Good Agricultural Practices (GAP) is a new idea for Punjab farmers. Most vegetable growers are unaware of it and have not implemented the practices. The study aimed to establish the factors that influence the awareness of GAP among vegetable growers in Punjab, India. Consequently, 100 vegetable growers were selected by purposive sampling and simple random sampling techniques. Multiple regression was used to analyze the effect of the variables on the awareness of GAP among the vegetable growers. Results showed that education, operational land, land leased, training, and income had a significant effect on the awareness of GAP. Based on the results, emphasis on training and capacity building of vegetable growers regarding GAP is suggested as a way of increasing awareness.

Good Agricultural Practices (GAP) towards ensuring vegetable safety and quality is a novel concept among Kenyan vegetable growers with its implementation low due to lack of awareness. To bridge this gap, this study sought to determine the socio-economic characteristics that affect GAP awareness among vegetable farmers in Nakuru, Kenya. Simple random sampling was used to select 100 vegetable growers. Logistic regression was used for analysis and the findings reveal that gender, level of education, leased land, income and training significantly influenced awareness. Emphasis on awareness creation among female vegetable growers and capacity building through training on GAP standards is suggested as a way forward in order to increase implementation.
