The study aimed at measuring the knowledge, attitude, symbolic adoption, and [practice adoption levels of the participants and non-participants with regard to improved dairy practices. The attitude of the respondents was measured using an attitude scale constructed for this purpose. Age, education, annual income , family size, herd size , social participation , economic motivation, scientific orientation, risk preference and cosmo politeness were the independent variable studied in relation to the extent of adoption of the participants. The study revealed that the mean scores obtained by the participants for knowledge, attitude, symbolic adoption, and practice adoption were significantly higher than those obtained by non-participants. Of the eight improved dairy practices, the practices of early breeding of animals, full hand milking and mild antiseptic washing of udder after milking had four percent, 32 per cent and 80 percent non –adopters respectively. There were no non-adopters for the other practices. Un availability of service personnels, lack of service facilities un availability, quality feed at reasonable price, non – availability of vaccines, strenuous nature of practices and more time consumption for adoption of practices were the major reasons attributed to partial and non-adoption of various practices. Of the 10 independent variables, only economic motivation scientific orientation and risk preference of the participants were significantly and positively correlated to the extend of adoption of the participants where as family size was negatively and significantly correlated to the extent of adoption of improved dairy practices, economic motivation and scientific orientation of the participants had maximum direct and indirect effect on extend of practice adoption of improved dairy practices. | |
