Farmers’ Adoption of Improved Technological Knowledge on Soybean Production in Northern Shan State Area, Myanmar Mr. CHHEN CHIN http://taunggyistar.blogspot.com/ English for Agricultural Science
Presentation Out-line • Introduction • Methodology • Experimental design • Result • Conclusion • Reference http://www.buffalobow.com/sakda17FollowUpSoybeanMyanmar.html
Introduction • Soybean was grown in Myanmar for local consumption in former times. In the 1970s, there was low production and also low yield due to the growing of a local cultivar which was thermo-and photo-sensitive. http://www.buffalobow.com/sakda17FollowUpSoybeanMyanmar.html
Methodology • Six target areas out of 34 were selected with a population of 6,436 soybean farmers, and resulting in 377 samples. http://www.buffalobow.com/sakda17FollowUpSoybeanMyanmar.html
Experimental design Data collection procedure - Stratified random sampling - was calculated using the method of Yamane (1973). http://www.brecorder.com/markets/commodities/america/23426-us-soybeans-rise-second-day-on-production-jitters.html
Result http://www.buffalobow.com/sakda16DemonstrateSoybeanMyanmar.html
Table 1 Adoption of improved soybean production technologies of the sample farmers
CONCLUSION Farmer’s adoption of improved soybean production technologies was less than 50 percent except for improved varieties. http://www.buffalobow.com/sakda16DemonstrateSoybeanMyanmar.html
