| Résumé : |
The study reviewed agricultural extension in Botswana to assess its growth and achievements in ensuring good delivery since 1935 when formal structures of agricultural extension were beginning to establish. The objectives were to identify the strategies that have been used over time and to determine the merits and demerits associated with the strategies, then identify the challenges of the extension system and to determine the extend of use of the lessons from historical approaches in maintaining good service by the present extension system, finally to make recommendations for further improvement of extension service delivery. Published and unpublished secondary sources revealed several restructuring programs undergone by agricultural extension and up to 06 different extension approaches each time a new one was introduced. Aspects of challenges to effective extension delivery in Botsawana : administrative or management, staff training, physical, farmer and general have persisted through out the 65-year evolution of Botswana's agricultural extension service. Human resource management reforms such as job analysis, supportive supervisory interpersonal relationships, organizational development and work life improvement are discussed and recommended for further improvement of agricultural extension in Botswana. |
