Abstract Historians have portrayed the formative period of agricultural extension work in the United States as a search for the best method of convincing farmers to change their farming practices in order to improve agricultural efficiency, productivity, and profitability. However, one of the key leaders in extension’s formative period, Cornell University’s Liberty Hyde Bailey, articulated a different vision of extension’s central purpose and promise.

Abstract:
AbstractThis chapter focusses on the role of science, technology and innovation (STI) in transforming the food systems of Asia and the Pacific to achieve long-term environmentally sustainable food and nutritional security (FNS). A “whole of systems” approach is required to address the issues, and that work is urgently needed to define ‘healthy’ diets for different regions, societies and cultures. Emphasis should shift from the provision of calories to the supply of balanced patterns of all essential nutrients, and the ‘holistic’ properties of foods should be recognised. The chapter identifies countries and regions, within Asia, considered to be at particularly high risk for future food insecurity. Systems analysis should be applied across the agricultural and food sectors of these countries to identify the actual technical and other impediments to FNS. It is envisaged that the results from such an analysis would be used to formulate a ‘blueprint’ for agricultural and food STI in Asia. Overarching recommendations are the establishment of a trans-national funding mechanism for the entire region, focussing on targeted interdisciplinary STI, and the establishment of regional centres of excellence for research, education and extension, focussing on the identified key areas of opportunity. It was concluded that there is an urgent need for investment and action.

Abstract:
AbstractThe links between gender and migration are well understood, as the result of extensive research on the highly gendered nature of migration drivers, dynamics and impacts associated with broader processes of societal transformation. The role of gender norms in shaping migratory decisions on who stays, who moves and how resources are allocated are also well understood. Far less attention has been paid to intersectional approaches, and the comparative dynamics of gendered processes and outcomes in the context of South–South migration. This chapter aims to redress an existing bias towards destination countries by placing greater emphasis on countries of origin and transnational social fields. By focusing on migrants’ precariour status as workers, it also moves beyond the overwhelming focus on domestic work to highlight other overlooked sectors in which there are highly gendered patterns of migrant employment, such as manufacturing, agriculture and tourism. The chapter addresses this gap by adopting an intersectional perspective on cross-sectoral inequalities related to migration.

Abstract:
The success of sustainable agriculture depends not just on the motivations, skills, and knowledge of individual farmers, but on action taken by the agricultural extension agency in harmonising the activities of other agencies involved in agricultural development. This chapter looks into the coordinating roles of agricultural extension with other agencies involved in agricultural development towards sustainable food systems in Nigeria. The agricultural extension agency needs to coordinate other agencies in rural development to ensure unity of purpose and avoid duplication of efforts. Agricultural extension is considered the best institution to coordinate other agencies involved in agricultural development towards sustainable food system in Nigeria because of the edge agricultural extension has at grassroots level in light of community organizing and empowerment role. Government in all tiers should support the agricultural extension agency by ensuring that all development partners liaise with the agency before carrying out their work to enhance sustainable rural development.

The purpose of this chapter is to discuss how IK is accessed and used by agricultural extension workers in Zimbabwe. The study reviews the relevant literature and focuses largely on Indigenous Agricultural Knowledge (IAK). The study utilises both quantitative and qualitative methods; a questionnaire was distributed and extension workers drawn from eight provinces of Zimbabwe. Mashonaland Central Province produced the highest number of respondents because the population for the province included ward and village extension workers in addition to the district and provincial extension officers and supervisors targeted in each province. From the projected sixty (60), forty four (44) districts participated. The study observed that indigenous knowledge is relevant in modern day agriculture and should be given sufficient attention in extension work. The study recommends that IK be documented and integrated into research, education and training for posterity.

Abstract:
In a country like India, where approximately eighty percent of farmers are small and marginal, addressing diverse agricultural issues requires a mixed economic approach. The pluralistic extension system aims to foster the development of mixed economies, incorporating elements of both capitalism and socialism, fostering closer collaboration between the public and private sectors. Over time, the pluralistic extension system has demonstrated that the widespread adoption of improved agricultural technologies is most successful when government organizations, NGOs, and private entities work together to provide advisory services to farmers. This approach necessitates joint planning, implementation, and evaluation of programs involving all service providers, in active partnership with farmers. In this pluralistic extension model, the government plays a crucial role in setting national policy direction, coordinating efforts, and ensuring quality control to safeguard the interests of farming communities. Consequently, the new extension paradigm recognizes the importance of multi-agency collaboration, harnessing the strengths of both public and non-public actors (such as the private sector, NGOs, FIG/CIG/POs, PPP Models) in agricultural extension work to enhance the delivery system for all types of farmers

