The structural adjustments of the 1980s and 1990s led to drastic fiscal cuts in financing of public extension systems causing their near collapse in many developing countries. Several new players tried to enter and fill the vacuum, including the private sector. Yet it is not clear how much and how well the private sector is able to fill the gap left by the dysfunctional public systems. This seminar is based on a recent book titled Knowledge Driven Development: Global Lessons from Private Extension (2015, Elsevier), a collection of case studies evaluating 10 private extension models in seven developing countries. The book assesses the functioning of private sector extension systems in various contextual settings. Common knowledge is that most private sector extension models are implemented for, and seem to work well for farmers selling high value commodities. But for staple commodity growers (such as cereal growers), with a small market surplus and little scope for contract farming, these systems may not be sustainable due to cost factors. Some of the case studies challenges this conventional wisdom. Lessons drawn from the cases could be important in giving direction to future development, research and policy on private extension systems. It is observed that private companies have created shared value for farmers across all cases. Integrated services provided as part of private extension programs were a major contributing factor for their success. Private extension programs also help in the effective use of technology for increasing farmer productivity. Additionally, they provide assured market access and price to contracted farmers, thereby reducing the uncertainty of demand to a great extent. Extension programs implemented by private companies lead to inclusive innovation by engaging farmers in development of technical and market solutions. They also reduce barriers to accessing quality inputs. Further, they tend to induce collective action amongst farmer groups, increasing solidarity. Private extension is demand driven, directly addresses information needs of contract farmers, and under certain conditions can fill the gap left by public extension systems in developing countries.
This presentation about legal measures of insect pest management in Nepal. This presentation try to elaborate the mandate of Nepal Government for controlling insect pest .
Plant quarantine and phytosanitary certificationtusharamodugu
The word quarantine derives from the Italian word “quaranti giorni”, meaning ‘about fourty days’. After the Black Death arrived in Europe in 1347, observation and experience showed that the incubation time for the disease, from infection to the appearance of symptoms, was a little less than 40 days.
Plant quarantine is defined as the legal enforcement of the measures aimed to prevent pests from spreading or to prevent them from multiplying further in case, they have already gained entry and have established in new restricted areas.
The importance of imposing restrictions on the movement of pest-infested plants or plant materials from one country to another was realized by Ireland famine 1845, the late blight pathogen (Phytophthora infestans) introduced into Ireland from Central
America resulted in almost total failure of the potato crop, the grapevine phylloxera was introduced into France from America around 1860, and the San Jose scale spread into the US in the latter part of the eighteenth century and caused severe damage. The first international plant protection convention (IPPC), the Phylloxera convention was signed at Berne on 3 November 1881 by five countries. This convention remained in force till 1951, when International Plant Protection Convention under FAO was established at Rome. This agreement was constituted with the purpose of securing common and effective action to prevent the introduction and spread of pests and diseases of plants and plant products.
The first Quarantine Act in the US came into force on 1905, while India passed an act in 1914 entitled “Destructive Insect and Pests Act of 1914”. This was later supplemented by a more comprehensive act in 1917.

In this PPT you will be able to study about the integrated pest management in cotton, and the different pest which attacks the cotton crop, and what are the ways in which they can be prevented and its control measures (or) its management practices.
Identifications of different sugar cane varieties by muhammad faizan balochFaizan Baloch
Hi, My name is Muhammad Faizan Baloch, got overall second position BSc(Hons) and Now I am a student of MSc(Hons) Entomology and also working as Research and Development Officer at Almoiz Industries Limited Dera Ismail Khan, KpK, Pakistan. From last few years, i am working on various Sugarcane and Sugar Beet research projects.
Jan Steen (c1626-1679) was born in Leiden. He was a genre painter of everyday life. His painting is often lively and mocking, with humour and ironic. He study in University of Leiden in 1646 and 1648. He was also founded the Leiden painters’ Guild of St Luke, with Gabriel Metsu, one of the well-known Dutch painter of the Dutch Golden age. His came from a family who ran brewery and tavern keeper. He was also a tavern keeper himself.
He was a good and skilful painter, a master at capturing subtleties of facial expressions. He was skill in handling colour and technically. In his paintings there were stories to tell and moral messages embedding in the scene. But today many of these messages are lost before the Dutch society has changed and many tropical issues are forgetter now. However, there critics who said that his paintings are ‘unreal’ and do not reflect of daily life. He tended to exaggerate with too much scenes and happenings. I am sure that Jan Steen would say, in that way I can sell more paintings.
