Left to right, are the newly-elected executives of the Canadian Agricultural Extension Council for 1983: secretary-treasurer, Bob Brack of Saskatchewan, past president Dick Huggard of Nova Scotia, new president Irene Leavitt of Alberta, and vice-president Kevin Aucoin of Newfoundland. The need for a serious look at present university and college programs for training agricultural extension workers in Canada from the standpoint of communication skills was stressed at an extension conference in Fredericton, Nova Scotia, recently. The Canadian Agricultural Extension Council held three days of meetings with talks focused on the future role of agricultural extension in the overall development of the agriculture and food sector in Canada. The meetings were attended by representatives from all the provinces except British Columbia and Ouebec. Nancy Cook, director of the Food Nutrition Branch of the New Brunswick Department of Agriculture and co-ordinator of the 36th annual conference, said extension workers are properly trained technically but often lack training in social sciences to better communicate their skills to farmers. - (cont'd) - /dibcrra AGRICULTURE (403) 427 21 2 1 Print Modia Brqp^t^.
