المستخلص Arab Republic of Egypt is one of the developing countries which carries out plans for the development in all productive sectors. Various studies have proved that the development in agricultural sectors depends among other thir~s upon agricultural extension. The A.R.E gives a great 1~portance for food production in general especially cereal crops, as meat of the third world countries of the major cereal crops prodL:.cedin Egypt. Researeh results stabilized that there is a gap at maize production between empiric field production and farmers field production of Maize production, under agricultural condi t Lcn .ili.c. Egypt,1t colild not increase an greB. tor this crop. It’s necessary to reise the production-p~r feddan, especially research results indicate to a chance for duplicate fedden’s production if agricultural technology were used and suitable extension methods. For the researcher beleif in the necessity of shortening the period between the avaliabi ti ty of ner.aericul t ur-al recommendation and Te~haoloeY methods for K£ize c~op and its adoption. Therefore it ~as necessary to study sociR1, economic and persone..lfactors ;::ffecting the ~.dop:i:,n of the recor:u:lended pruc t ices for ~:[’ize. Accordingly, the objectives of the study were stated A.S follo’i;s: 1- Determining the effect of adopting recommend Maize varietiei on the adoption of other reGommendations of Maize production. 2- Determining the effect of each of the following personal .factors at the rate of farmer adclption of recommended practices of Maize production. Age: Eductional status, profession. J- Determining the effect of each of the following social Factors at the rate of adopting the agricultural recommendations of Maize crop: Familly type, fa.mily size, degres of participation in local organizations, the conmopoliteness, expasure to general mass media, degree of fatalism, innoativcess, social status, opinion leea.dership, ’”ite EncQuragment of planting types of’ maize and cont act with change agen~s. . ~ - ) 4.Determinin~ the effect of e<”’lchof the follo’:ri~~ fe.ctors !.:”. t the r8.te of f8.r’”:”’a~dero’pstion of -~he ~<~ricu1tural recor. unendations of ;.:p:.ize crop: Local extension sctivities end fe~crs participation and extension incentives. 5.Determining the effect of each of the following 8cono”: mical factors at the rate of farmers adopting the agricultural’recor. uner:/ c i ons of Maize crop: Farmer’~-ecooooical status, Total size of holdings,type of holdings,Maize area, tiaize holding; aggricgates farm livestock holdings, degree· of using maize as a animals food, farm family employment, avai.lability of production equipm.ent, using of Agic. Mechani~~ation, farm mechanization holdings, average Production of Maize crop per feeden. net-income per fedden and degree of using the crop. 6.Studying the most i~portant difficulties facing production of Maize crop and the possibe way’s to overcome them from the farmer’s point of view. To achieve these objectives five theortical hypotheses were formulated: 1.T~.e adoption of the other s.p;ric.recO!7lT.entdiaons for plentin~ ~~ize crop is affected by the adopt Lng recornmended ’Je.rietiesof t:aize. 2.The degree rate of adoption of a~ric. recommendations of llaize crop is affected by each of the following personal factors:- Age, Eductional status and occupation. 3.The degree rate or· adoption of Agric. recommendations of Maize crop is affected by each at the following social factors:- Family type, family size, degree of: participation in local organizations,etc. 4. The e.doption rate of Agric. recomm~ndations of Maize crop is affected by each of the follow2ng Economical factors:- Yearly Total annveal income from Agricultural. and other activities, size of holding:::!,land tennne •• etc. 5.The adoption rate of agric. recornI::J.endation of Ue.ize crops as affected by each of the following extensional factors:- a.

This study was conducted at 10 villages in Kaliobia Governarate ,A controlled sample of 200 fa:rmers was selected from both adoppters and non adopters of the r-e ccrmena tion of f/!aizecrop (10 adopters and 10 non adopters) recommended varieties of Maize crop. Data were collected through persona.l inter vie’I’Tsbased on priviously prepared questionna.ire. The following results were obtained:- I.There is a positive significant relation-ship at level of 0.05 between the adoption of the recommended varieties and the adoption of other recot!l!i1endations of Maize crop. - 2.a.
