge gainer. Following video presentations on sugar cane varieties, farmers showed a discernible improvement in knowledge, demonstrating the effectiveness of multimedia tools in agricultural education. As video shows the enhanced cultivars are released to boost the yield of sugarcane. Certain cultivars, such as Co Pb-96 and Co-0118, mature early and can withstand red rot. Some kinds, such as Co-05011, CoJ-64, are mid-maturing and have good sucrose content and ratooning potential. Co-238 and Co-0118 are two kinds that are primarily produced in Punjab; they have a high sugar content and are resistant to water lodging. The main goal is to educate farmers about the varieties of sugarcane.
