Abstract

The study aims to assess the knowledge level on Sustainable Sugarcane Initiative (SSI) of sugarcane growers in Villupuram district. It was found that more than three fourths of the respondents had high level of knowledge on SSI. It was inferred from the study that the awareness created through trainings, demonstrations, field days and exposure visits under Tamil Nadu Irrigated Agriculture Modernization and Water Bodies Restoration and Management project might be the reason for high level of technology-wise knowledge on SSI among the beneficiary respondents.
