Knowledge and adoption of improved post harvest technologies of wheat by farmers

Wheat (Triticum aestivum) is a crucial cereal crop for the majority of the world's population. It is about two billion people's most important staple food (36 percent of the world population). Majority of the respondent (55.38%) had medium level of adoption of improved post-harvest technology of wheat. the respondents (54.61%) had medium knowledge level about improved post-harvest technology of wheat. knowledge of farmers about post-harvest of wheat crops the study reveals that the famers having maximum knowledge of marketing followed by Rat control, Cleaning, grading, packing, storage pest management, ground which method of drying, harvesting, threshing and storage. Future grain storage technology will also become more intelligent and environmentally friendly. Knowledge transfer and active farmer and community engagement to overcome the adoption barriers are critical, particularly in developing countries.

Abstract

Wheat (Triticum aestivum) is a crucial cereal crop for the majority of the world's population. It is about two billion people's most important staple food (36 percent of the world population). Majority of the respondent (55.38%) had medium level of adoption of improved post-harvest technology of wheat. the respondents (54.61%) had medium knowledge level about improved post-harvest technology of wheat. knowledge of farmers about post-harvest of wheat crops the study reveals that the famers having maximum knowledge of marketing followed by Rat control, Cleaning, grading, packing, storage pest management, ground which method of drying, harvesting, threshing and storage. Future grain storage technology will also become more intelligent and environmentally friendly. Knowledge transfer and active farmer and community engagement to overcome the adoption barriers are critical, particularly in developing countries.
