The study deals with the Training need assessment of banana cultivators in Tuli block under Mokokchung district hailing from the state of Nagaland. Structured interview schedule was prepared to collect the primary data of the respondents. Nagaland is a state of agriculture and more than half of the population depends on agricultural activities for livelihood. In Nagaland, Banana is popularly grown due to its favourable climatic condition and soil suitability and also a good source of healthy nutrition and a stable means for high income generation. Majority of the respondents, (68.33 %) had ‘medium’ level training needs towards banana cultivation. Where as, based on an overall rank obtained, the ‘training need’ was found to be highest in respect of pest and diseases management (I) followed by irrigation schedule(II), land preparation(III), nutrient management (IV), spacing (V), post harvest management technique (VI), harvesting (VII), seed and sowing (VIII) and intercultural operation (IX). Keywords: Training needs, banana cultivation and knowledge level. 1. INTRODUCTION: The word "banana" is a general term implementing a number of species or hybrids in the genus Musa of the family Musaceae known simply as the banana family. 1“Bananas are now cultivated pan tropically in more countries than any other fruit crop in the world” (Morton 1987). Human resource development is largely associated with “training” as one of its main component in carrying out the mission of achieving its goal of “development”. Training is undeniably a dynamic and powerful tool to impart desired set of knowledge, skill or attitude into a person or a group of people at any level. But to make the training more effective and desirable it is important to know the specific need and requirement of the trainees/farmers beforehand. This process is known as Training Need Assessment. According to the International Network for the Improvement of Banana and Plantain (INEBAP) 2“India is the largest producer of banana accounting to about 23 % of global output, about three times share of the next country Brazil with an annual production of 16.91 million tonnes from 490.7 million hectares and accounts to 16.65 % of world production. In Nagaland, banana is cultivated in about 6,901ha with an annual production of 87,437 MT. 3“The area under banana cultivation is highest in Mokokchung district followed by Kohima and Wokha district; 1250ha, 1000ha and 847ha respectively but in terms of production, wokha district occupies the first place with a production of 11107.50MT followed by Mokokchung and Kohima district with a production of 7100MT and 1230MT respectively”. (Source: Horticulture Area Production Info. of India, Nagaland) In the selected area of study i.e., Tuli block under Mokokchung district, Nagaland most of the people were engaged in farming activities and their livelihood depends on it whereby, banana cultivation was a common practice in almost all of the household in the study area. The most common banana varieties cultivated in the area as said by the locals were chini champa, hati gol, jahaji and malbhog. Tuli is an area blessed with many natural resources obe of which is the river Milak. According to the locals who resided in and around the banks of the river Milak, cited that there was very less need for application of fertilizers as the river bought down enough manure and fertile soil. This made the land in the area suitable for cultivation of many vegetables and fruits helping the people in the area to sustain their livelihood through various farming activities. 2. OBJECTIVE: To identify the thematic areas for training needs of banana cultivators based on improved banana cultivation practices. 3. LITERATURE REVIEW: 4Bajpai et al. (2007) reveals that most of the farmers of the district Udham Singh Nagar wanted a package of practices on rice cultivation. 5Pierre-André et al (2010) revealed in their study that the totality of respondents had Available online on – WWW.IJIRMF.COM Page 246 INTERNATIONAL JOURNAL FOR INNOVATIVE RESEARCH IN MULTIDISCIPLINARY FIELD ISSN: 2455-0620 Volume - 7, Issue - 5, May – 2021 Monthly, Peer-Reviewed, Refereed, Indexed Journal with IC Value: 86.87 Impact Factor: 6.719 Received Date: 15/05/2021 Acceptance Date: 30/05/2021 Publication Date: 31/05/2021 expressed their needs for training about production of planting materials (5.34) and tapping techniques (4.62). The majority of respondents had expressed their training needs about improved agricultural techniques (3.00), budding process (2.90), accurate preparation of stimulant and its application (2.34) and identification of diseases and chemical application for their control (1.26). 6Alarima et al (2011) opined from their study that the training needs of the sawah farmers in Nigeria in order of priority were- Water management (95.50%), power tiller operation and management (93.20%) and sawah layout and design (88.60%) were the most important areas where farmers need training. 