traditional nor modem resource access variables differ between groups. Although results

provide some support for hypothesis two, they do not corroborate hypothesis three.

 The results in this research show a difference between groups based on attitudes

toward traditional farming. The high TAP user group has a more positive attitude

towards traditional agriculture than the low TAP user group. This is consistent with

previous findings. Luzar and Diagne (1999), Lynne, Shonwiler and Rola (1998) and

Zubair and Garforth (2006) show that attitudes correlate with decision-making and

adoption behavior. Interview responses are consistent with Likert scale results. Some

members from both user groups viewed traditional agriculture as better practices than

non-traditional practices because they are "healthier". Some members from the high

TAP user group also believe that traditional agriculture is better than conventional

agriculture because TAP impacts the environmental positively, preserves the connection

with land/Earth/ Mother Earth and is good for culture and heritage. Some of the low TAP

user group members said that non-traditional agriculture is better than traditional

agriculture because it is easier to use, saves time, is a better method due to technology

advancement and can feed the population. The responses by TAP user groups make

sense in light of socioeconomic characteristics. Low TAP user group members are more

likely to be commercial farmers. The use of techniques which maximize efficiency is

probably important to them. Armitage and Christian (2003) discuss the lack of

consistency that previous research shows in determining the effectiveness of attitudes as

predictors of behavior. However, this research shows that attitudes do affect behavior.

 TAP user groups' subjective norms were also different. The high TAP user group

had more positive subjective norms than the low TAP user group towards using TAP.
