abstract: Agricultural extension in India is at the crossroads. A decade alter the end of the Training and Visit (T&V) System, the Department of Agriculture (DoA), the main extension agency, is struggling to find a fresh direction and approach. At the same lime the nature of Indian agriculture becomes ever more complex. New opportunities (and threats) for trade in international markets join older concerns of supporting the rural economy where agricultural production and employment support the livelihoods of many of the poorest in society. The public sector, including both agricultural research and extension organisations, has also seen the emergence of new imperatives such as cost recovery, decentralisation, pluralistic funding and privatisation.
