The study has made to assess the constraints in pigeonpea production in Maharashtra State. For this purpose the surveys were conducted in Akola district, which was representative of the main agro-ecological zone of India. Three treatment villages were selected randomly i.e. one from Akola taluka and two from Murtizapur talukas. Thus, the sample sizes of 135 farmers were selected, of which, 90 farmers from Adopted village and 45 farmers from Control villages. In last five years soybean blackgram, greengram replacing pigeonpea (12.59 percent). It is hypothesized that some constraints in Pigeon pea production must be reducing the area of pigeonpea and it is observed that major constraints in pigeonpea are seed is not good quality, high seed price and lack of information about recommended variety, high incidence of pest and disease poor test which is analyzed by Garrett ranking method.
