Özet
In the study, public extension service is examined through data collected from 538 extension workers in nine agricultural provinces of Turkey. Turkish extension service is influenced by the general top down and training-visit approaches which were employed in the past. These approaches are mainly directed to conventional production and yield increase, by using a topdown process that gives little place for human resources development and sustainable agriculture. New opportunities of digital devices such as cell phones, internet, and e-mail are generally underutilized in farmer training. The local participation is not at intended level during the formulation of extension activities in Turkey. © 2016, National Centre for Agrarian Sciences. All rights reserved.
