Abstract: The present study was undertaken to determine the extent of involvement in different extension activities by the Farmer Friends under Revitalized Extension System (RES). A sample size of 196 Farmer Friends were drawn from four selected blocks of Panagar (2303’ N and 79098’ E), Patan (22053’ N and 79042’ E), Sihora (23048’ N and 80012’ E) and Jabalpur (23016’ N and 79093’ E) of Jabalpur district (22049’ to 24008’ N latitude and from 79021’ to 80058’ E longitude). The findings showed that higher percentage (48.47%) of Farmer Friends had a high level of involvement in different extension activities under Revitalized Extension System (RES) followed by 42.86 per cent in medium and only a least 8.67 per cent of them had low involvement in different extension activities. The extent of involvement of Farmer Friends in different extension activities indicates that the highest rank was occupied by both the extension activities ‘‘inform about various government schemes for farmers benefits and arrange farmers’ meeting from time to time with a same weighted mean score i.e. 2.62 followed by ‘collection of soil sample with Global Positioning System (GPS) location’ with weighted mean score of 2.54 which is greater than average mean score (2.35).
