Most of the seeds used by farmers for rice cultivation are farm saved and during seed production some selected seed production techniques are used. In this study attempt was made to examine the farmers’ knowledge level on recommended farming techniques and its relation with socio-personal variables like age, education, caste, occupation, contact with extension agencies, utilization of information from mass media and land owning status of farmers. Knowledge of seed growers was significantly associated with age, caste and utilization of mass media sources. Farmers of higher age group had acquired higher level of knowledge on seed production techniques. School and college education had no significant impact on this knowledge level. Out of the nineteen methods included in the study, majority of the farmers had adopted 17 methods with varying intensity except registering the crop for certification and maintaining isolation distance. The reasons for least adoption of these methods may be due to high cost involved in the methods, inadequate facilities, non availability of production materials and inadequate knowledge and skill.
