extension contact and mass media exposure were<br />

the major pillars for diffusing information to farming<br />

community there is every scope to improve these<br />

two components so as to utilize the extension<br />

knowledge and skills. Psychological variables <strong>of</strong><br />

were found to be medium and this indicates that these<br />

variables are the inherent igniters for the human beings.<br />

Hence, there is need to organize training programmes,<br />

group discussions, brain storming sessions, exposure<br />

visits etc. for sugarcane farmers and provide a platform<br />

to utilize these variables effectively in sugarcane<br />

cultivation.<br />
