Those with high educational levels perceived themselves as having higher competency. Extension Professionals (ER) viewed preservice, in-service, basic induction, and workshop/seminar/webinar as appropriate ways to acquire competencies. Government professionals leaned much more toward in-service and basic induction training than non-government professionals.","PeriodicalId":207752,"journal":{"name":"Journal of extension systems","volume":"21 4","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2017-08-25","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"113957035","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The structure and function of the Virginia extension has changed to serve the people in changing time, need and space. Unlike other countries, Virginia cooperative extension system is very unique as it provides complete package of extension services to the society guided by the Federal Government of USA. Through its multi-dimensional, multi-structured, and multi-leadership approach, it serves the society in many innovative ways. It provides almost all kinds of advisory services, training, demonstration and support with respect to crop and animal husbandry, industry, weather, safety and human health. In this manuscript, we made an attempt to bring these services before the world. It is based on a review of literature from books, papers, Virginia Cooperative Extension website, and personal discussions and observations. The paper reveals that Virginia tech is an important agent of Virginia extension system with a vast network to educate and train people of the society for sustainability of environment, agriculture and human health that have demonstrative utility for other countries of the world.","PeriodicalId":207752,"journal":{"name":"Journal of extension systems","volume":"10 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2017-08-25","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"131996921","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Seventy four percent of them had a manageable household size of 1-3 persons. Family and friends (68.90%) were the main sources of information of Zika Virus. Awareness score ranged between 1 and 8 with mean score of 1.50. Majority of the respondents had scores less than the mean score indicating low awareness of Zika Virus. The study further revealed that the knowledge score ranged between 1 and 6 with mean score of 1.74. Majority of the respondents had scores less than the mean indicating low knowledge of Zika Virus. Age (β = 0.02,) Education (β = 2.10), awareness (β = 1.19) and information on Zika virus (β = 1.24) were significantly related to their knowledge of Zika Virus. The study concluded that pregnant women had low awareness and poor knowledge of Zika virus disease.

Using pre-tested interview guides, data were collected from 124 randomly selected sawah farmers. The results showed that rice farmers were predominantly male, married and had Quranic education, with the mean age of 42.30 years, farm sizes ranged from 0.03 to10 hectares (X = 0.5ha), the mean yield was 4.65 tonnes/ha, and the mean income was $1,041.38 ($1 = N145.00). The hierarchical regression analyses revealed that personal and farming characteristics of farmers accounted for a significant variance in the level of adoption of sawah technology. Also security of land has significant influence on the level of adoption of sawah technology among the farmers. This study revealed the importance of land tenure arrangement to sawah adoption and therefore recommends for an urgent intervention to address land tenure related issues to enhance the prospects of green revolution in Nigeria.","PeriodicalId":207752,"journal":{"name":"Journal of extension systems","volume":"10 36","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2016-11-25","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"131438117","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
