dc.description.abstractA study on ‘Knowledge and Attitude of Beneficiary Farmers towards Agricultural Technology Information Centre, UAS, Bangalore’ was conducted during 2019. Ninety beneficiary farmers who visited ATIC during the last three years were selected purposively to elicit knowledge level and attitude of beneficiary farmers towards Agricultural Technology Information Centre (ATIC). Ex-post-facto research design was followed for the study was. The results revealed that nearly half (42.22 %) of the beneficiary farmers belonged to medium level of knowledge category while more than half (51.11 %) of the respondents had more favourable attitude towards ATIC. Further, a great majority of beneficiaries (91.11 %) possessed knowledge that ATIC provides consultancy services followed by 87.78 percent of them having correct knowledge with respect to areas of services provided by ATIC. Only few beneficiary farmers had correct knowledge with respect to agri portal service (16.67 %) and availability of feedback services (17.78 %). A great majority of the beneficiary farmers (95.60 %) opined that ATIC personnel attend the visitors properly but expressed that diagnostic services of ATIC were poor (72.2%). The results indicated that the variables such as scientific orientation and achievement motivation had significant association with knowledge and attitude of beneficiary farmers towards ATIC. More than 69.00 per cent of total variation in the knowledge was explained by the 16 selected independent variables put together. Beneficiary farmers faced constraints of lack of subsidy on inputs and non-acceptance of digital payment. Hence, ATIC should consider these constraints and efforts should be made to overcome these constraints.en_US
