What is Agricultural Extension?
Extension is a pillar to community progress as a strategy of agricultural research and development. Agricultural research is an academic endeavor, unless it is informed by real problems on the ground and efforts are made to deliver solutions by appropriate forms of extension. Research institutions focus on technical aspects for generating technologies. Extension focuses on acceptance and adoption of those technologies by users.
