Abstrak This research aims to examine the relationship between the suitability of agricultural extension materials and the skills of corn farmers in managing their farming activities in Petimbe Village, Palolo District, Sigi Regency. The study involved 33 corn farmers selected through a purposive random sampling technique. Data analysis was conducted using the Likert Scale and Spearman Rank Correlation to determine the extent to which the delivered extension materials were relevant to farmers’ skills. The findings indicate that the extension materials are considered relevant to corn farming practices, particularly in land preparation, seed selection, planting, crop maintenance, and harvesting. The correlation coefficient obtained was 0.352 with a positive direction, meaning that the higher the relevance of the extension materials, the better the farmers’ skills in managing corn farming in Petimbe Village. Keywords: Extension Materials, Farmers’ Skills, Corn Farming. |
