Extension service is good on paper not in reality. My take is very simple on that but first of all we will have to understand the role of knowledge and knowledge disseminator in our society. We are flooded with the knowledge everyday but who it is percolating in our society and who are doing that. Somehow there is huge disconnect between knowledge and knowledge dessiminator. They are there by default and not by choice and that is reflecting in poor implementation of the extension services across the length and breadth of the country.
In Indian government there are many services(ATMA,KVK,AO) for the farmers, who are directly or in directly involve in extension, our government provide may subsidies equipments for the farmers.Our government is good enough in bringing technologies in the state but while implementing those only few people get benefit and after few month most of these become failure.
