• B. A - IV, B - V, C - I, D - III, E - II
• C. A - II, B - III, C - IV, D - V, E - I
• D. A - V, B - III, C - IV, D - II, E - I

Hint:

Remember: "Method Demonstration = Learning by doing," and "Result Demonstration = Seeing is believing." These two pairings are fundamental in extension methodology.

Answer 1

The Correct Option is C

Step 1: Understanding the Concept:
Extension methods are classified either by their contact nature (individual, group, mass) or by their instructional function (demonstrations).

Step 2: Detailed Explanation:
Let us match the concepts and activities with their classifications:
- Learning by doing: The core philosophy behind Method demonstrations, where farmers are taught a new skill (e.g., seed treatment or operating a sprayer) by doing it themselves. (A - II)
- Seeing is believing: The core philosophy behind Result demonstrations, where farmers see the actual crop yield or performance results on a farm, convincing them to adopt the practice. (B - III)
- Exhibitions: An organized display of agricultural inputs and machinery that reaches a very large number of people simultaneously, classifying it as a Mass contact method. (C - IV)
- Telephone calls: A direct, one-on-one communication channel, classifying it as an Individual contact method. (D - V)
- Tours: Educational visits involving a small to medium group of selected farmers to research stations or progressive farms, classifying it as a Group contact method. (E - I)
Thus, the correct matching is A - II, B - III, C - IV, D - V, E - I.

Step 3: Final Answer:
The matching sequence corresponds to Option (C).
