Isabgol (Plantago ovata Forsk) is one of the important medicinal and commercial crops in India. The seeds of Isabgol are mainly valued for mucilaginous rosy white husk. The mucilage comprises of reserve Carbohydrate mainly pentose. It has a high-water absorbing capacity and therefore, used as safe anti-diarrhoeal drug. In recent years, interest of this crop has increased in the western countries because of the blood cholesterol lowering property of its husk. Other than medicinal uses, it is used in dying calico printing and ice-cream industries as a stabilizer. Being natural medicine with no side effects, it is demand in USA and other west countries as a house-hold medicine. The present study was conducted in purposely selected Jhalawar district of Rajasthan. There is total eight tehsils in Jhalawar district of Rajasthan, out of which, two tehsils namely Pachpahar and Pirawa were selected on the basis of maximum area under cultivation of Isabgol. Two panchayat samities from district were identified based on area production of Isabgol and eight Isabgol growing villages were selected randomly from each panchayat samities. Eight Isabgol growing villages were selected randomly villages namely karanpura, khod, ghatod, alawa, sunel, kaliya kheri, kalotiya & Rajpura. From the list so prepared, 15 respondents were selected randomly from each identified village. Thus, in all 120 farmers were included in the sample of the study. The study clearly showed that majority of respondents i.e., 57.50 per cent fell in medium level knowledge group whereas 25.00 per cent Isabgol growers were observed in the low-level knowledge group and remaining 17.50 per cent respondents possessed high level of knowledge about recommended production technology of Isabgol.
