| Abstract |
Determine the level of DRCRT among farmers in the study villages regarding non-traditional folders and compost. Define the time lag related to DRCRT among farmers in the s dy villages regarding non-traditional fodders and compost. Identify information sources to hear about the technology of Recycling Crop Remains among farmers in the study villages regarding non-traditional fodders and compost. Define the relationship between the degree of DRCRT among farmers in the study villages regarding non-traditional fodders and compost and some personal, social, economic and communicational variables. Define the contribution rate of some independent variables significantly related to DRCRT among farmers in the study villages regarding non-traditional fodders and compost in explaining the total variance . Identify the barriers of DRCRT among farmers in the study villages regarding non-traditional fodders and compost . The study was conducted in three districts of Qalubia governorate namely: Banha, Toukh and El-Kanater EI-Khairia. One village was selected from each district representing 'he largest area planted with Maize, Rice. The selected villages were Marsafa, Meet Kinana and Sandbeess. A systematic random sample was drawn representing 7% of total farmers random of each village amounting to 356 farmers. 1. The level of DRCRT among respondent farmers in the study villages regarding non-traditional fodders treated with Urea solution was moderate to relatively low. 2- The level of DRCRT among respondent farmers in the study villages regarding compost was moderate to relatively low. 3- Regarding the time lag related to DRCRT among respondent farmers in the study villages, 322 farmers heard about non
traditional fodders treated with Urea solution till the year of data collection rating to 90.44% of total respondents, while 202 of them decided to apply this technology rating to 56.74%. Thus the percentage of difference between hearing and the decision to apply rated to 37.26%.
4- Regarding the time lag related to DRCRT among respondent farmers in the study villages, 310 farmers heard about compost till the year of data collection rating to 87.07% of total respondents, while 215 of them decided to apply this technology rating to 60.39%. Thus the percentage of difference between hearing and the decision to apply rated to
30.64%. 5- The main barriers of DRCRT among respondent farmers regarding non-traditional fodders and compost were: unavailability of microbial vaccination, unavailability of extension bulletins about Recycling Crop Remains Technology to produce non-traditional fodders and compost, no extension meetings to raise fanners awareness about Recycling Crop Remains Technology to produce non-traditional fodders and compost, lack of Urea solution, no extension programs about Recycling Crop Remains Technology to produce non-traditional fodders and compost, farmers do not know where to get information about Recycling Crop Remains Technology to produce non-traditional fodders and compost, no TV or radio programs tackling Recycling Crop Remains Technology to produce non-traditional fodders and compost, and farmers needs to use crop remains as traditional fuel.
