Training needs of the farmers on farm resources management was the focus variable and twelve selected characteristics of the respondents constituted the explanatory variables. Appropriate scores and scales were used to measure the mentioned variables. Both descriptive and inferential analyses were used to analyze the collected data. The finding indicates that the majority (88 percent) of the respondents belonged to high training needs category while 12 percent of them belonged to medium training needs category and none of them belonged to low training needs category. Correlation analysis indicated that organizational participation, extension media contact, social mobility and knowledge on haor resources management had significant relationships with their training needs while others variables did not show any relationship. Level of education, annual family income, extension media contact, social mobility and knowledge on haor resources management were identified as influential factors as confirmed by the linear regression model. While this model also indicates that about 52% variations of the focus variable explained by the identified influential variables mentioned above.
