Abstract: The study was conducted in Banaskantha district. The district was selected purposively as the area of groundnut is increasing day by day. Three talukas viz., Dantiwada, Deesa and Dhanera having higher area under groundnut cultivation were selected purposively. Five villages were selected randomly from the list of groundnut growing villages of each taluka. Ten groundnut growers were selected, randomly from each selected village. Thus, the final sample was of 150 groundnut growers. Ex-post facto research design was used for the study. Result revealed that the major constraints faced by the groundnut growers in adoption of recommended kharif groundnut production technology were; high cost of input (96.67%), high wages of labour (92.00%), high cost of seed (85.33%), lack of pure and good quality seed/certified seed (80.00%), non-availability of sufficient labour in time (72.00%) and lack of improved implements (70.00%).
