Question

Given below are two statements, one is labelled as Assertion (A) and other one labelled as Reason (R).
Assertion (A) : Transfer of technology is important to fill the gap between technology generation and technology utilisation.
Reason (R) : Technology transfer is no longer so important as most farmers in developing countries are able to keep pace with changing technology.
In light of the above statements, choose the correct answer from the options given below.

• A. Both (A) and (R) are true and (R) is the correct explanation of (A).
• B. Both (A) and (R) are true but (R) is NOT the correct explanation of (A).
• C. (A) is true but (R) is false.
• D. (A) is false but (R) is true.

Hint:

Resource-poor farmers in developing countries rely heavily on government extension services to learn about and adopt new technologies, making technology transfer (ToT) as critical today as ever.
