The book has chapters exclusively dedicated to throwing insights on extension research that researchers may find very useful. It goes into detail on research processes, critical assumptions and concepts, approaches, theory building, research designs and guiding principles. Various psychometric scaling techniques and psychological tests – grounded in behavioural theories and advanced methods – are also discussed. These chapters may be considerably useful for beginners in framing research studies systematically and scientifically. Similarly, two chapters focus exclusively on management, which has implications on the conduct of agricultural administration. Agriculture professionals tasked with running organizations may find some of the topics such as management theories, methods, organizational management, project management techniques and motivational and leadership theories, quite interesting. However, real life case examples would have made the chapter more relevant and useful. So, grab your gloves, gather your tools, and embark on this exciting journey with us. "The Complete Guide on Agricultural Extension Education" is your companion, empowering you to transform your space into a thriving oasis, one seed at a time.
