PERCEIVED EFFECTIVENESS OF PADDY PROMOTION PROGRAMMES UNDER DECENTRALIZED PLANNING PROCESS

Abstract

The study entitled “Perceived effectiveness of paddy promotion programmes under decentralized planning process” was conducted in Thrissur district of Kerala, India. Ex-post facto research design was followed. Thirty beneficiary farmers, each from three major rice producing gramapanchayats of the district viz; Chelakkara, Adat and Arimpur were randomly selected using multi stage sampling technique. Kruskal Wallis test was employed to rank and assess the perception of the beneficiaries. The analysis revealed that the beneficiary farmers from Adat panchayat had a greater perception score, followed by Chelakkara panchayat. The result draws special attention to the mean perception score of the beneficiaries of Arimpur panchayat, which was very low as compared to the beneficiaries of other two studied panchayats. Based on the research findings some suggestions are put forth.
