A study was conducted during 1993 in Navamota Watershed in Khedbrahma taluka of Sabarkantha district of Gujarat to find out the communication behaviour of tribal farmers towards soil and water conservation practices. In the Watershed 86 per cent farmers are tribal with small and fragmented land holdings and poor economic condition. There is mounting pressure on land due to increased biotic pressure. All the farmers practice agriculture as primary occupation. There is little or negligible fanning on contours. Only 36 per cent farmers are literate, out of which only 10 per cent are of more than primary school standard. It is also observed that "Farm and Home Visit" method of communication is the most effective. The communication behaviour of farmers is significantly correlated with educational status, frequency use, credibility of communication and extension methods and adoption behaviour of farmers.
