The villager has customarily been very conservative in his attitude and approach. He is reluctant to change his traditional way of thinking and doing things. His attitude, in many respects, is: “home–made is best”. For instance, most cattle–farmers in the villages prefer to feed their cows and buffaloes with a home mix comprising of local oil cakes like mustard or cottonseed, pulses, jaggery, salt, etc. It takes numerous visits, and is hard convincing the rural cattle–farmer that compound feeds, scientifically formulated, improve the yields of milk, without any incremental costs. The age–old values and attitudes towards caste, creed, women, time and money take time to change. The villager has traditionally been a believer in the philosophy of ‘Karma’ or fate. He has found it more convenient to blame his economic destitution, poor living conditions, and straitened social status on ‘bhagya’, ‘Karma’ or ‘fate’. The security that the villagers find in the status quo, acts as a disincentive to change and experimen
