Description |
Extension approaches had very crucial role in improving technology utilization, augmenting effectiveness of agricultural extension in technology dissemination, equitable access to stakeholders, refinement and participatory adaptation of technologies to suit resources and specific situations and thus paving strong and sustainable foundation for doubling of farm income. ICAR-CPCRI (Indian Council of Agricultural Research- Central Plantation Crops Research Institute) evolved the following extension approaches for solving the challenges posed in economically viable extension support and services, in collaboration with state extension agencies, local self governments and farmer organizations. Coconut farming provides livelihood, nutrition, beverages, edible fat, ecological services and contributes to the state economy. The challenges of extension support, services and technology delivery and dissemination are the fragmented landholdings among coconut community and the number of farmers to be covered under wider agricultural extension umbrella. The field issues and constraints are expected to be individual and social based as well as resource base of the farmers. Technologies and practices are applicable in general across the community, but warrants delivery and extension mechanics specific to technology, crop or field problem for effective adoption by farmers.
