“…The outcome of the present study are somewhat in line with the study of Rathod [13] which reported that majority of the respondents had medium level of favorable attitude towards green fodder Cultivation. The findings of the study are contrary to the study of Javeed et al [14] who reported that about 41.66 per cent of respondents had low favourable attitude towards the feeding of green fodder crops followed by a high (35.84%) and Medium (22.50%) favourable attitude towards the feeding of green fodder crops.…”

The present study was carried out in 2020 with the aim of assessing farmer's attitude towards improved fodder production technology in Jhansi district of Bundelkhand region. An ex post Facto research design was used in the present study. Three villages from Babina block were selected purposively for investigation of farmer’s attitude towards various fodder based technological intervention. From each village, 20 farmers were purposively selected. Thus, a total of 60 farmers were selected for the present study. The results revealed that majority of the respondents belonged in middle age category (58.33%), more than one third had middle class education (36.67%), medium family size (53.34%), semi-medium land holding (41.67%), percentage of the respondents involved in dairy+crop farming (100%), medium herd size (53.33%), medium experience in dairy farming (51.67%) and medium annual income i.e. Rupees 155000 to 350000 (53.34%). The results revealed that majority of the participants who had high, moderate and low attitude towards improved fodder production technologies were 16.67, 23.33 and 15.00% respectively. It was concluded that, there was an inclination of positive response and concern for improved fodder technologies among respondents and vast majority of the respondents (85.00 %) had a moderately to highly favorable attitude.

“…Milk price has a negative impact on the probability of adopting Napier forage among sample farmers. Javeed et al (2020) conducted personal interviews with dairy farmers in the Northeast Transition Zone of Karnataka, India, and found that group size, land holdings, annual income, distance to veterinary institutions, extension participation, decision-making ability, scientific orientation, and economic variables, such as orientation and risk orientation, were significantly associated with attitudes toward green forage crop cultivation. Age and education level were negatively correlated with attitudes toward green forage crop cultivation.…”

IntroductionThis study analyzes the influence of risk preference on the forage planting behavior of farmers in the agro-pastoral zone from three aspects-whether or not to plant forage, the scale of forage planting, and the duration of forage planting—and pays attention to the indirect effect of credit on the farmers' forage planting behavior, as well as the heterogeneity of the influence of risk preference on the forage planting behavior of farmers from the perspectives of different farming scales, types of farmers, and differences between generations.MethodsExperimental economics, a two-stage model, is used to analyze this problem.Results and conclusionThe results show that, first, risk preference can significantly promote farmers' forage planting probability, expand forage planting scale, and increase forage planting duration. Specifically, when risk preference increases by one unit, the probability of farmers choosing to plant forage increases by 7.8%, the planting scale increases by 0.205 hm2, and the planting duration increases by 0.519 years. This conclusion remained robust after changing the explanatory variables. Second, risk preference not only directly affects farmers' forage planting behavior but also indirectly affects farmers' forage planting behavior by influencing farmers' participation in credit. Third, heterogeneity analysis shows that risk preference has a significant effect on forage planting behavior among farmers with a medium breeding degree, among pure farmers and concurrent farmers, as well as middle-aged and elderly farmers.
