Abstract

This research aimed at: (1) Measuring readability of agricultural extension pamphlets among farmers using Colze test; (2) Examining the differences among the agricultural extension pamphlets according to their readability. The readability of four pamphlets (Maize, Sorghum, Grapes and Citrus) was measured by applying the cloze test. Data were collected using questionnaire forms from 120 farmers who were selected from four villages chosen from four districts in Assiut Governorate. Frequencies, percentages, arithmetic mean, and Kruskal-Wallis test were used for data presentation and analysis. The Colze test results indicated that the studies pamphlets generally fall within the frustration level for the respondents. The results also showed significant differences among the studied pamphlets according to their readability using cloze test. Finally, a set of recommendations were drawn for the officials of the agricultural extension pamphlets to help them improve their readability
