AE-94-39 A thesis submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Science, School of Environment, Resources & Development Thesis (M.Sc.) - Asian Institute of Technology, 1994 The study was carried out with the aim to assess the progress made by the FSR program at Naldung with gender perspective. The analysis is based on the empirical evidence from three wards ofNaldung VDC which were the target wards ofFSR program and other three wards of the ~ame VDC where FSR was not introduced. The findings show that FSR has positive impact in increasing productivity of rice, wheat, millet and potato which are the major crops of the area however the yield of maize is not significantly high. FSR had been successful in making farmers aware of the improved varieties of crops, recommended practices for crop and livestock. The gap between awareness and adoption of improved varieties of crops is not so wide. However a wide gap is observed between awareness and adoption in recommended practices in crop and livestock production systems. The analysis of people's awareness in the improved technologies recommended in the area was not significantly different so FSR program has been successful in making both genders equally aware though there is need to incorporate women concern to increase wider adoption of technologies. The major contribution of male and female in cultivation of four major crops (rice, wheat, maize and millet) showed that women work significantly higher than men and it was found that women work more in the target area than in the control area. The farmers attitude towards FSR program was found to be positive. Women farmers were found to be less involved in training and other extension activities. With adequate supply of inputs, credit facilities, extension activities involving both genders and labor saving technologies for women will help to increase the production and income than the existing.
