Abstract
The study found that household respondents have positive attitudes towards the Golden Apple Snail-Vegetable/Herb (GASVH) aquaponics innovation. Results implied that urban households were open to constant exploration of how the innovation would give better livelihood and income opportunities. Furthermore, the adoption acceptance survey revealed that household respondents generally have high-level ratings at each stage of the adoption process. This finding indicates respondents' positive knowledge and attitude toward an enhanced innovation adoption of GASVH aquaponics. It is recommended that GASVH aquaponics innovation be promoted particularly to urban households, as this can help to address food security and safety issues in urban areas. Urban families generally had high knowledge and positive attitudes towards technology which it is promising innovation for adoption.
