National Strategy for Ethiopia's Agricultural Extension System

The strategy contains the visions, systemic bottlenecks, and priority interventions for the agricultural extension system in Ethiopia. The novel strategy on agricultural extension is based on the push to drive agricultural productivity and improve food security and nutrition through the development of innovative and farmer-owned extension services. The objective of the extension system is to "transform Ethiopia�s agriculture through implementation of pluralistic extension system and by providing demand-driven and market-led extension services to male, female and youth farmers, pastoralists and agro-pastoralists".
