Abstract

This study aimed to measure electronic readiness (E-readiness) of extension personnel in Assiut governorate for utilizing ICTs in agricultural extension. The study used the three components determined by Bilbao-Osorio et al. (2014) in order to measure extension personnel' E-readiness in Assiut governorate. Data were collected by using questionnaire from 117 personnel representing 39.6% of the total number of extension personnel in Assiut governorate (295 Personnel). The results showed a low E-readiness of the respondents for utilizing ICTs in agricultural extension; which is supported by the low scores of the three components (infrastructure and digital content, the respondents' affordability to utilize ICTs in agricultural extension in Assiut governorate, and the respondents' skills in ICTs).
