Over the past four decades, agricultural extension services have improved considerably. What and why have the extension of agriculture changed? Will these developments affect farmers’ adoption of innovations? What, if anything, particularly in developed countries, should policymakers and extension agencies do otherwise? In agriculture, new types of agriculture technology, tight public budgets, decentralization initiatives by the government and evolving technologies of information and communication (ICT), the extension of public and private funding structures and expansion of operations were pluralized and, in some instances, lowered in costs and advisory services combined. Farmersand virtual networks play an increasing role in the spread of technology, and extension services may use the new ICT methods to leverage these networks. This study focuses on the changes in farming activities in the area of Egra, WB, India due to weather conditions.
