Abstract

An improved wadi palleting gadget has been developed which is capable of producing 32 wadis at a time. The output of the machine is about 8 times more than that of the traditional manual mrthod. The acceptability of the modified gadget was studied in the rural areas of Haryana in comparison to the existing wadi making gadget. The rural women considered labor intensity to be the most important attribute for the acceptability of the gadget. In this case cultural compatibility had the least score.
