Description |
Establishment of knowledge intensive area wide community based approaches to pest management and the utilization of integrated bio management technologies lead to acceptable solution to problem of pesticide misuse. AWCA proved to be not a passive process but involved interactions among and between stakeholders improving technology demand and utilization. Feedback and responses from extension officials indicated positive impact of spread to other farming communities also.The focus on specific adopter categories and community extension approach in wider area could overcome the inefficiency of individual level technology adoption and wide variation of farmers’ socioeconomic resource base. There is a need for paradigm shift in extension approaches from individual to community level, with active community participation. Such specific extension approaches could increase the adoption of technologies, offer scope for refinement of technologies, evaluation of effectiveness and faster technology dissemination.
