| Summary: | The Cameroon National Agricultural
Extension Project is a good practice example of partnership
between the government extension service and private
agro-input supply companies. The key to success is the
ability to leverage the comparative advantage of each party
without compromising the efficiency, objectivity or the
principles of the extension services. The private suppliers
provide new technology while the national extension service
shares its experience in testing new technologies with
farmers through small-scale demonstration plots. |
