Sweet orange is an important fruit crop that sustains the livelihood of many farmers in India.

This book, based on a field study in the Jalna district of Maharashtra, India, examines the extent of adoption, knowledge levels, and constraints faced by sweet orange growers. Using an ex-post facto research design with data from 120 farmers, the study explores how socio-economic factors such as education, landholding, income, extension contact, and risk orientation influence adoption behaviour.
