“…It is essential to provide proper nutrition education to celiac disease patients in order to make them aware about their nutritional needs and about different gluten free products available in market. Several other studies have also revealed that educational intervention programme lead to a significant gain in knowledge in the post test scores (Singh & Bisht, 2021;Ranjan et al, 2015;Rani, 2018).…”

The study was undertaken with the objective to improve the nutritional knowledge and technical skill of celiac disease patients. Since celiac is a disease which occurs due to gluten allergy and quite prevalent these days. Hence this study was planned to promote nutrition education to celiac patients and give them training on preparation of gluten free products during 2020-21. Thirty celiac disease patients were selected randomly using snowball method. Lectures cum demonstrations for preparation of gluten free quinoa based laddoo, upma, porridge and pulao were given. Leaflets containing the recipes for preparation and nutritional importance of quinoa products were distributed. Pre exposure scores (1.00 to 1.55) depicted that respondents had very less knowledge of celiac disease, its causes, gluten free foods, quinoa and its products, price of quinoa, nutritional importance and medicinal uses of quinoa seeds. A significant increase (P<0.01) was observed in knowledge scores (1.71 to 2.00) of respondents after imparting nutrition education. All the quinoa products i.e. laddoo, porridge, pulao and upma were liked by them and they felt that they can easily make these products.

“…To further consolidate the efforts, the KVKs of the state supplied 350 q of quality seeds of forthcoming summer crops and 1.23 lakh seedlings and saplings to the farmers. A study by Singh et al, (2021) reported that majority of rural girls were found to have moderate level of knowledge and were reported to have a neutral attitude towards health seeking and preventive behaviour. Nearly half of the respondents were reported to be following inappropriate practices and had few personal/familial/school related issues which needed immediate attention and help.…”

Study was conducted among 570 farmers spreading across 57 districts of Uttar Pradesh during the period of 25 March to 10 May 2020 by telephonic contact using the pre structured interview schedule to assess the effect of COVID-19 lockdown on the investment and profitability of major rabi crops of the state namely wheat, mustard, lentil, chickpea, and field pea. The effect was ascertained by comparing the lockdown status with the same period (March-May) of last year (2019). Findings showed that though the price of production inputs increased during the lockdown, albeit the variation in price jump was not very high. On the profitability front, wheat and lentil growers remained the most affected as compared to mustard, field pea, and chickpea growers. The production cost was affected more as compared to the market price of these commodities. The increased production cost was attributed to increased inputs cost due to the limited opening of input outlets despite the state Government’s instruction for relaxation in complete lockdown to agricultural inputs shops in the state of Uttar Pradesh. KVK experts also opined that the COVID lockdown restricted the movement of farm labourers and inputs availability which adversely affected the farm sector of the state.

“…Various studies have also suggested that education is necessary on nutritional front where the dietary intake of farm women does not meet the recommended dietary intake (Aparna et al, 2019;Thakar & Rajpura, 2021;Vij & Mann, 2022). Nutrition education is an essential consideration to optimize health status of farm women that can enhance not only their own dietary diversity but also that of their children (Kumari & Kumari, 2015;Rani, 2018;Singh et al, 2020;Singh & Bisht, 2021). Hence education and behaviour change communication need to be integrated in interventions so as to bring out significant improvements in nutritional status (Shankar et al, 2017).…”

Farm women, although they play a significant role in food and nutritional security of their households, are very much deprived of knowledge and information on food and nutrition. Only few studies have focused on nutrition of farm women and no studies have been found on farm women in aspirational districts in particular. Hence, in the present cross sectional study conducted in 2021, an educational module (folder) entitled “Diet and Nutrition of Farm Women: A Short Guide” was developed in Tamil, Malayalam and English. The module’s contents were subjected to relevancy test by 30 experts. The module’s effectiveness as perceived by the respondents on six characteristics were measured using a 19 item scale developed based on Guidelines for Pretesting and Evaluating Communication Materials given by Ministry of Health, Zambia. Responses were taken from 60 farm women to assess their perception on effectiveness of the module. Nearly 70 per cent of the farm women perceived that the educational module was useful. Majority perceived that the contents were interesting and they will follow the suggestions in the module. Hence, perceived effectiveness of the developed educational module was high and it can be used to impart behavioural change among farm women under similar circumstances.
