Study was initiated during 2004 with the objective to find out effective extension
methods for dissemination of Soil and Water Conservation (SWC) technologies
for watershed development. Frequency use and effectiveness indices along with
structured schedules were developed to assess and evaluate different extension
methods. The study revealed that majority of farmers were using radio and
television more frequently for information on different agricultural and SWC
technologies. The less frequently used extension methods by the farmers were
bulletin and documentary film show, exhibition, study tour, result demonstration
and method demonstration. It was also found that the most effective extension
methods as perceived by farmers for dissemination of SWC technologies were
farm and home visit in individual contact, discussion meeting and result
demonstration in group contact and film show in mass contact. Whereas,
according to officers of watershed development team and extension scientists the
highly effective extension methods were farm and home visit in individual contact
methods, result demonstration, study tour, lecture and discussion meeting in group
contact methods and they considered none of extension method highly effective in
mass contact methods. The study concludes that most effective extension methods
as perceived by both, the farmers and officers were, farm and home visit in
individual contact, result demonstration in group contact and bulletin as well as
documentary film show in mass contact methods, for effective dissemination of
SWCtechnologies for watershed management.
