| dc.description.abstract | The study was conducted during 2014-15 in three districts of Northern Karnataka viz., Dharwad, Gadag and Haveri with sample size of 120 where samples were randomly selected with the objectives of Achievement Motivation and Job Performance of Assistant Agricultural Officers (AAOs) of KSDA and to identify the factors affecting Achievement Motivation and Job Performance. Further, an attempt was made to identify the problems faced by the Assistant Agricultural Officers in performing their job. Appropriate scales or scoring procedures developed by earlier researchers were used to quantify the variables for the study. The main findings of the study revealed that a majority (65%) of the Assistant Agricultural Officers were in medium category of Achievement Motivation and belonged to medium category (63%) of Job Performance. Further the results revealed that fifty four per cent were educated upto SSLC and 55 per cent were medium level experienced in present post, 55.84 per cent of AAOs had medium job stress and 54.17 per cent belonged to medium organisational commitment. However, 72.50 per cent have not received recognition. The independent variables such as education, experience in present position, training received, job involvement, job stress, organisational commitment and recognition had significant relation with job performance. The important problems encountered by AAOs while performing their job were lack of inputs at appropriate time, political interference. Hence, it is very necessary to increase both qualities of achievement motivation and job performance by making job more curious and challenging to the officers with appropriate rewards for their work. | en_US |
