Question

Match List-I with List-II :

Choose the correct answer from the options given below:

• (A) - (I), (B) - (II), (C) - (III), (D) - (IV)
• (A) - (IV), (B) - (I), (C) - (III), (D) - (II)
• (A) - (III), (B) - (II), (C) - (IV), (D) - (I)
• (A) - (III), (B) - (IV), (C) - (I), (D) - (II)

Hint:

Group Discussion: Collaborative talk; Method Demo: Shows “how”; Farm Visit: Personal; Result Demo: Proves “better.”

Answer 1

The Correct Option is D

The extension teaching methods are matched with their descriptions as follows:
- (A) Group Discussion (III): Involves a small group of individuals engaging in a structured exchange of ideas under a discussion leader to solve problems or plan actions, fostering collaborative learning.
- (B) Method Demonstration (IV): An extension agent or specialist demonstrates a new or improved practice (e.g., a farming technique) to a group, showing the “how-to” process to encourage adoption.
- (C) Farm and Home Visit (I): Personalized, face-to-face interaction where an extension agent visits a farmer’s home or farm to provide tailored advice or address specific issues.
- (D) Result Demonstration (II): Conducted on a farmer’s field under extension guidance, it showcases the superior outcomes of a new practice compared to existing ones, proving its effectiveness. The correct pairing is (A) - (III), (B) - (IV), (C) - (I), (D) - (II), making option (4) correct.

Answer 2

Elimination by method-family:
Extension methods split into individual-contact methods, group methods, and demonstration methods. Farm and Home Visit (C) is the only purely individual, one-to-one method, so it must map to (I). Between the two demonstrations, Method Demonstration shows the how-to steps of a practice, mapping (B) to (IV), while Result Demonstration showcases the outcome on a farmer's own field, mapping (D) to (II). That leaves Group Discussion (A) matched with (III). This reconstructs the pairing (A)-(III), (B)-(IV), (C)-(I), (D)-(II), matching option 4.
