Final Report on Socio-economic Study of Village/Farmer:

 (This is to be based on the data collected by the student for the village and
selected farmer. He should write at least one para on location, institutional
facilities, population composition and cropping pattern of the village. Similar
report for the selected farmer should also be prepared.)

Observations on Contact Farmers:

Students will record their observation on following aspects:- (Quantity, Nature, Use
Pattern)

a) Resource base of the farmer

b) Technological Status of the farmer
c) Family budget and investment pattern of farmer
d) Marketing problems of the farmer
e) Constraints in adoption on technology
f) Farmers position against poverty line
