An incisive reading of the book ‘Agricultural Extension in Kerala: A Service Delivery Framework’ authored by Dr P Rajasekharan and Dr C Bhaskaran, published by the Kerala State Planning Board, evokes a plethora of questions on the drivers of change in the agricultural sector and how best the extension delivery system has been able to address them. Though the book does not specifically attempt to document the phases of transition in agriculture and concomitant changes required in the extension strategies, it is heartening that it gives an unprecedented overview of the institutional changes in the extension delivery systems in Kerala over a period of time. The book has documented these changes comprehensively and explained the contexts of resultant changes.
