Project Appraisal Report as of 3/19/69 for FY63/FY72 Agric Extension Proj in Thailand. Proj promotes extension training, crop protection demo activities, linkage to agric research, & expansion and strengthening of Farmers' Clubs with the aim of increasing farm production & income and raising rural living standards in politically-sensitive Changwats of N & NE Thailand. Proj judged to be on schedule with implementation progressing slowly but satisfactorily, with future prognosis very good. Progress spurred by integration of disparate division extension activities into a new Ministry of Agric (MOA) Agric Extension Dept with energetic, key personnel committed to fieldwork. Demo activities have spread to every Amphoe with great initial success in crop protection and in experimentation with new & improved crop varieties in substitution of the traditional rice crop. Farmers' clubs & associations now consolidated into Farmers' Club Demonstration Centers with extension agent & two home economists assigned to each. Trng has been provided for farm club leaders; proj success largely due to direct farmer participation in operation of local extension activities in contrast to less-successful
