LANDINI, Fernando. The Conception of "Rural Extension" of the Argentinian Rural Extensionists Working in the National Public System with Small Producers. Cuad. Desarro. Rural [online]. 2015, vol.12, n.75, pp.33-53. ISSN 0122-1450.  https://doi.org/10.11144/Javeriana.cdr12-75.cere.

We performed a survey via email to Argentinian extensionists that work in the national public sphere, given that the conceptions of extension guide the actions of extensionists in the field. We obtained 219 answers; open questions were categorized and quantified. The observed conception of extension does not correspond to the theoretical models and it can be seen there is articulation between elements corresponding to different models. The highlights include the importance of teamwork and participation, in the context of work with producers; the existence of a broad conception of development; and the proposal of interdisciplinary work on extension teams.

Palabras clave : diffusionist extension; extension models; rural extension practices; extentionist psychology.
