Abstract:

Seed is the most fundamental and important ingredient for long-term agriculture. All other inputs respond to seed quality to a considerable amount, and it is believed that quality seed alone contributes 15–20 percent to overall yield, depending on the crop, and that this may be increased to 45 percent with efficient management of other inputs. The present study is aimed to evaluate the gender aspect in using hybrid vegetable seeds in Jammu district. Questionnaires were prepared to collect primary data from farmers. All the respondents were male and there is absolute nil participation of female in decision making regarding hybrid vegetable cultivation.
