Abstract

This study focused on the comparison of implementation of agricultural extension to rural development between Thailand and China. Thailand is distinguished from China in terms of approaches to implementation of agricultural extension. The noticeable distinction lies in that alternatives chosen by Thailand are public, participatory approach and need oriented way, while those chosen by China are mixed public and private, top-down, technology driven way. However, the conventional extension methods such as demonstration, mass media are still the major choice both in Thailand and China. Agricultural Technology Transfer and Service Center (ATTC), as the fundamental operational extension institution at grassroots level in Thailand, firstly makes developing plans, and then conducts the extension activities by steering committee under the help of facilitators in participatory way. ATTC conducts various well-planned training activities through learning by systematic observations, training by successful farmer and specialists by demonstration, mass media, and live project, but most important learning process is highly emphasized to build up the farmer's capacity of self-reliance. Meanwhile Township Agricultural Techniques Extension Station (TATES) is the fundamental, operational extension agency at grassroots level in China, which implements extension programmes under the top-down direction. It is noticeable that it is flexible, diversified extension approaches co-exist in China, such as "Technical contracts between extension agents and farmer households", "Technique and agricultural input combination approach", "Extension by Technical Association in the village", "the company-led extension", other than the conventional approach. Those approaches are really practical to accommodate the

Abstract

This study focused on comparison of rural development by agricultural extension system at grassroots level and their contexts between Thailand and China. Difference in contexts such as ecology, society, economy and policy has made Thailand and China differentiate in setting up of agricultural extension system at the grassroots level. Agricultural Technology Transfer and Service Center (ATTC) at sub-district level, the lowest level of extension institution in Thailand, was established in 1999 to fulfill the policies of decentralization, participation, bottom-up to top-down direction, and provide the integrated service to farmers through "onestop service". The core structure of ATTC is the steering committee, who is elected from local farmers and other sectors that represent the community to make developing plans in a participatory way under the help of facilitators from governmental institutions and volunteer groups. ATTC is the center not only for technology transfer, but also for integrated service, coordination and information. To the large extent, ATTC represents the broader socio-economic, people-centered agricultural extension. Meanwhile China has Township Agricultural Techniques Extension Station (TATES) at the grassroots level of extension institution. TATES, compared with ATTC in Thailand, is a conventional extension agency that adopts technical-driven development methodology. Organizational structure of TATES was set up by the classification of different agricultural sectors, like field crop, fishery, animal husbandry, agricultural machinery and agricultural economy, which are called "five stations". In addition most of the TATES have the input sales branches. The extension agencies in TATES are mainly the same responsible for transfer technology through direction to and cooperation with the demonstration farmer households as in ATTC. It is noticeable that China has advocated multi-faced extension approaches, so should the extension agencies, education, research institutions, and private sectors can jointly play roles on the arena of rural development by non-profitable or profitable manners.
