Abstract
This study aimed mainly at identifying extension agents knowledge level regarding recycling of farm residuals in Dakahlia governorate. Data were collected by personal interviews using a questionnaire. The sample amounted to 100 respondents (about 34% of total respondents in Dakahlia Governorate). Percentages, frequencies, simple correlation, multiple regresation and (step-wise) model were utilized to analyze data statistically. The results of this study showed that: - The knowledge level of 24% of respondent extension agents was relatively high regarding using ammonia. - The knowledge level of 40% of respondent extension agents was relatively high regarding using uria liquid. - The knowledge level of 30% of respondent extension regents was relatively high regarding nourishing liquid. - There are five independent variables explained 64.4% of the variance of the straw treatment with ammonia which were: Training benefits degree, exposure to information sources degree, job satisfaction degree, period of extension work and attitude degrees towards farm residuals recyding. - There are three independent variables explained 63% of the variance of the straw treatment with uria liquid which were: Training benefits degree, attitude degrees towards farm residuals resycling and remoteness IMng place from work place. - There are four independent variables explained 47.8% of the variance of the straw treatment with nourishing liquid which were: job Satisfaction attitude degree, towards farm residuals resycling exposure to information sources degree and respondents age.
