Abstract

A study was conducted to assess the spread and acceptance of ICAR-IIHR released annona Hybrid–Arka Sahan in 3 major states such as Karnataka, Andhra Pradesh and Rajasthan. From each state, predominant annona growing district was purposively selected. Using multistage sampling methodology, 60 annona growers were selected. The data was collected using pre-tested interview schedule and analyzed by using appropriate statistical tools. The results revealed that Arka Sahan was spread in 12.50 per cent of total area under annona production in Tamil Nadu, followed by 9.78 per cent in Karnataka, 1.60 per cent in Rajasthan and 0.28 per cent in Andhra Pradesh. Higher pulp recovery (90.00 %) and higher productivity (76.67 %) were the major reasons for adoption of Arka Sahan variety. Non availability of quality planting material (96.67 %) and drudgery in doing hand pollination (86.67 %) were the major constraints faced by the farmers in adoption of Arka Sahan.
