Abstract:
Specialised homegarden is a system that can overtire current limitations of time, space and capital that should be triangulated with effective extension interventions at ground level for the overall remunerativeness and sustainability of homegardens. They can accomplish sustainability in terms of appropriate technology need analysis and proper interventions with specialized components. The study was conducted in the Thiruvanathapuram district comprising five agro ecological units with sixty specialized homegarden systems. The results revealed farmers undertaking aquaculture (1.57) and miscellaneous specializations (1.75) perceived the need for more technologies compared to crop and animal husbandry components.
