| Abstract: | An attempt was made to study the differential characteristics of participants and non-participants of F. F. L. P. in Trivandrum District, Kerala. Seventyfive participants of F. F. L. P. who were practising rice farmers and 65 non-participant practising rice farmers selected at random formed the respondents for this study. 'F' test was employed to test the significance of the difference of the mean scores of the various characteristics in the two samples. The study revealed that the participants of F. F, L. P. were having higher social participation, more knowledge about improved rice practices and higher use of mass media as compared to the non- participants. Iriter-peisona! locaVrte sources were more frequently used by the non-participants than the participants. Both the participant and non-participants of F. F, L. P. extensively used interpersonal cosmopolite sources and there was no significant difference between the two groups with regard to the use of this source. |
