Land based livelihood of small and marginal farmers are increasingly becoming unsustainable as their land had not been able to support the family s food requirements and fodder for their cattle. A new paradigm of rural development emerged that takes a broader view on the rural economy, incorporating economic activities other than farming, while highlighting the broad diversity of rural development processes. Such diversities in activities may include farm, non-farm and other non-agricultural activities, often linked with other activities carried out by rural as well as non-rural households. The evolution of the concepts and issues related to household food and nutritional security led to the development of the concept of household food and nutritional security led to the development of the concept of household livelihood security (HLS). A focus on livelihoods puts emphasis (i) people and their activities (ii) the holistic nature of people s activities and (iii) the links between the micro and macro issues. DFID stresses that there are five underlying principles to all approaches, where in poverty focused development activity as : (1) people centred, (2) responsive and participatory, (3) multi-level, (4) sustainable, and (5) dynamic.

All agricultural disciplines have to cope with the subsequent and emerging thoughts not to speak of extension education alone. The scope of extension education has gradually broadened enough without a shift in the basic focus to make it as comprehensive as possible. This discipline has undergone gradual metamorphosis through the last few decades. As a result of this process the discipline has been facing serious challenges particularly against the backdrop of globalization. The coverage of this book represents the fusion of traditional contents of the discipline with a number of emerging thoughts relevant to the discipline. As such this volume should serve the purpose beyond an ordinary text book on extension education. It should be treated as a reference book for several purposes. This book is meant for UG and PG students of agriculture veterinary and animal sciences fishery home science dairy science. Besides it should also serve as a reference manual for training and management centres like KVKs ATCs and various government departments cooperatives banks and NGOs and even for different management institutes. 408 pp.

Such development on holistic sense requires mix-up of rich tradition/culture with appropriate technological innovations. (jacket).
