The present study was an effort to analyze the constraints faced by farmers and suggestions for achieving livelihood security in Shahpura block of Jabalpur district in Madhya Pradesh. Shahpura block comprises 220 villages, out of which 8 villages were selected randomly by using simple random sampling method. Then 15 small farmers were selected randomly from each selected village. Thus, altogether 120 farmers were included for the study. In the study constraints faced by small farmers related to livelihood security was assessed i.e. economic constraints got the first rank with 2.38 average mean score (AMS), followed by technological constraints (Rank 2, AMS 2.12), social constraints (Rank 3, AMS 2.08), constraints in input supply (Rank 4, AMS 2.04), constraint in policy support (Rank 5, AMS 2.02), constraints in extension support (Rank 6, AMS 1.94), and ecological constraints (Rank 7, AMS 1.65), respectively.
