Farmer Led Extension is a promising approach wherein farmer leaders were utilized as extensionists to transfer the technologies they learned with a view to boosting up production.
The FLE approach gives farmers the opportunity to share their experiences and practices through a method demonstration with fellow farmers in the area.
Reasons for Group Led Extension
1. Efficiency
2. Effectiveness
3. Collective action
4. Equity
Farm school :
“Farm school is a field where latest technology was demonstrated to progressive and interested farmers who undergo training for a certain period of time. Farm schools help in speedy dissemination and adoption of technologies through training of progressive farmers on the latest production technology.”
Market led extension is a paradigm shift from mere production led extension to market ward orientation of the extension system such that with market analysis and market information one continue for market oriented production. It is a tried between Fish Farmer/ Agro Farmer, Extension System and Economics particularly Market.

Increasing groundnut productivity of smallholder farmers in ghana,mali and ni...ICRISAT
In West Africa, groundnut is a very important grain legume crop for smallholder farmers, especially women, it is a major cash crop for many households; it contributes to soil fertility with biological nitrogen fixation; and its haulm is a good livestock feed. Despite its importance, the productivity of the crop remains low with yield of around 1t ha-1 compared with global average of 1.5t ha-1 and over 3t ha-1 in USA and China.
It is precondition of success to any development project/ program 'the participation of Farmers'. How to involve them and how we can achieve the participation.
Horticulture with animal husbandry is most suitable farming system in Hill and Mountain ecosystems. It has varied options for employment and conservation of environment.
PURA project was the dream project of our beloved Ex President Dr A P J Abdul Kalam and was initiated in the Tehri district of Uttarakhand as pilot project.
Earlier Uttarakhand was thought as Cyber state but it is very far from being. The steps towards cyber state are week. People's awareness, participation and investment for infrastructure are poor. There is a great scope of ICT for agricultural development in the state.
Hill and Mountain ecosystems comes under risk prone agriculture. Devastation in Uttarakhand compeled us to think over risk prone agriculture and develop managerial methods.
Use of It in Agriculture. There are several examples but for example one is addressed. For another green revolution IT is must and farmers should be educated.
June 3, 2024 Anti-Semitism Letter Sent to MIT President Kornbluth and MIT Cor...Levi Shapiro
Letter from the Congress of the United States regarding Anti-Semitism sent June 3rd to MIT President Sally Kornbluth, MIT Corp Chair, Mark Gorenberg
Dear Dr. Kornbluth and Mr. Gorenberg,
The US House of Representatives is deeply concerned by ongoing and pervasive acts of antisemitic
harassment and intimidation at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT). Failing to act decisively to ensure a safe learning environment for all students would be a grave dereliction of your responsibilities as President of MIT and Chair of the MIT Corporation.
This Congress will not stand idly by and allow an environment hostile to Jewish students to persist. The House believes that your institution is in violation of Title VI of the Civil Rights Act, and the inability or
unwillingness to rectify this violation through action requires accountability.
Postsecondary education is a unique opportunity for students to learn and have their ideas and beliefs challenged. However, universities receiving hundreds of millions of federal funds annually have denied
students that opportunity and have been hijacked to become venues for the promotion of terrorism, antisemitic harassment and intimidation, unlawful encampments, and in some cases, assaults and riots.
The House of Representatives will not countenance the use of federal funds to indoctrinate students into hateful, antisemitic, anti-American supporters of terrorism. Investigations into campus antisemitism by the Committee on Education and the Workforce and the Committee on Ways and Means have been expanded into a Congress-wide probe across all relevant jurisdictions to address this national crisis. The undersigned Committees will conduct oversight into the use of federal funds at MIT and its learning environment under authorities granted to each Committee.
• The Committee on Education and the Workforce has been investigating your institution since December 7, 2023. The Committee has broad jurisdiction over postsecondary education, including its compliance with Title VI of the Civil Rights Act, campus safety concerns over disruptions to the learning environment, and the awarding of federal student aid under the Higher Education Act.
• The Committee on Oversight and Accountability is investigating the sources of funding and other support flowing to groups espousing pro-Hamas propaganda and engaged in antisemitic harassment and intimidation of students. The Committee on Oversight and Accountability is the principal oversight committee of the US House of Representatives and has broad authority to investigate “any matter” at “any time” under House Rule X.
• The Committee on Ways and Means has been investigating several universities since November 15, 2023, when the Committee held a hearing entitled From Ivory Towers to Dark Corners: Investigating the Nexus Between Antisemitism, Tax-Exempt Universities, and Terror Financing. The Committee followed the hearing with letters to those institutions on January 10, 202
2024.06.01 Introducing a competency framework for languag learning materials ...Sandy Millin
http://sandymillin.wordpress.com/iateflwebinar2024
Published classroom materials form the basis of syllabuses, drive teacher professional development, and have a potentially huge influence on learners, teachers and education systems. All teachers also create their own materials, whether a few sentences on a blackboard, a highly-structured fully-realised online course, or anything in between. Despite this, the knowledge and skills needed to create effective language learning materials are rarely part of teacher training, and are mostly learnt by trial and error.
Knowledge and skills frameworks, generally called competency frameworks, for ELT teachers, trainers and managers have existed for a few years now. However, until I created one for my MA dissertation, there wasn’t one drawing together what we need to know and do to be able to effectively produce language learning materials.
This webinar will introduce you to my framework, highlighting the key competencies I identified from my research. It will also show how anybody involved in language teaching (any language, not just English!), teacher training, managing schools or developing language learning materials can benefit from using the framework.

12. Extension Strategy of 21st Century
• A primary goal is how to reduce investment in
agricultural extension while maintaining food security.
• India is in the process of privatizing its input system to
improve farmer access to purchased inputs and to
create a more efficient input supply system.
• Indian extension system will likely shift its attention to
pressing natural resource management problems, while
leaving the task of transferring crop management
technologies to private sector dealers.
• To make extension and the overall technology transfer
system more demand-driven and responsive to farmer
needs.
• Privatizing the input supply system increases its
efficiency as well as farmer access to improved
technology.
17. Farmer Field School
• The Farmer Field School is evolved from the concept
that farmers learn optimally from field observation and
experimentation in 1989 (Indonesia).
• In this cyclical learning process, farmers develop the
expertise that enables them to make their own crop
management decisions.
