Case study investigates how theoretical concepts help farmers and trainees effect change in practices.
If theoretical concepts are any good, they are practical and useful; they can help in exploring or understanding what goes on in the "real world." Some theoretical notions have been found useful in explaining what happens when an attempt is made to have farmers change practices. These same practical applications of theoretical ideas have been found useful in helping extension trainees understand how to work with people in effecting change. This case study explores an interesting experience between farmers and "university people."
