1. MODIFIED EXTENSION REFORMS SCHEME,2010 NOW

2. BACKGROUND

3. Realizing the various challenges AGRO CLIMATIC & ADMINISTRATIVE Scheme needs to be modified To overcome the systemic constraints referred during zonal workshops. Weightage to size of the States in terms of number of Blocks was not given in the pre-revised Scheme. Lack of manpower. Extension delivery below the Block level. Inadequate infrastructure at(SAMETIs); Lack of convergence with other schemes of Centre and State. Limited support for connectivity & mobility.

4. Scheme has now been modified and strengthened Provision of specialist and functionary support at different levels Innovative support through a ‘Farmer Friend’ at Village Level Revision in ATMA Cafeteria Farmers Advisory Committees at State, District and Block levels Support to SAMETIs for creating essential infrastructure Delegation of powers to State Level Sanctioning Committee

5. Objectives of the revised scheme Providing innovative, restructured and autonomous institutions at the state/district/ block level. Encouraging multi-agency extension strategies involving Public/ Private Extension Service Providers. Ensuring an integrated, broad-based extension delivery mechanism consistent with farming system approach. Adopting group approach to extension in line with the identified needs and requirements of the farmers in the form of CIGs & FIGs; Facilitating convergence of programmes in planning, execution and implementation. Addressing gender concerns by mobilizing farm women into groups and providing training to them. Moving towards sustainability of extension services through beneficiary contribution.
