The survey instruments were based on Theory Planned Behaviour piloted selected EU Member State evaluating measures programming period 2014–2022. results indicate promising potential proposed capturing multifaceted outcomes usefulness feasibility further assessed through interviews with AKIS actors. They highlighted that at level may be hindered by inconsistent long-term data collection, insufficient response involvement farmers, deviations from agreed protocols dedicated resources. ensure uptake framework, culture managing authorities among stakeholders should systematically fostered level. This process can enhanced adopting more elaborated CAP monitoring guidelines providing targeted training evidence-driven policy-making.

This paper extends the literature on climate change by asking 'Who believes in change?', 'Whose expectations regarding future coincide with scientific projections?', and 'Do beliefs holding 'correct' influence taking concerted action?' We find that 88% of survey respondents representing New Zealand's primary sector believe but only 34% have temperatures projections, 40% drought projections. show men, less educated respondents, those long family histories farming, who put greater trust social media are more sceptical change. Among change, these same factors also associated lower likelihood their projections scenarios. Furthermore, women people likely to under-estimate over-estimate both temperature incidence relative Finally, we previous pro-environmental action intentions undertake positively belief having match does not additionally affect uptake action.
