Abstract

The objective of the present study was to identify the component wise knowledge of respondents regarding fruits processing and preservation activities. The study was conducted in Badgaon and Girwa panchayat samities of Udaipur district of Rajasthan state of India. From each panchayat samiti, two villages were included in the study. The sample consisted of randomly selected 100 rural women, 25 from each village. Interview method was used for data collection. Frequency and percentage were used for analysis of data. Finding of the study reveals that respondents had poor knowledge in fruit processing and preservation activities namely- Fruit selection (70.66 Mean Percent Score), Washing (56.75 Mean Percent Score), grading (36.75 Mean Percent Score), packaging (26.29 Mean Percent Score), marketing (22 Mean Percent Score) and storage (16.30 Mean Percent Score). This might be due to lack of knowledge among respondents regarding these components.
