Abstract: Chickpea is one of the most important legume crops of Gujarat state. However, it was observed wide gap in between existing yield and potential yield in to the chickpea production. Looking to the importance of the problem, a study was conducted in Junagadh district of Gujarat State to seek the suggestions from the chickpea growers to enhance the adoption of recommended chickpea production technology. Four talukas; Maliya, Keshod, Mendarda and Junagadh of Junagadh district were purposively selected for the research. Total three villages were randomly selected from each selected taluka and 10 farmers were randomly selected from each village. Thus, total sample size was 120 farmers. In this investigation, major suggestions offered by the chickpea growers to enhance the adoption of recommended chickpea production technology were; supply of production inputs should be at subsidized rate (1.87 mean score), produces should be purchased by government at reasonable price (1.80 mean score), provide technical knowledge about insecticide, fungicide and weedicide (1.63 mean score), & water harvesting projects for increase the availability of irrigation water should be developed (1.43 mean score).
