Extension serves as a vital link in transferring and exchanging knowledge among actors, including researchers, agricultural technicians, and farmers. However, the majority of extension programs in developing countries struggle with a variety of challenges. Furthermore, very little research has been conducted from the perspectives of extension agents. Extension workers provide smallholder farmers with extension services and work closely with them, and understanding their perspectives could help the government, private and international funding agencies gain valuable information to shape policies and programs to improve project efficacy and recommend any institutional adjustments that may be required to increase the effectiveness of the extension services and lessen the burden on extension workers.This study takes a qualitative approach, using semi-structured interview questions and individual discussions with respondents to understand extensionists' perspectives, experiences, and challenges in promoting knowledge about improved farming practices. This study also reports information on the relationship between the project approach and the difficulties faced by the extension agents. The majority of respondents were adamant that agricultural extension could only function more effectively if the extension system were set up flexibly and the project approach was realistically and sustainably framed to address the issues faced by the project's beneficiaries. In addition, extension agents hoped that the organization would create a platform where all stakeholders, especially extension agents and project beneficiaries, could express their views and contribute to making the necessary adjustments in project interventions in light of the local situation. Finally, this research aims to shed light on what changes extensionists might like to see in how the system works.
