Question (English)
Extension is a two-way channel between:
- Researcher and farmer ✓ Correct
- Extension worker and farmer
- Teacher and planner
- Researcher and teacher
Explanation:
Correct Answer: Researcher and farmer
Extension is a two-way channel between the researcher and the farmer. Information flows from researcher → to farmer through extension workers, AND feedback flows from farmer → back to researchers.
The Extension Link System
- Three linkages in extension: (a) Research, (b) Teaching, (c) Extension
- Extension acts as the bridge that carries knowledge from research stations to farming communities.
- It is NOT one-directional — the farmer's practical experiences, problems, and feedback also travel back to researchers to guide future research.
The Extension Worker's Role
The extension worker is a Friend, Philosopher, and Guide to the farmer — facilitating the two-way flow between research and farm practice.
