Abstract
The research mainly aimed to identify the differences between adopted and non-adoptive farmers for the irrigation methods developed in The Province of Qalyubia, by achieving the following sub-objectives: identifying the differences between adopted and non-adoptive farmers for the irrigation methods developed in relation to each of the social variables studied, identifying the differences between the knowledge of adopted and unadopted farmers of the irrigation methods developed, and to achieve these objectives a questionnaire was designed. Her data was collected in person with a sample of 118 researchers from the farmers of the Tokh Center in Qalyubia governorate, and the data was collected in the field by interviewing the researchers during September and October 2020, and the averages and standard deviation of data presentation and testing (T) were used to test the validity of statistical assumptions.
The most important results were:
The results of the first objective and the first statistical imposition showed that there were moral differences at 0.01 and 0.05 for the following variables: degree of education, degree of formal social participation - degree of informal social participation - degree of participation in indicative activities - degree of housing - degree of ambition - degree of direction towards modern irrigation techniques - degree of empowerment of rural women - degree of satisfaction of family needs - degree of work, degree of educational and social returns, while It shows that there are no moral differences at the level of 0.01 or 0.05 for only two variables: age, degree of willingness to take risks and change, and therefore the statistical assumption is rejected in part with regard to the variables that have shown the above-mentioned moral differences, and its partial acceptance with regard to both age, degree of willingness to take risks and change, and accepted alternative theoretical assumption with regard to each of the zero assumptions that were rejected and mentioned above.
The results of the second objective and the second statistical imposition also showed the rejection of the totally statistical imposition, and the acceptance of the totally alternative assumption that "there are moral differences between the degree of knowledge of adopted and non-adopted farmers of modern irrigation methods with regard to both the degree of knowledge of the irrigation system and the degree of knowledge of the drip irrigation system". |
