The present study was aimed at designing an e-learning module on Good Agricultural Practices (GAP) for grapes. The study was conducted in Nashik and Sangli districts of Maharashtra. Total 70 farmers along with 19 scientists of Krishi Vigyan Kendras and ICAR-National Research Centre for Grapes, 30 line department staff and 20 exporters were selected as respondents. Based on the knowledge level, attitude and information need of the respondents on GAP for grapes an e-learning module was designed using content management software Course Lab 2.7 and validated. Validation of the module revealed overall means score of 4.09 indicating high preference of the farmers for the module. Content & design of the module (mean score 4.14) ranked first based on farmers’ opinion while ease of understanding (mean score 4.13), utility (mean score 4.07) and ability to satisfy felt needs (mean score 4.02) ranked second, third and fourth, respectively. The stakeholders opined that the module created interest on GAP (mean score 3.96), could be used by extension personnel to disseminate information on GAP (mean score 4.11) and for training on GAP (mean score 3.13).
