EXTENSION SERVICES FOR SUSTAINABLE AGRICULTURE IN INTEGRATING AGROECOLOGY AND INDIGENOUS KNOWLEDGE: A REVIEW

2025 · PLANT ARCHIVES

Summary. Agricultural extension services can advance sustainable farming by integrating agroecological principles with indigenous knowledge systems. The review shows that participatory extension approaches empower farmers, enable co-learning, and preserve traditional practices alongside scientific innovation. Key strategies include supporting farmer innovation, community seed banks, organic soil management, and locally adapted crop varieties. Extension services succeed when they bridge modern science and traditional wisdom, supported by policy changes and curriculum reorientation toward pluralistic knowledge systems.