Abstract:
With the ever-increasing load of satiating the agricultural demands, the transition of the orthodox methods into smart ones is inevitable. The agriculture sector for long has served as a momentous source of livelihood for many globally. It is arguably a major topic for nations of the development spectrum, contributing towards their export earnings and aiding in their GDP assessment. Thus, it is quite conspicuous that nations would work towards its expansion. In congruence, the burgeoning population and its demands have posed a threat to the environment due to extensive exploitation of resources, which in turn is escalating towards the downfall of the quality and quantity of agricultural produces requiring a 70% increment in the produces by 2050 for sustainability. To combat such hurdles, developed techniques are being employed. Through a survey of existing literature, this chapter provides a comprehensive overview of various image processing means that could come in handy for ameliorating the present scenario and shows their implied extension in the smart farming world.

This research work investigates the effectiveness of the agricultural extension tool of mobile phone audio messages among farmers in areas of rural in Puducherry, during the years 2010-2013. The research work analysed farmers' benefits, gaps in mobile advisory services (MAS), perception of mobile messages, socio-demographic, and socio-economic data. As a result, farmers were able to acquire knowledge and skills relating to their livelihoods and make timely decisions to cope with emerging issues and trends in agriculture to an extent of diversifying their cropping patterns. These messages enhanced their knowledge in crop management, latest farming technologies, and agriculture-related government schemes and entitlements, and post-harvest techniques along with care and management of livestock.

In modern agriculture, farmers face certain problems in obtaining necessary information and improving agricultural production. This paper aimed to reveal the standpoints of farmers related to the role of agricultural extension services (AES) as a source of information and farmers’ opinion on the quality of work of extension officers. In order to examine this goal, two municipalities were selected, Alibunar and Kruševac. A total of 65 farmers were included in the research and a survey of their attitudes was conducted. The analysis of farmers’ attitudes indicates that some of them are still not

Abstract:
The threat of climate change and its negative consequences is currently a very serious and immediate problem. The most observable manifestation of climate change is undoubtedly global warming. The higher air temperature has already affected the length of the growing season in a large part of Europe. Flowering and ripening of cereals begin a few days earlier than was usual. These changes are expected to continue in many regions. The extension of the growing season and the frost-free period can generally lead to an increase in the productivity of agricultural production in Northern Europe. Highe

Water is the source of life and is consumed mostly for agricultural purposes. Limited water is always a question in the Mediterranean region due to drought and climate change. Irrigation water requirement changes according to the crop pattern which is totally related to farmer decisions. Alanya is a town where tropical fruit cultivation area has increased dramatically as well as irrigation water requirements. Especially, bananas and avocados have become the most popular plants after citrus trees. The evapotranspiration of tropical fruits is higher than many other plants. For this reason, water

Abstract In this work, we investigate the problem of finding the minimum coverage time of an agricultural field using a team of heterogeneous unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs). The aerial robotic system is assumed to be heterogeneous in terms of the equipped cameras’ field of view, flight speed, and battery capacity. The coverage problem is formulated as a vehicle routing problem (VRP) [1] with two significant extensions. First, the field is converted into a graph, including nodes and edges generated based on sweep direction and the minimum length of UAVs’ footprints. Second, the underlying opti

Communal forests occupy one million hectares in the Northern of Portugal and Galicia. Since centuries ago, “Baldios” and “Montes Veciñais en Man Común” (MVMC) played an essential function in the economy of their owner communities. This role was lost all through the last century due to the enormous afforestation and the decrease of agriculture. The restitution of democratic regimes returned the communal forests tenure to the communities.

Beekeeping contributes to rural development by supporting agricultural production through pollination and by providing honey, wax, and other products for home use and sale. It offers a good way for resource-poor farmers in the Hindu Kush Himalayas to obtain income, as it requires only a small start-up investment, can be carried out in a small space close to the home, and generally yields profits within a year of operation. A modern approach to bee management, using frame hives and focusing on high quality, will help farmers benefit most fully from beekeeping. This manual is designed to help pr

Abstract:
Background to the topic: Early tomato fruit development is executed via extensive cell divisions followed by cell expansion concomitantly with endoreduplication. The signals involved in activating the different modes of growth during fruit development are still inadequately understood. Addressing this developmental process, we identified SlFSM1 as a gene expressed specifically during the cell-division dependent stages of fruit development. SlFSM1 is the founder of a class of small plant specific proteins containing a divergent SANT/MYB domain (Barg et al 2005). Before initiating this project,
