Abstract

The study was conducted in three tehsils (Padadhari, Rajkot and Wankaner) of Rajkot district of the Gujarat state. The tehsils were selected on the basis of maximum milk supply in liters/day. Out of three tehsils, 15 villages which supply milk above 100 litters were purposively selected and from these selected villages 150 farmers engaged in dairy business were randomly selected. The house wife of farmer was considered as respondent for the study. Thus 150 women were selected as respondents for the study. The responses were obtained on three point continuum namely most needed, some what needed and not needed. The findings of the study clearly indicate that the training is essential for less educated women those who are in the profile of low income, small land holding and less participation in different social organization.
