dc.description.abstractThe present study was conducted in the year 2017-2018 in one head reach taluk Pandavapura and one tail end taluk Maddur of Mandya district. A sample of 50 farmers each from head reachand 50 farmers from tail end were selected randomly. Thus, the data was collected from 100 Paddy growers using pre-tested interview schedule. The findings revealed that majority of the Paddy growers in head reach area had medium to low Knowledgelevel and belonged to low to medium Adoption category.Whereas tail end farmers had medium to high Knowledge level and belonged to medium to high Adoption category on Climate Resilient Technologies in Paddy.The Profile characteristics such as education, risk orientation, cosmopoliteness, scientific orientation, mass media exposure, extension participation, innovative proneness, extension contact and economic motivation were significantly related to Knowledge level of Paddy growers. Education, risk orientation, cosmopoliteness, scientific orientation, mass media exposure, extension participation, innovative proneness, extension contact and economic motivation were significantly related to Adoption behavior of Paddy growers. Lack of sufficient Knowledge and guidance on Climate Resilient Technologies, limited extension activities on Climate Resilient Technologies and non-availability of labour to adopt Climate Resilient Technologies were the major constraints expressed by the head reach farmers.Whereas major constraints expressed by the tail end farmers were untimely release and improper scheduling of water in the canals, uneven and untimely rainfall and non availability of labour to adopt Climate Resilient Technologies.en_US
