This is about the general concept of agricultural
extension. Agricultural extensions as a
profession connote that agricultural extension is a type of job that needs
special training or skills especially one that needs a high level of education.
PROFESSIONS RELATED TO AGRICULTURAL EXTENSION
Agricultural extension organizations try to change farmers’
behaviour through education and communication. Many other professions also try
to change peoples behaviour through one or other of these means.
Agricultural extension often has worked in isolation form these other professions, whereas much could be learned from their experience and research, even though they face somewhat different problems. It can also be in farmers best interest if extension organizations cooperate with these professions.
Therefore I will discuss briefly some of these professions.
