An interview questionnaire was and designed to include various variables pertained to the objectives of the study. It was pre-tested and modified accordingly. Percentages, standard deviation, zero-order correlation, and Step-wise multiple regression (forward solution) techniques were the tools of data analysis.
Step-wise multiple regression analysis showed that, six independent variables out of the fifteen independent variables made a significant unique contribution to regression equation. The six independent variables taken together explain about 34.4% of the total variance of environmental conservation. These six variables are: Educational Status; ownership of agricultural equipments; Respondent’ age; cultural and geographical openness; Work status and Women’s empowerment.
