Different initiatives of the state government have been discussed in connection with on Farm Demonstration (OFD) and the steps involved in organizing on Farm Demonstration.

To overcome these constraints the suggestions given by farm women beneficiaries’ viz. Engaging female facilitator to attract more farm women beneficiaries and awareness can be created through SHGs on OFD. It can be considered to strengthen the implementation of OFD by the development departments.
