Abstract:
This agroforestry extension assessment study was conducted as part of the baseline study undertaken to support programmes implemented in the Agroforestry and Forestry in Sulawesi: Linking Knowledge with Action project (the ‘AgFor project’), which is funded by the Canadian International Development Agency (CIDA). The objectives of this study were to list and analyse existing agroforestry extension practices that have been implemented at community level, and to list community needs for potential agroforestry extension services that could be implemented under the AgFor project. Focus group discussions at community level were held to collect information on types of priority species in local livelihoods, existing and potential extension activities, demonstration plots, cross-visit programmes, needs for marketing training, gender preferences regarding extension programmes, and the potential media communications used in extension activities. The results of this baseline survey were useful for designing and implementing the extension activities in the AgFor project.
