Abstract

The success of agricultural development requires the availability of reliable agriculture extension workers. The agriculture extension workers performance is influenced by personal factor and the situational factors of the extension workers. On the other hand, the development of information and communication technology (ICT) recently is very helpful in the completion of work in various fields, including in the agricultural sector. The study was conducted to describe the behaviour of seeking the information as a variable as mediated the influence of personal and situational factors on the performance of agriculture extension workers. The survey was conducted on 41 agriculture extension workers in Lebak Regency and was investigated using stratified random sampling. For objectivity, the performance of agriculture extension workers was assessed by two of their fostered farmers using simple random sampling. Data were analyzed using path analysis. The results showed the workload factor directly affected the performance of agriculture extension workers. The length of work, the involvement in training, the ability to use an information tool, and the information literacy as personal factors and working environment conditions as a situational factor of agriculture extension workers indirectly influenced the performance of agriculture extension workers through intervening variables of the behaviour of seeking information in agriculture. Meanwhile, the level of utilization of internet-based communication has approached the level of utilization of interpersonal communication channels that dominated the behaviour of seeking information of agriculture extension workers. This condition may emphasize the importance of the availability of ICT facilities and infrastructure to improve the performance of agriculture extension workers.
