Each of the paper summaries was judged and scored by a minimum of three peer reviewers. More than sixty-five papers and fourteen posters were accepted for inclusion in this publication. This year, several Association members agreed to share the leadership roles in securing peer reviews for the paper and poster session abstracts, by assisting in securing referees and in the overall management of the review process. We wish to thank the following individuals for their excellent leadership throughout the review process. Steve Jones Matt Baker Jimmy Lindner Lay le Lawrence David Acker Roger Steele James Christiansen We also wish to express our appreciation to the many Agricultural and Extension Education scholars who contributed greatly to the review process through their thorough and insightful reviews. A special message of appreciation is expressed to those members who contributed to the scholarly activities of AIAEE by submitting proposals for papers or for posters. Your dedication to scholarship within the profession is commendable. Grateful appreciation is extended to John Crunkilton for his leadership of the poster session, and to all of the other members who have responded so faithfully throughout the year as special leadership, assistance with handling proceedings, and other valuable inputs in the scholarly activities of the Association were needed. We also wish to thank David Dolly for his untiring efforts in providing the leadership in arranging the Caribbean portion of the conference. We wish to thank all of those who are serving as session chairs and paper discussants at this year's conference. These critical roles have been readily accepted by those serving, and this dedication to scholarship provides even greater dimension and excellence for the activities of the association. Perhaps the greatest volume of thanks and appreciation should be directed to Mary Ann Lofgren, my secretary, who has unselfishly provided vast amounts of energy and outstanding communication and organizational talents toward the scholarly activities of the Association throughout the paper/poster call to the final completion of the proceedings. She deserves a truly grateful expression of gratitude from all members for her dedication and excellence in assisting in the many duties of AIAEE. John G.

The target population of this study consisted of all contact and non-contact fanners in District Hyderabad. A detailed questionnaire was developed and a survey method was employed to collect information through personal interviews. The most important finding was that contact farmerswere significantly different from non-contact farmers in respect to their farm size, farm income, educational level, and use of new practices. However, they were effective in disseminating new agricultural practices among farming communities.Non-contact farmers perceived contact farmers either good or fair according to various aspects of their work.Contact
