    OYSTER MUSHROOM CULTIVATION: A TRIAD OF THREE ACTORS IN EXTENSION

    This extension project is an offshoot of the ingenious efforts of the Kalinga-Apayao State College and theBachelor of Agricultural Technology which simply operates on the premise TRAIN, SUSTAIN ANDCAMPAIGN.. Students, after receiving such training on oyster mushroom, were then encouraged to establishcontact with interested rural folks who, in turn, also received the same training that they had inside KASC. Thistime around, however, the original trainees became the trainors but still with supervision from the project leaders,the SUSTAIN segment of the project ,done via monitoring and reinforcement .

    Three areas were identified and subsequently received an in-situ training-cum-live demonstration fromDecember 2010 to May 2011, from which emanatsl a rapid replication in other areas. This is the CAMPAIGNportion of the project It is then safe to conclude that the technical know-how gained within KASC and put intoactual practice gave way to a fired-up interest on mushroom production backed up by monetary figures thatserve as proof of the profitability of the venture. In the realm of extension work, diffusion and its subsequentadoption is made faster when there are observable benefits that can be directly derived from any endeavor. As canbe exemplified by the experience of the KASC interns, they not only solved their immediate need for an internship

    requirement and an extra source of income they also became instruments in propagating a technical know-howthat has been readily embraced and replicated by the larger community. This is diffusion with response. This isextension with results.
