c) Institutional constraints: Non availability of sufficient budget and staff for effective and successful<br />
implementation of different schemes formulated for desired improvement in the Department. Insuffient<br />
funds for mobility for execution of different programmes being implemental.<br />
At research stations non availability of sufficient land for experiments, particularly for basic seed<br />
production. Dependency on farmers fields may leads to severl purity problems in due course of time. Lack of<br />
sufficient scientific as well as supporting staff, mobility, well developed lands, lack of co-ordination between<br />
different departments and allied departments.<br />
c) Socio- economic constraints: Still many farm families are illiterate/ have low level of literacy, as a<br />
result there is a less scope for knowing the developments in agriculture. They cultivate other crops also along<br />
with rice crop which leads to divertion of concentration in attending the required operations. Many number<br />
of times, timely availability of farm labour poses threat for cultivation of this crop. Low investment capacity<br />
of farmers and non-availability of sufficient timely credit is another important constraint.<br />
