Efficient transfer of innovations and their practical application to field situations is the key to economic development of India. Still there exists a wide gap between the technology available at the research level and its knowledge at farmer’s level. Keeping this in view, an attempt has been made to know the knowledge level of SRI technology. The study was conducted in Cuddalore District of Tamil Nadu. The study revealed that more than half the proportion (54.00 per cent) of respondents had medium level of knowledge followed by 31.00 per cent of the respondents who had high level of knowledge. Only 15.00 per cent of the respondents had low knowledge level. Out of eleven major recommended nursery practices of SRI technology, maximum knowledge level was found towards seed rate per acre and minimum knowledge was observed towards quantity of fungicide. The study revealed that out of twelve major recommended main field practices of SRI technology, maximum knowledge level was found towards seeding per hill and minimum knowledge level was observed towards size of drainage channel.
