Abstract:
A study was conducted using the data from 120 sheep farmers in 24 villages of Mahabubnagar district of Telangana state to constraints prioritization in sheep rearing, representing all the four mandals were chosen adopting Simple random sampling method. Delphi technique was adopted to assess and prioritization of constraints faced by sheep farmers in the study area on sheep rearing. 82 constraints on sheep rearing were collected from the published sources and these identified 82 constraints were sent to the identified group of experts to obtain a broad range of opinion on every constraint for further classification through Google forms. After 1st round scrutiny, out of 82 constraints whichever fell ≥2.34 weighted mean were subjected to further scrutiny, thus the authors selected 47 constraints. During 2nd round scrutiny the constraints whichever fell ≥ 2.33 weighted mean were selected and subjected to further scrutiny. Same procedure was used for final selection of the prioritized constraints; whichever fell ≥2.29 weighted mean were included in the final list of constraints. Thus a total of 18 constraints were selected to be redressed through Mobile Extension Advisory Services (MEAS).
