Abstract
E-readiness, as the inclination to benefit from information technology, among other digital facilitations, was examined among 169 extension officers selected through stratified random sampling. Data were collected by a structured, face-validated questionnaire. E-readiness of extension officers was operationalized as a composite score of awareness, availability, accessibility, competencies, and importance of information and communication technology (ICT) tools. Data obtained were analyzed using means and standard deviation. Multiple linear regression was used to isolate the determinants of e-readiness for both male and female extension officers. Significant determinants of e-readiness include living in the job area (t = 2.35, p <.05), means of mobility (2.72), educational level (1.68), number of farmers covered (1.93), working experience (1.80), and age (−2.53).
