The findings showed that majority of respondents (69.17%) had moderate level of favourable attitude towards facilitation. Attitude of extension personnel towards facilitation had negative and significant correlation with ‘age’ and ‘service experience’. A positive and significant correlation was observed between ‘educational qualification’.
