Agricultural extension is important in disseminating information, reducing poverty and promoting agricultural development in most developing countries. In the past, topdown public sector-driven model of extension was commonly used for information dissemination. The model, however, was ineffective because of various reasons such as limited resources (few staff and shortage of funds) hence its inability to reach a substantial number of farmers, especially the poor smallholder farmers living in remote and mountainous regions.
