The purpose of the study was to determine and describe the extent of adoption of litchi
cultivation by the farmers and to explore the relationships between each of the selected
characteristics of the farmers and their adoption of litchi cultivation. Auliapur union and
Chehelgazi union under Sadar upazila of Dinajpur district was the locale of the study.
Data were collected from 103 randomly selected farmers by using interview schedule
during 15 May to 7
July 2017. The finding revealed that about three-fourths (70.9%) of
the farmers had medium adoption, 25.2 percent had low and 3.9 percent had high
adoption of litchi cultivation. Spearman Rank Correlation co-efficient (r) was computed
to explore the relationships between each of the selected characteristics of the farmers
and their adoption of litchi cultivation. The correlation analysis indicated that, age,
education, cosmopoliteness, knowledge on litchi cultivation and attitude towards litchi
cultivation had significant positive relationship with the adoption of litchi cultivation.
Family size, farm size, annual family income, extension media contact and
innovativeness had no significant relationships with the adoption of litchi cultivation. |
