Data were collected using questionnaire forms; a systematic, randomized sample of 296 farmers representing 5.00 % of the total farmers who hold agricultural lands in the selected villages. Data were presented and analyzed using the Replicates, the Percentage, the weighted average, the Average Degree, the Mathematic Mean, the Standard Deviation, Person's Simple Correlation Coefficient (Step-Wise Multiple Correlation and Regression Model).
The research concluded the following important results:The top three sources of information were: personal experience, relatives, friends, neighbors with weighted average of 139 and 132 degree, respectively.The requirements related to planning and implementing extension programs ranked first with a total average 17.7 degree and 84.3 %. 46.6 % of female respondents were of moderate knowledge level, 29.4 % were of low knowledge level, whereas 24 % of the female respondents were of high level of knowledge of the studied recommended technical practices.43.6 % of female respondents had a moderate implementation level, 33.4 % had low implementation level of the technical practices on producing and manufacturing some dairy products.The top production problem that faced rural women was disease infection with an average of 2.9 degree with 96.7 %, and the highest manufacturing problem was the low selling price of the dairy products with an average of 2.7 degree with 90.0 %.
