1. Title : Quality Improvement of preserved Pickle (Mixed Pickle and pickle of cauliflower).
2. Problem definition : Poor quality of pickle prepared due to-
Inappropriate use of ingredients and spices
Unawareness about sterilization of containers /jars, blanching ,proper storage conditions &handling
Lack of Technical know how and skills
3. Details of technologies selected for assessment
: T1 : Without blanching+ unsterilized containers, oilseed and rapeseed (Farmers Practise) T2 :Blanching +Mustard oil @150-200 ml, Rape seed @10gm,Mustard seed
@ 5-10 gm /kg+ Sterilized jars T3 : Blanching +mustard oil @300-400 ml ,Rape seed @10-
15gm/kg+Vinegar@50 ml, Sodium benzoate @ 2.0 gm ,Sterilized jars
4. Source of technology : CSK HPKV Palampur
5. Production system : Skill improvement and awareness
6. Thematic area Value addition
7. Performance of Technology with performance indicators
: Based on the sensory and taste evaluation on various parameters like taste, flavour, texture, appearance and self life: Sterilization of containers for 15 minutes in boiling water+ blanching of vegetables 5-10 minutes +addition of 300-400 ml mustard oil,+50 ml vinegar + 2.0 gm sodium benzoate +10-15 gm rape seed per kg of raw material along with other common spices resulted in better organolyptic qualities of pickle like taste, texture, colour flavour and increase the shelf life of product from 6-12 months.
8. Final recommendation for micro level situation
: Farmers should practice ,Sterilization of containers for 15 minutes in boiling water+ blanching of vegetables 5-10 minutes +addition of 300-400 ml mustard oil,+ addition of 50 ml vinegar + 2.0 gm sodium benzoate +10-15 gm rape seed per kg of raw material along with other common spices for preparing pickle for better quality and self life

Title: Upliftment of socio-economic status of farmers through mushroom cultivation
Mushroom farming is gaining popularity among farmers and youths in Himachal as the state
offers congenial environment for its growth. Earlier, mushrooms were considered as a delicacy but now
it seems to have invaded the food habits of Himachalies especially during winters when local grown
mushrooms are available in abundance, feel experts. Earlier people used to grow different varieties of
mushrooms to supplement their income but lately mushroom cultivation has been adopted at
commercial level in different parts of the state. This has not only generated self employment
opportunities for many youth but also engaged others in associated activities. As there is a huge gap in
APR 2017-18 Page 60
60
demand and supply of mushrooms, these are also imported from neighboring states also. The socio-
economic status of the marginal and landless farmers is poor in Hamirpur district. The climatic
conditions in the district for mushroom growing are a God gift. Under natural conditions three types of
mushroom viz., button mushroom, oyster mushroom and milky mushroom can be grown around the
year.
KVK Intervention:
The Krishi Vigyan Kendra Hamirpur put the efforts to harvest such natural conditions for
mushroom cultivation and directly enhanced the farmer’s income through mushroom cultivation. All
the extension methods like on – campus, off-campus training programmers, value addition,
demonstration, literature, film shows and exposure visits have been adopted by the Krishi Vigyan
Kendra to provide ultimate benefit to the farming community of the district. To create the interest of the
farmers towards mushroom cultivations low cost bamboo structures were also suggested to the
interested framers. Different self help groups are also constituted so that the frames can work together
and send their produce in the market with handsome prices. Learning by doing is one of the best tools in
KVK/extension system which the KVK had followed and exposure visits were also conducted within
and outside the district to get the advanced knowledge on the subject.
APR 2017-18 Page 61
61
Output:
The Krishi Vigyan Kendra played their significant role in the income generation through
mushroom cultivation beside other enterprises. The farmers were advised to grow three types of
mushroom in the district viz., button, oyster and milky mushroom around the year under natural
conditions. The farmers of the district were encouraged for this income generating entrepreneur by
providing the knowledge about the facilities available in the state/district for the raw materials.
Compost producing units are located in entire state both in public and private sector, yet the farmers
face problem in procuring compost at the right time for mushroom cultivation. KVK made their linkage
with Horticulture Department who also providing subsidy on compost for marginal farmers but it is
available at a rate of Rs. 7 to Rs. 8 per kg from private producers.
Mushroom production enhanced the livelihood security of marginal farmers through generating
average annual income of Rs. 30950 and 3-4% employment generation for hill farmers. Value addition
technology can reduce the post harvest losses and increase shelf life of this most demanded nutritionally
rich commodity. Good marketing infrastructure, timely availability of necessary inputs, technological
knowhow and financial support to the farmers may encourage adopting the technology in large scale
and increased production and productivity of the mushrooms.
Outcome and Impact:
In every small vegetable shop in the villges, packets of mushroom can be seen in the distrct all
aropund the year. This is only because of technical intervention and guidance of KVK Hamirpur.
Most of the self help groups are putting their effords on value addition of mushroom to fetch high
prices.
Horizontal Expansion of mushroom cultivation
Mushroom production being an indoor activity, labour intensive and high profit venture provides
ample opportunities for gainful employment of small, farmers, landless laborers, women and
APR 2017-18 Page 62
62
unemployed youth. Therefore, promotion of mushroom cultivation shall a step to meet nutritional needs
to reduce malnutrition and providing livelihood to landless poor. KVK Hamirpur mainly emphasized on
trainings and demonstrations and continuous intevension of technical knowhow. “Seeing is believing”
and “learning by doing” are the main focus extension areas of KVK Hamirpur due to which about 9 Self
Hepl Groups (SHGs) are working this aspect and earning a handsome amount by keeping 50-100 bags
per grower.
Three Self Help Groups were also formed by KVK viz., Ajivika, Shiv Shakti and Sarswati. In
these groups 10 persons were trainees and now they became the trainers of mushroom production. With
the continuous efforts of KVK there are 104 growers in the district and earning a handsome amount to
run their livelihood.

10.2. Cases of large scale adoption
(Please furnish detailed information for each case)
1. Azolla an innovative fodder/feed resource for livestock: There is an acute shortage of feed
and fodder for diary animals and shortage of green fodder has been estimated to be 30-35 per
cent in lean period in lower region of Himachal Pradesh. The Krishi Vigyan Kendra,
Hamirpur has searched an alternative to green fodder and concentrates led to a natural gift as
an Azolla, which has observed its high palatability and yield in milk especially in cattle on
farmer level under rain fed condition during lean period. KVK introduced and spread the
technology for Azolla cultivation in the district. For the last five years KVK Hamirpur –
Himachal Pradesh had organized 126 trainings in all six blocks of district Hamirpur in
collaboration with the department of Animal Husbandry and NGOs through capacity
building programme along with demonstrations on the demands of farmers. As a result of
Azolla feeding, the milk production of milch animals increased and supply of green fodder
during lean period was maintained.
2. ‘Palam’ traps an eco-friendly tool for management of fruit fly : Fruit fly is one of the
major insect pests of vegetable and fruit crops in Himachal Pradesh. Several control tactics
have been tested at university level through various trials and demonstrations conducted in
collaboration with Krishi Vigyan Kendra, Hamirpur. The use of pheromone traps for fruit fly
has proved to be success in reducing the pest population over the years. This technology is
also eco-friendly. This is highly beneficial for the farming community which was otherwise
employing blanket application of insecticides for controlling heavy fruit fly infestation in the
district.
10.3 Details of impact analysis of KVK activities carried out during the reporting period
