Jaipur district comprises of sixteen tehsils, out of which 3 tehsils viz., Dudu, Phulera and Phagi were selected purposely. Two gram panchayats were selected randomly from each tehsils. Two revenue villages were selected from each selected gram panchayat on the basis of random sampling method. Thus the total 12 villages were selected. Total 120 mungbean growing farmers (respondents) were selected randomly through proportional allocation to the size of sample. Among all the five categories of constraints the “Marketing constraints” (66.20 MPS) with highest intensity were found most important while “Financical constraints” (57.36 MPS) were found at last rank perceived by farmers or by the overall respondents in adoption of recommended cultivation practices of mungbean The constraints like “Lack of knowledge about plant protection measures” (Technical constraints), “High cost of insecticides and pesticides” (Financial constraints), “Lower Minimum Support Prices (MSP) of produce fixed by the Government” (Marketing constraints), “High losses during storage due to stored grain pests” (Storage constraints) and “Natural calamities” (General constraints) were perceived as major constraints by overall respondents in the adoption of recommended production technology of Mungbean.
