2. What Extension Does?
- To bring desirable changes in behavior
The changeable behavioral components are
- Change in knowledge
- Change in skill
- Change in attitude
- Change in understanding
- Change in goal
- Change in actions
- Change in confidence
3. Principles of Agricultural
Extension
“Principles is said to be statement of
policy to guide decision and action in a
consistent manner”
Further “it is a universal truth and
found to be true under varying
conditions & circumstances”
4. The widely applied and tested Principles
of Agricultural Extension are-
- It becomes effective when it values the
knowledge and resource of local people
- It becomes effective if there is a firm
relationship between research and
extension
- It becomes effective when it follows the
whole family approach.
5. Cont’d
- It becomes effective when every extn
personnel has a plan of work
- It becomes effective when local leaders
are trained and utilized
- It becomes effective when available local
resources are fully utilized
- It becomes effective when each new or
changed practice is both technically
sound and financially profitable
6. Cont’d
- It becomes effective when extn contact
with farmers is fitted into times when
they are not otherwise busy
- It becomes effective when the results of
each practice are demonstrated just
before the time of use
- It becomes effective when client system
actively participate in extn activities
- It becomes effective when it fulfills the
need and interest of people
7. Cont’d
- It becomes effective when it works with
old institutions rather than creating new
institutions
- It becomes effective when extn
programme is monitored and evaluated
at regular interval
- It becomes effective when a wide variety
of teaching methods are used
- It becomes effective when local culture
is duly recognized and respected
8. Technology
- Technology is the subject of
agricultural extension that is taught to
the farmers.
- In fact, it becomes the central theme of
extension teaching.
- Technology should be problem-solving
oriented.
- More the adoption of technology more
the development of agriculture.
9. What is Technology/Innovation?
An innovation is an idea, practice, or object
that is perceived as new by an individual or
other unit of adoption (Rogers, 1995).
An innovation may not be new to all people at
the same time. When an individual already
aware of any or object that is not an
innovation for him, but an individual who
was quite unaware of the same idea or object
that may be innovation for him.
11. 6. Relative advantage/Profitability/Economic
viability is the degree to which an innovation
is perceived as being better than the idea it
superceedes in terms of economic profitability,
social prestige, physical convenience, and
psychological satisfaction. It is usually
expressed in terms of economic gain.
7. Compatibility with i) existing norms, values
and culture; ii) existing level of farm
management; iii) the stage of farm
development; iv) the resource availability
Cont’d
12. 8. Complexity is the degree to which an innovation
is perceived as relatively difficult to understand
and use. The more complex the innovation, the
slower is its rate of adoption.
9. Trialability is the degree to which an innovation
may be experimented on a limited basis.
10. Observability is the degree to which the results
of an innovation are visible to others. The easier
the results are to observe, describe, and
communicate to others, the faster the rate of
adoption.
Cont’d
13. Diffusion is the process by which an innovation
is communicated through certain channels over
time among the members of social system
(Rogers, 1995).
The process of diffusion may be characterized
as the (1) acceptance, (2) over time, (3) of some
specific item or practice, (4) by individual,
groups or other adopting units, linked, (5) to
specific channels of communication, (6) to a
social structure, and (7) to a given system of
values, or culture (Katz et al., 1963).
Concept of Diffusion/Dissemination
15. The innovation-decision process is
the process through which an
individual (or other decision-making
unit) passes from first knowledge of
an innovation, to forming an attitude
toward the innovation, to decision to
adopt or reject, to implementation of
the new idea, and to confirmation of
this decision (Rogers, 1993, 1995).

Personal
Characteristics
Salient values and social
relationships
Communication
behavior
1.Inovators Highest social
status largest
farms size,
wealthy, Often
young, well
education often
experience in
non-farming
environment
``Venturesome’’, willing
to accept risks, some
optional leadership,
cosmopolite
Closest contact with
scientific
information sources,
interaction with
other innovators,
relatively greatest
use of impersonal
sources of
information.
2. Early
Adopters
High social status
often large farm
size with
specialized
operations.
``Respectable’’,
regarded by many
others in the community
as a model and
influential, greatest
opinion leadership
Greatest contact
with local change
agents, competent
users of mass media.
Characteristics of Farmers in Five Categories of Adoption
18. Adopter

Personal
Characteristics
Salient values and social
relationships
Communication behavior
3. Early
Majority
Above average social
status average sized
farms.
``Deliberate’’, willing to
consider new ideas only
after peers have
adopted, some opinion
leadership.
Considerable contact with
change agents and early
adopters, medium use of
mass media
4. Late
Majority
Below average social
status, small farm
sizes little
specialization,
relatively low
income.
``Skeptical’’,
overwhelming pressure
from peers are needed
before adoption
leadership.
Interaction with peers who
are mainly early or late
majority, little use of mass
media.
5. Laggards Smallest farm size;
lowest social status,
lowest income, often
oldest.
``Traditional’’, oriented
towards the past, avoids
risks, little if any option
leadership almost
isolated socially.
Neighbors, friends, and
relatives with similar values
are the min sources of
information, suspicious of
the change agents.
Cont’d
19. 1. Awareness stage (Knowledge)- the individual
learns the existence of the new idea and gains
some understanding of how it functions.
2. Interest stage (Persuation)- the individual
develops interest in the innovation and forms
a favourable or unfavourable attitude toward
the innovation.
Stages of Innovation decision/adoption process
20. 3. Evaluation stage (Decision)- the individual
makes mental application of the new idea to
situation and decides/engages activities that
lead to choice to adopt or reject the
innovation
4. Trial stage (Implementation)- the individual
actually applies and tries the innovation,
usually on a small scale to determine the
utility in his own situation
5. Adoption stage (Confirmation)- the
individual accepts and uses the innovation
continuously on a full/large scale.
Cont’d
21. 1. Awareness stage (Knowledge)- Television,
Radio, Newspaper, Poster, Exhibition, Friends,
Neighbours, Extension agents, Input dealers,

2. Interest stage (Persuation)-Group discussion
meeting, farm and home visits, relatives,
neighbours, input dealers, sales man, leaflets,
