Question

Given below are two statements:
Statement (I): Adoption score is usually lower for owner cultivator than for tenant cultivator.
Statement (II): Communicability is the degree to which results of innovation may not be diffused to others. Choose the most appropriate answer from the options given below:

• A. Both Statement (I) and Statement (II) are incorrect.
• B. Statement (I) is correct but Statement (II) is incorrect.
• C. Statement (I) is incorrect but Statement (II) is correct.
• D. Both Statement (I) and Statement (II) are correct.

Hint:

Owner cultivators: Often lower adoption due to risk aversion; Communicability: Ease of spreading innovation results.

Answer 1

The Correct Option is B

Step 1: Communicability, or observability, means results ARE easily seen and shared, so Statement II's wording is false.
Step 2: Tenant cultivators generally show quicker, higher adoption than owner-cultivators, so Statement I is true.
Step 3: True plus false matches option 2.
Correct option: Statement I is correct but Statement II is incorrect.
