Extract

It is the thesis of this paper that any educational system or institution, whatever its specific purpose, must be studied as a part of its people's total pattern of life. Agricultural education in any country can be understood and improved only in terms of the country's stage of development, not only in agriculture but also in all the other main enterprises of the people.
