- Notes:
- Evans, cited reference, Sources of information vary with the farmers' socioeconomic status and type of practice for which information is sought. When the farmers are divided into three groups-innovators, early adopters, and late adopters-according to immediacy of response to an innovation-the innovators are found to utilize institutionalized sources, while late adopters rely more upon noninstitutionalized sources. The position of early adopters is intermediate. This relationship was tested by interviewing 246 farm families of Baraset region in West Bengal, India about their sources of information for nine improved agricultural practices. (original)

- Evans, cited reference, The present paper briefly reviews the various methods used thus far for selecting key-communicators to show that none of these was found suitable in a similar study conducted in a multicaste village, with 94 farm families, near Delhi. The study recorded communication acts by each farmer in relation with three practices - ghana bajara, 2, 4-D and Pusa ruby tomato, at three different stages of adoption. The mean number of communication acts were taken to be the cutting scores. Scoring above the mean number in a particular innovation were regarded as key communicators, and those who did not perform a single act of key communication were designated non-communicators.
