The study was conducted in Pune and Satara districts of Maharashtra state. Data were collected by personal interview method from 150 cut flower growers growing gerbera, rose and carnation, (fifty each). Education, experience in cut flower production, participation in training programmes, extension participation, organizational participation, economic motivation, scientific orientation and innovative proneness of growers were found to have a positive and significant relationship with management efficiency of growers, irrespective of type of cut flower grown. The regression model predicted 71.50 per cent variation in management efficiency among rose growers followed by carnation (68.90%), gerbera (68.00%) and 60.80 per cent of overall growers. Path analysis showed that participation in training was the most important variable that affected the management efficiency of gerbera growers directly and indirectly. Participation in training had the maximum direct effect while extension participation exhibited maximum indirect effect on management efficiency of rose growers. Experience in cut flower production and economic motivation had the maximum direct and indirect effect on management efficiency of carnation growers.
