Abstract

The study was conducted to analyse the constraints faced by the RAWEP functionaries of ANGRAU and
suggestions of the RAWEP functionaries for the effective implementation of RAWEP. The most important constraints
faced by the RAWEP functionaries were: non- coincidence of RAWEP with crop season, difficulty in providing girl
students accommodation, traditional nature of external evaluation, low stipend amount to students, inadequate
budget allocation for training programmes and field visits, lack of seriousness, dedication and punctuality among
the students, last minute selection of host farmers and villages, allotment of more number of students to each
DAATTC and unequal involvement of the all faculty in RAWEP. Suggestions offered by RAWEP functionaries includes
timely payment of RAWEP stipend, coinciding RAWEP with crop season, adequate staffing arrangement at DAATTC/
KVKs, reducing work load of scientists looking after RAWEP at DAATTC/KVKs, advance selection of RAWEP village
and providing updated knowledge on crop protection.
