| Abstract
|
:
|
Reviews the major trends to reform agricultural extension systems, discusses rural development, examining pathways out of poverty, and advocates a broader role for extension. The continuing and unique role to be played by the public sector in promoting rural development through extension and communication is highlighted. Important conclusions, drawn from the analysis of relevant issues, as well as action-oriented recommendations, are presented to the policy-makers of developing countries for encouraging institutional reforms.
