【 摘 要 】

The extension system referred to asTraining and Visitation (T&V), which is currently widelyused in Africa, emerged from and was launched from theinitiatives of the 1980s to support agricultural extension.Since its introduction, this system has gone through severalpermutations, informed by the experiences on the ground ineach country. In the case of Madagascar, these permutationsled to supporting farmers' organizations anddiversification of the implementing agencies, which include,outside of the government and its units, non-governmentalorganizations (NGOs) and private operators.
