Abstract

In India, KVKs conducted trainings at various levels for which the programmes are designed based on the clientele problems and their needs and interests. The success of the training depends on training effectiveness and impact of the training. In Karur District, Out of eight blocks, only two blocks were purposively selected for this study entitled on Developing training index and preference of training methods for KVK training programmes among Karur district farmers in Tamil Nadu. Totally 300 respondents were selected for the study through random sampling method. The trainees of KVK were selected and studied how far the learned technologies/skills were utilized by the farmers in their back home situations. Based on the thesis feedback, training index was prepared for Crop production, Horticulture, Plant protection and animal science oriented trainings. Majority of the respondents needed integrated crop management related trainings in both the agricultural and horticultural crops. In both the blocks dairy component was the major one. So, more number of respondents preferred dairy farming related trainings. Majority of the respondents have ranked Demonstration / Hands on experience as their first priority of training method followed by field visit. It is also suggested that, KVK should give more importance on ICT related trainings to farmers.
