Advanced Trends in Agricultural Extension
(Volume - 6)

Abstract

Agricultural extension is a form of rural development that relies on non-formal education. It is an old curriculum that works hand in hand with applied and academic agricultural scientific research. There is a wide debate about the necessity of separating the skills of the researcher from those of the agricultural extension worker. Is the application of scientific research and new knowledge to agricultural practices through farmer education. The field of 'extension' now encompasses a wider range of communication and learning activities organized for rural people by educators from different disciplines, including agriculture, agricultural marketing, health, and business studies. Extension practitioners can be found throughout the world, usually working for government agencies. They are represented by several professional organizations, networks and extension journals.
