Type: article
Abstract: This study focused on assessing farmers' knowledge of improved cultivation practices in groundnut farming. An initial pool of 40 knowledge-related items was developed, drawing from various sources such as literature, input from field extension personnel, insights from relevant specialists, and the researchers' own expertise. After applying statistical procedures to ensure the reliability and validity of the knowledge test, the final set was refined to 21 items. This standardized knowledge test serves as a tool for evaluating the extent of farmers' understanding of advanced groundnut cultivation practices.
