A Study was conducted to ascertain the level of Acquired Skills of trainees with respect to vermicompost production technology of training imparted by K.V.K. Birauli, Farmers were selected from the four villages namely Morsand, Harpur, Chandauli, and Jagdishpur under Pusa block of Samastipur district and imparted training on vermicompost production technology. 40 trained and 40 untrained farmers from these villages were selected for study purpose making the sample size up to 80 farmers. Findings of the study shows that Mean score on skill acquired in vermicomposting technology of trained farmers was 37.30 compared to that of untrained farmers being at only 10.15 out of a possible score of 100. The mean difference was 27.15, which is statistically significant at 0.01 level of probability indicating that the skill acquired among trained farmers was significantly higher than that of untrained farmers. With respect skill acquired in various component of vermicompost technology, majority of trained farmers (40-80 percent) were found to ‘partially competent’ on eighteen of the twenty five competencies/skills in vermicompost technology. Among the untrained farmers, majority farmers (ranging from 72.5 to 92.5 percent) were found to possess ‘les competency’ in all the twenty five components of competencies/skills in vermicompost technology.
