Abstract: Among the 138 million farm holdings at national level, around 85 per cent belongs to small and marginal farmers and their performance is indispensable for ensuring food security. That’s why the extension system had played its role in transfer of production-oriented technologies and yielded self-reliance in food production. The agricultural information plays a pivotal role from sowing to marketing phases of farming and there by accelerates agricultural productivity, farm profitability and in turn leads to better rural livelihoods. In this context, the ICT tools have tremendous potential to facilitate technology transfer to the individual in remote corners of the country. The present study was conducted among coconut growers to assess the impact of various extension methods in imparting crop cultivation knowledge.