7Rahman et al (2018) found in their study that integrated disease management attained the top most priority followed by integrated pest management under training on crop protection. Management of problematic soils and fertilizer application were most needed training under soil health and fertility management while training with respect to production of off-season vegetables was the most important one under vegetable production. Training on tuber crops cultivation was also in high demand for areas of production and management technology, processing and value addition of tuber crops. 2. RESEARCH METHODOLOGY: The study was conducted in the state of Nagaland. With a total population of 1,980,602 making it one of the smallest states of India. Almost 75 % of the state’s population recites in rural areas and agriculture is one of the most vital economic activity in the state. Nagaland was purposively selected for the study. There are 12 districts in Nagaland and 8“Mokokchung was purposively selected for the study, as it is the second highest producer of banana in Nagaland. (Source: Horticulture Area Production Info, govt. of India, Nagaland). Out of the 9 RD blocks in Mokokchung district”, namely, Longchem, Changtongya, Mangkolemba, Ongpangkong (North), Ongpangkong (South), Kobulong, Chuchuyimlang, Tuli and Tsurangkong, it was found that Tuli has considerably high number of banana cultivators amongst all the other blocks and therefore Tuli block was selected purposively for the study considering 30 respondents from 4 selected villages making a total sample size of 120 respondents. Finally, multi-stage sampling design was applied since the sample districts and respondents were to be selected as desired in fulfilling the objectives taken under consideration in the present study. 3. RESULTS AND DISCUSSION: 5.1 TRAINING NEED OF THE RESPONDENTS 5.1.1 General assessment of the respondents on their Training needs in improved banana cultivation. The training Need assessment of the respondents on improved banana cultivation was done generally involving all variables taken into consideration in this study. Table 5.1.1 revealed that, majority of the respondents, (68.33 %) had ‘medium’ level training needs towards banana cultivation, followed by 19.17 per cent and 12.50 per cent of the respondents requiring ‘low’ and ‘high’ training needs respectively. Table 5.1.1 Overall distribution of respondents based on their training needs in general. Sl. Degree of training needs Frequency Percentage No. 1 Low (not needed) 23 19.17 2 Medium (needed) 82 68.33 3 High (most needed) 15 12.50 Total 120 100 µ = 25.27, S.D = 1.97 From the Training Needs assessment study in Table 5.1.1, it was found that majority of the respondents had ‘medium’ training needs. During discussion, it was observed that the respondents had large experience in banana cultivation which over the years might have helped them to acquire the skills and basic knowledge of banana cultivation eventually leading to ‘medium’ training needs in general. Therefore, the need for training was found to be generally ‘medium’ in the study area. This finding were in line with the findings of J.M. Reshma (2017)9. 5.1.2 Training needs Assessment based on improved banana cultivation practices The training need assessment based on improved banana cultivation practices was carried out by measuring the knowledge level of respondents on the improved method of banana cultivation practices as presented and discussed in table 5.1.2. Thus, based on an overall rank obtained, the training need was found to be highest in respect of pest and diseases management (I) followed by irrigation schedule(II), land preparation(III), nutrient management (IV), spacing (V), post harvest management technique (VI), harvesting (VII), seed and sowing (VIII) and intercultural operation (IX).

    For OHicial use only CENSUS OF INDIA 1971 SERIES 15 NAGALAND PART VIU-A ADMINISTRATION REPORT ENUMERATION DANIEL KENT of the Indian Frontier Administrative Service DIRECTOR OF CENSUS OPERATIONS NAGALAND (Motif on the cover) Kohima witnessed the disasters of modern battle during the Second World War. The .epitaph standing in the world-famous War Cemetery at Kohima town, " When you go home TeJ/ them of us and say For your tomorrow We gave our to-day" reminds the mankind about the few brave men who sacrificed their lives for the bettermen' of the future generations of the world. PREFACE The most distinguishing feature of the 1971 Census in Nagaland is that the people came forward with enthusiasm to co-operate without any reservation in their minds for enumeration in this gigantic Census Operation, unlike the 1961 Census as it was conducted under very peculiar circumstances in view of the distrubed condition in the State. The tradition of Census Operation is a kind of national stock taking, and are indispensable instrument of policy in development planning, and tne Administration Report herein attempts to present a factual account mainly with the organisational structure of Census Operation. The reports contained herein is intended to give a humble guide line to various plannings in the State, because no such planning can be achieved mainly on random imagination without basing on scientific data as done in the past. For this purpose the second volume known as Administration Report on Tabulation shall be published shortly, and as such it deals only with the first phase of the Census Operation relating to houselisting and enumeration.
