| dc.description | This paper focusses on techniques for managing agricultural
extension staff.
A system of staff meetings, recording and reporting is described,
which was tested in the Mbere Special Rural Development Programme area.
The purpose of this system was to provide closer supervision of the
routine activities of agricultural extension staff, and its achievements
and limitations'in meeting this goal are discussed here.
A system of inservice training and planning workshops associated:
with new and/or more comprehensive extension activities was tested in
Kisii and Homa Bay. This is basically a management system for extension
planning which provides a tool for the effective participation of grassroots
level field staff.
The two management systems are considered complementary, and it
is proposed that they be combined to form a useful management tool for
agricultural extension. | |
