INTERPAKS, Examines the conditions under which cultivators in 84 agrarian villages within the Indian state of Andhra Pradesh adopted green revolution technology. Social status or resources and awareness are viewed as necessary but not sufficient conditions for the trial of innovation. A multiplicative model was specified to examine their effects. At higher levels of education, awareness was translated into trial at a high rate. In villages where awareness and resources were relatively highly concentrated, the rate of translation of awareness into trial was higher.
