of ANP practices by rural households,. (ii) the relationships of these selected factors in the adopti01L of ANP
practices,. (iii) which of the factors would make significant contributions to the non-adopti01L of ANP practices
by the households, and (iv) some of the reasons for the non-adoption of ANPpractices.

ANP practices. These factors were: educational attainment,. family size,. age,. attitude towards ANP ideas and practices,. and club membership.
