Type de document : texte imprimé Auteurs : U.

The complexity and variety of production systems and the ever changing political morphology requires that extension models that are flexible enough to suit all these changes are developed. The effectiveness of the extension interventions should also hinge on the objectives of the intervention vis-à-vis the needs , expectations and targeting of the beneficiaries. In the Zimbabwe scenario, prioritization of the development of interventions , methodologies, efficient decision-support tools in the extension sector, should be given critical support if the agricultural sector is to be revived. Zimbabwe has gone through a series a land reform phases, of which the last phase at the turn of the new millenium, which was disorganized and riddled with political conundrum, has proved to be detrimental to agricultural productivity and has resulted in food deficits and increased poverty in many communal areas. While fast tract land redistribution is undoubtedly a noble idea to address the social and economical setups in Zimbabwe. Moreover, it appears that the fast tract land redistribution also coincided with the non-governmental organization to continue with the extension services. This paper therefore attempts to give a critical analysis of the current extension approaches in Zimbabwe’s agricultural sector and their suitability in turning around productivity, taking cognizance of the ongoing land reform programme .
