Effect of Agricultural Advisory Services on Farmers’ Adoption of Pesticide Application Record Keeping
Abstract
The study will examine the effect of agricultural advisory services on farmers’ adoption of pesticide application record keeping. Proper record keeping is an important aspect of responsible pesticide management because it enables farmers to document the types of pesticides used, quantities applied, dates of application, target crops or pests, and other relevant application details. Maintaining accurate records can support better farm management, improve monitoring of pesticide use, and promote adherence to recommended agricultural practices. The study will focus on farmers’ knowledge of pesticide application record keeping, the types of information maintained in pesticide records, the frequency of record keeping, and the extent to which farmers adopt recommended record-keeping practices. It will also examine the agricultural advisory services available to farmers and how advisory information, demonstrations, farm visits, and technical guidance may influence farmers’ use of pesticide application records. A descriptive survey research design will be adopted for the study. The population will comprise farmers in the selected study area, from whom a representative sample will be selected using an appropriate sampling procedure. Data will be collected through a structured questionnaire designed to obtain information on farmers’ exposure to agricultural advisory services and their adoption of pesticide application record-keeping practices. The data will be analyzed using frequency counts, percentages, mean, standard deviation, and an appropriate inferential statistical technique. The study is expected to reveal the level of farmers’ exposure to agricultural advisory services and the extent of their adoption of pesticide application record keeping. It is also expected to identify the major types of pesticide application information recorded by farmers, as well as areas where inadequate knowledge or limited advisory support may affect proper record keeping. The findings will be useful to agricultural extension officers, agricultural development agencies, farmers’ organizations, and policymakers by providing information on the contribution of advisory services to improved pesticide management practices. The findings may also assist extension personnel in developing practical training programmes that emphasize the importance of maintaining accurate and accessible pesticide application records. The study will conclude that agricultural advisory services can provide farmers with relevant knowledge and guidance for improving pesticide application record keeping. It will recommend regular advisory visits, practical demonstrations, simplified record-keeping formats, and continuous technical guidance to encourage farmers to maintain accurate records of pesticide applications and strengthen responsible farm management practices.
