5. CONCLUDING REMARKS
On analyzing mathematically, it may be predicted that adoption process increases up to the value n/2 means, when
50% of the farmers/villagers have adapted the innovation after which the adoption process slows down, it is also
very much clear that The most common pattern seen under relatively stable conditions is a "sigmoid" pattern where
this variable sequentially goes through phases that appear to be exponential, then linear, and finally asymptotic to
some upper limit in all the cases of innovations in farming. One source of any discrepancy might be the assumption
that a farmer only learns of an innovation from another farmer or villager. He/She could easily hear of it through
advertising and this could well play a significant part in the adoption process, particularly in its early stages. During
the study as discussed in the paper again we got the sigmoid pattern and data‟s are best fitted in the proposed model.
As it is quite clear from the above discussed graphs in support of technological innovations in villages as high
yielding varieties of major food crops (Table No. 1), Consumption of Chemical Fertilizer in Punjab (Table No. 2),
Consumption of Pesticides/Insecticides in Punjab (Table No. 3), Tractors registered in Punjab (Table No. 4) &
Number of Tube wells in Punjab (Table No. 5). All the different curves have similar shapes these curves resembles
like S and so it is called an S-shaped curve or a sigmoid pattern growth. As anyone can easily see, when the
innovations starts to grow, it does go through an exponential growth phase, but as it gets closer to the carrying
capacity, the growth slows down and it reaches almost a stable level. Which support the Sigmoid Pattern of the
proposed Mathematical model. To expedite the spread of technological innovations, role of Information Technology
and Media must be encouraged. The widespread availability and convergence of information and communication
technologies (ICTs) like computers, digital networks, telecommunication, television etc in recent years have led to
unprecedented capacity for dissemination of knowledge and information to the rural population around the world. It
can play a very important role to spread the technological innovations globally in more rapid form.
