AGRICOLA IND 87058469, The purpose of this study was to determine the image of 4-H as perceived by 4-H contest winners. A questionnaire asking about family life, friendships, amount of involvement by family members in 4-H, the perceived image of the community and peer groups about 4-H, and other related items was given to the contestants. The 6 top-ranked reasons expressed by respondents for joining 4-H listed parents being a leader first, followed by encouragement by friends, personal enrichment, horse projects, livestock shows, and because the whole family was involved. These data suggest a need for more 4-H evaluation research. The awareness of the need for more research in Utah has certainly been heightened by the rather sparse availability of quality evaluative research data. We realize, of course that this sample isn't representative of the average 4-H youth in Utah, or elsewhere, but the results nevertheless raise important questions and concerns that we as Extension workers must take into consideration as we plan and develop programs in the area of youth development and 4-H work.

Phase 2, INTERPAKS, The evolution of socio-economic thought concerning the diffusion of innovations started with a debate about the relative importance of social and economic factors in the adoption of hybrid corn and hybrid sorghum in the United States during the 1928-1941 period. Sociologists and economists agreed that an array of factors, not too well understood, and varying from one farm and farm area to another, stimulate adoption. The literature on the Green Revolution of the 1960's added new dimensions to the debate by considering not only adoption and production, but a host of other conditions such as markets and income distribution. The very nature of the adoption process tends to favor early adopters with favorable social and economic characteristics. Those less fortunate fall behind because they are unable to assume the added production costs and the risks associated with the potentially higher returns from the new technology. These new findings point to the necessity of formulating technological packages based on integrated socio-economic research where the entire decision environment of the farmer is considered.

Phase II, Raises several questions about prevailing conception of adopters and adoption behavior. Specifically, the author argues that research has failed to take into account variations in farming environments, natural physical parameters, and the social organization of resources as factors influencing peasant farmers' adoption behavior. More attention ought to be given to the location specific constraints, characteristics and requirements of specific technologies, and to the general issue of whether identical technologies are equivalent innovations in different agro-climatic environments. Drawing on data from several villages in Nepal, the author shows that rates of adoption are location specific, that is, influenced more by agro-climatic conditions and socioeconomic organization than by inter-village differences in propensity to innovate. Ecological suitably and varying levels of farm resources have a direct effect on technology utilization.

INTERPAKS, In: Report of an exploratory workshop on the role of anthropologists and other social scientists in interdisciplinary teams developing improved food production technology. Los Banos, Laguna, Philippines: International Rice Research Institute, 1982. p. 25-41., Describes how the interdisciplinary team formed by IRRI in 1978 to test and improve IRRI's integrated insect pest management (IPM) technology for farmers tilling small irrigated plots in Southeast Asia developed the technology from an initial Western orientation to its present form. Shows how IPM was tested in two projects in Central Luzon, each comprising five villages - one project "top down", the other "bottom up". Also describes how IPM was introduced in a control area with no attempt to organize farmers. Evaluates only the interdisciplinary research conducted in the "bottom up" villages where the project was the most successful.

INTERPAKS, Presents the prominent components of the training and visit extension system and describes the first experiences in African countries. The critical gleaned from the first experience are: the selection of the contact farmer and his capability to assist actively in conveying messages to other farmers; motivation of extension staff, who may have a higher workload than before; qualifications to train field staff supervisors and subject-matter specialists; transport facilities for staff; availability of new research results; and a firm government commitment to implement the system. The system appears to be adaptable to different farming conditions, provided the pace of introduction is not too fast, and evaluation takes place right from the beginning. Suggest the T & V system may not be suitable for agricultural systems at very high and very low development levels.
