It was found that nearly half (42.22%) of the beneficiary farmers belonged to medium level of knowledge category, while nearly one fourth (25.56 %) of them belonged to low and the remaining 32.22 per cent of them belonged to high level of knowledge category. Further a great majority of the beneficiary farmers (91.11 %) had knowledge that ATIC provides consultancy services, followed by 87.78 per cent of the beneficiary farmers who had correct knowledge with respect to areas of services provided by ATIC. More than three fourth of the beneficiary farmers (77.78%) had knowledge that ATIC provides recent varieties followed by 76.67 percent of beneficiary famers who had knowledge that ATIC provides ready made seed kits. only few of the beneficiary farmers had correct knowledge with respect to agri-portal service (16.67%) and availability of feedback services (17.78 %).
