Abstract:
An important factor in assuring the improvement of agricultural output, productivity, sustainability, agricultural technology, and environmental and ecological security is agricultural education. There are linkages between rural and agricultural sector development. The current study looks on the socioeconomic determinants of the farmers' community's prominence in Punjab, particularly in village Hasanpur and Kalewal. The present study was designed to know the socio-economic status of the farmers in Hasanpur and Kalewal village under Kharar tehsil, of SAS Nagar Mohali district of Punjab. The questionnaire based methodology was adopted for study purpose. The research is based on the initial source of data. The interviews of 120 farmers are recorded. In order to do this, we created a questionnaire in which we had to collect all the data related to the socioeconomic profile of the farmer, including their income level, caste system, level of education, family structure, cropping system, accessibility to tools and machinery, access to loans, information sources, etc. To make inferences that were significant, each item was thoroughly examined and explained. The appealing standing of farmers is a result of improved medical facilities, the availability of better seeds, and the provision of inexpensive fertilizers. The primary source of data is the catalyst of the study. The purpose of this study is to ascertain the peoples' living and working conditions. The goal of this study was to fully understand the socioeconomic situation. The key data sources used in the paper are gathered using both qualitative and quantitative techniques. Using various visual statistical methods, the state of this area is depicted. Many people have raised their standards of life, yet some still find themselves in the same situation. Many of them are under stress because access to healthcare, quality education, and jobs make it challenging for them to survive. According to interaction studies, farmers' socioeconomic conditions can be improved by teaching them technical skills, raising their educational attainment, and improving their social involvement. Therefore, exploring these areas' socioeconomic situation in terms of their population, occupational structure, education, employment, income, housing characteristics, and government programmes is crucial.
