Extension Viewpoint
• Develop and deploy latest communication tools to raise
farmers’ awareness about the economic, social and
environmental benefits of adoption of IPNM.
• Conduct field demonstrations applying locally-adapted
IPNM techniques and prepare literature/media campaign
with the results from the local demonstrations.
• Assist farmers in making the best decisions for managing
crop nutrients at the field and farm levels.
• Provide farmers with all necessary products, services and
information to successfully implement IPNM.
• Training of the extension agents for best use of modern
gadgets and techniques to assist farmers
