Change Agent Contact and the Adoption of Improved Agricultural Practices

Abstract

The Agricultural Extension service in Andhra Pradesh, as elsewhere recommends improved practices for adoption by farmers. Though the evidence shows that the adoption of improved practices gives the farmer higher income, yet many farmers are found to be relectant to accept these recommendations. The extension worker finds that there are some who readily adopt practices recommended by him while there are others who resist and refuse to heed to his advice.
