Abstract

The present study was undertaken by selecting Krishi Vigyan Kendras functioning in Rajasthan. Four Krishi Vigyan Kendras were selected as per the criteria from three institutions-SKRAU, CAZRI & NGO. The study found that the facilities developed in selected KVKs were not alike and differ among one another. KVK-B (KVK, Badagaon) a NGO KVK got highest points in the facilities developed among selected KVKs, followed by SKRAU, KVK-2 (KVK, Banswara) 30/40. The results emphasize the need for better infrastructural facilities to all KVKs for the effective performance.
