Whether Integrated Research On Extension possible or not?

SETTING OF HYPOTHESIS:-H0:-Integrated Research on Extension is possible. (Null Hypothesis)

Ha:-Integrated Research on Extension is not possible (AlternateHypothesis)

CRITICS:-

Extension is an stretching out education integrates all the components to

prove “Hyogoframe work” or “we” feeling rather than ‘I’ as a behavioral

subject. Mandate of extension to transfer the technology through

Research to prove Pluralistic Extension.

If we take the null hypothesis of our Research by reviewing and making

research in various cases,journals,Books it was evident from the History

that integrated research can be possible from the past decades via Ex-post

facto design methods.

Extension believes in “seeing is believing “ means

SeeingBelieving

Eye(Psychomotor Domain Faith/Trustwortuiren(Cognitive/Affect Domain

Behavioral Research

It means learning can be made concrete by making Research or doing Research/Mistakes in day to day life to get a fruitful result.

As per Newton’s 3rd law, it privileges that Every action has equal and opposite Reaction. So, in Research study only observation, Action and Reactions can be studied through integration.

ObservationAction

It means Extension education is like “Basudhaiba Kutumbakam” Means one family approach. In SAU/KVK system all line departments were convergence, covalence and correlated to make a common Research to achieve a common goal.

Extension has no boundary it can follow the principle of convegerence,Convulgence,Congregatation,Unity to prove cooperative collaborative facilitator approach.

So, in day to day life we can use the extension as best weapon for research.

Paradigm shift from Discovery to Innovation

Innovation To Invention

Extension To research

Integrated Research in extension education Now as a debate for whole

World?

By following the thumb rule of “United we stand…………… divided

we fall” means following a “we” approach rather than ‘I’ so, Integrated

extension system work via convergence, and convergence of all

disciplines of Agriculture as well as Rural Devt. Via “multidisciplinary”

Approach” . Now a days for Coordination both collaboration and

facilitation is mandatory via “Hugo: Frame work approach. I may called

as Pluralistic Extension may called as “ Pluralistic extension” by proving

“R-E-F-M” linkage and “S-R-E-P” Approach in ATMA. Hence be

justified in KVK system/SAV it can be conglomerate in Research-

Extension Academics hence be proved.

By proving various critics and analyzing the Hypothesis theoretically

we can agree that integrated Research on Extension must be possible to

prove the sociodynamics and family approach of extension for the social

welfare of the society. Hence be proved the paradigm shift of extension

from Research.

Research in extension education justify?

To conduct Research in extension education suggest strategicmeasure?

Research in extension education, is it possible?

Hypothesis:- H0:- Research in extension education is possible

Ha:-Research in extension education is not possible

JUSTIFICATION:-

As India is an Agrarian and democratic country so, hereextension education was started from Bihar(Sabour): It isalready called as “Family approach” means integratedapproach means paradigm shift from singular to plural (I towe) Means pluralistic extension. As extension education isstretching out education consisting of continuous processand meaning for changing of Knowledge,Skill,Attitude &Attribute so, We are acting as “changing Agent” Where as

Extension education act as main platform to create innovation,

discovery, Adoption by identifying the problem from field level. Then

suggestion will come.

CRITICAL ANALYSIS-1

If we critically analyze “ Extension program” we can find

the social Research, If there is a voice of innovation,

invention means Research must possible.

CRITICAL ANALYSIS-2

If we critically analyze “S-R-E-P” approach by complementing with

“Top-down” and “Bottom-UP” approach then we find the extension

Research by “ATMA” a beautiful model in extension Reforms.

If we analyze RRTTS,RRS in “SAU” system we may find

“Research” and “Technology Transfer” in this ground. So, both

Research and technology transfer is existing in extension education.

CRITICAL ANALYSIS:-4

If we critically Analyze “KVK” system we may find the various

Demonstration, Training, out reach work with blending of various

mandates of research. So, by OFT,FLD,FFS Research may possible in

terms of “Farming system Researcher”

CRITICAL ANALYSIS:-5

In Academia, When the Research scholars were conducting

their dissertation/thesis work by choosing a problem, they

will conduct research in terms of pilot study or Humanistic

study by direct interaction with farmers. So, this may be

called as “social science Research”

Here we may prove the Null Hypothesis by accepting the 1st

proposition that Research in extension education is possible.

Suitable strategic Measures for Conducting Research in Extension

Education?

For conducting Research in Extension Education the following suitable

strategies may be applied.

1. As extension education is a social and behavior science then while

conducting research we should become “Humane”, or

“Socialistic” by the process of socialization by following

assimilation and aculturization.

2. Be humble during conducting “PRA”/”RRA” methods by

eradicating bias or commitment.

3. Every research should be farmer led/Women-Led means e.g.

Farmer Led extension education .(Women Market led approach)

4.As this era is information Era so, ICT mediated and e-Agriculture

propelled strategies should be applied in field.

5. Various expert systems should be developed by extension education.

e.g. Extension expert system in rice

6. Accordingly knowledge management portals should be developed.

E.g. Rice knowledge management portal.

7. As extension people’s were public policy makers and reformer of

social entities so, every innovation, invention should reach to rural

people means easily accessible to all.

8.The family oriented extension education may yield a best result.

9. Privatization/commericialization of extension education may

possible in case of liberalization,Globalization,Provatization.

10.Though extension education is a rural study approach

“Urbanization of extension “yet possible.

11.Pluralistic extension may possible by hyogo frame work.

12.Inclusive extension education should be applied.

13. Cyber extension education should be applied.

14. Public led extension approach now growing.

e.g. OPSC,UPSC,ASRB

CONCLUDING REMARKS:-

So, extension education may be applied in various aspects

as it has no limit. If it is applied in Broad sense, then it is

called “Broad Based Extension”, hence be justified.
