Abstract
The development of India is depending on agriculture and it is engaging about 70 per cent of its population directly or indirectly. It contributes nearly 37 per cent of the net national product and account for a sizable share of total value of the country's export. The present rate of agriculture production could be doubled if the available technology is appropriately transferred to the farmers for its adoption. It is however reported that not more than 30 to 40 per cent of the technologies have gone to the farming communities so far, even though there is strong network of extension mechanism operating for accelerating agriculture production. The study was conducted in Indore Block of Indore District with 120 vegetable growers of 10 villages which were selected randomly and considered for study on the basis of larger area coverage. Maximum vegetable growers had low extent of adoption of the eco-friendly management practices followed by medium and high extent of adoption of the eco-friendly management practices respectively. Keywords- Eco-friendly farming, Ecological balance, Agrochemical, Sustainable farming
