摘要：

This study evaluated factors influencing banana farmer's adoption of sustainable agricultural practices (SAPs) in the uplands of Quang Tri province, Vietnam. Stratified sample technique was used to randomly select 300 respondents from two upland districts of the province with an aid of the structured questionnaire. The study found 65% of the SAPs were not adopted or adopted in a low rate; whereas, 35% of others had a high adoption rate. Moreover, the study ascertained that sustainable agricultural perception, economic status, extension courses, education and feasibility of practices were effective factors on banana farmers' SAPs.
