The results indicate that education has a positive effect on the adoption of irrigation, biological (MV) and chemical fertilizer technology. Infrastructural facilities (road) has significant positive impact on MV adoption. Higher the road availability per hectare of cropped area, higher the adoption of MV. The study reveals that to increase the technology adoption level as well as its utilization to the fullest extent, we need to expand agricultural knowledge oriented education system in the rural areas of Bangladesh. 000202545 650__ $$aResearch and Development/Tech Change/Emerging Technologies 000202545 700__ $$aDev, Uttam Kumar 000202545 700__ $$aHossain, Mahabub 000202545 773__ $$q01$$o15$$tBangladesh Journal of Agricultural Economics$$j19$$k01-2$$d1996 000202545 8564_ $$97b3d557e-6006-4a37-a7a3-dba59c2c4051$$s8122914$$uhttps://ageconsearch.umn.edu/record/202545/files/Article_01%20Vol-XIX.pdf 000202545 887__ $$ahttp://purl.umn.edu/202545 000202545 909CO $$ooai:ageconsearch.umn.edu:202545$$pGLOBAL_SET 000202545 912__ $$nSubmitted by Sidhartha Sankar Biswas (bsertbau15@gmail.com) on 2015-04-27T05:05:49Z No. of bitstreams: 1 Article_01 Vol-XIX.pdf: 8122914 bytes, checksum: 5a79579b1de823b5989df738d670efca (MD5) 000202545 912__ $$nMade available in DSpace on 2015-04-27T05:05:49Z (GMT).
