Extension Programme
Planning
The first step in any systematic attempt to
promote rural development is to prepare
useful programmes based on people
needs. The development of such
programmes, require planning which
harmonize with the local needs as the
people see them and with the national
interests with which the country as a
whole is concerned, is an important
responsibility of extension personnel at
all levels- national, state, district, block &
village.

 Starting point of programme planning.
 Pertinent data may be collected from the
available records.
 Information: enterprise, levels of technology,
facilities and constraints, values etc.
 Collected from panchayats, cooperatives
and other organizations in the areas.
 Data and information collected are then
analyzed with the local people.

 Understanding the situation in a proper


way.
 A proper analysis and interpretation of data
shall help in correctly identifying the
problems.
 Only urgent and significant ones which may
be solved with the available resources and
with in the limits of time, should be
selected.
 Properly managed.
 Objectives are then set forth on the basis
of significant need identified.
 Direct and clear.

To make the objectives realistic and actionable:


 Go through the data and information analyzed.
 To find what could actually be done in existing
situation, with the available resources and time
 Which will be compatible.
 Plan of work should be in written form and
shall indicate who shall do what job, what
the change agent system, client system shall
do, which institution, organizations, service
department shall be involved.

important point should be left out.

information, conducting
method demonstration, making regular visits
and monitoring are some important
functions.

 Solving unforeseen problems and taking


corrective steps where needed.
 Evaluation is the process of determining the
extent to which we have been able to
attain our objectives.
Evaluation has number of advantages:
 Help to establish a bench mark-the situation
at the start of the programme.
 Shows how far our plans have progressed.
 Whether we are proceeding in the right
direction.
 Indicate the effectiveness of a programme.
 Help to locate strong and weak points in any
programme or plan.
 On the basis of results of evaluation, the
programme should be reconsidered and
revised if needed.
 This reconsideration should be done not only
with the participants but also with the
scientists, extension managers etc.
 The purpose of such an exercise is to make
the extension programme more effective
removing the defects.
