Entrepreneurial Behavior and Interactivity of Farmer Groups: A Sri Lankan Case Study
Original language description
Farming is increasingly been seen to be less attractive in commercial viability in the Sri Lankan farming community. Among the many factors influencing the entrepreneurial behavior of farmers, group interactions are of high importance. Understanding these interactions could be useful to foster entrepreneurial activities. Study was conducted among the farmers in Matale district, which is among the top 4 districts producing high amount of vegetables in Sri Lanka. Two successful farmer organizations, one farming throughout the year (in Yala and Maha seasons) and the other farming only in Yala season, were selected for the study. Overall objective of the study was to examine the entrepreneurial behavior of vegetable farmers. Stratified random sampling wasused to select a sample of 60 vegetable farmers, 30 each from the two farmer organizations. Descriptive and inferential analyses were conducted. Overall group interaction and entrepreneurial behavior of the sample was at a moderate level.
