The seventy two dairy and 72 non dairy farmers were selected randomly to constitute sample of 144. Structured interview schedule was used to collect the information through personal interview.

The findings of the study revealed that most of dairy farmers (37.50%) had medium knowledge level and majority (65.28%) of them belonged to medium level of adoption category. The socio-economic profile of dairy and non dairy farmers revealed that 54.17 per cent of dairy farmers and 51.39 per cent non-dairy farmers belong to old aged, whereas nearly one third of dairy and non dairy farmers educated up to high school level. Fifty per cent of dairy and 43.06 per cent of non dairy farmers had medium annual income and less than half (45.83%) of the dairy and non dairy farmers (40.28%) had big size of landholding. However, nearly fifty per cent (48.61%) of dairy and cent per cent of non dairy farmers had medium and low experience in dairying. Less than fifty percent (44.44%) of dairy and more than fifty percent (65.28%) of non dairy farmers had medium and low herd size.

Land holding, dairy experience, extension contact, cropping pattern and subsidiary occupation showed positive and significant relationship at 1% level of probability.
