Abstract

Extension must continue to "wholesale" its information products as new entrants in the farm information market become active. Unfortunately, farmers often look to Extension to be advocates for them in the public policy process. [A mature relationship] implies a major shift of resources away from commercial agriculture to be able to compete in the political marketplace for continued public dollars.
