摘要：The study was conducted in four districts of Kerala covering a sample size of 208 homegardens using multi-stage stratified random sampling technique representing the three major agro climatic zones viz.lowland (problem zone),highland and midland.The primary objective of the study was to identify the technology needs of the homegarden farmers.Maximum technology need was reported for unexploited and under exploited horticultural tree crops which was on par with fruit tree crops (mango and jack) and followed by beverage crops.Processing,value addition and storage requirements were immediate technology needs of the homegarden farmers.Drainage and soil amendment technologies were reported to be important for Alappuzha homegarden farmers.
