Abstract
This study was conducted to evaluate the extension activities of L s DO Department in District Toba Tek Singh. Analysis was made of the data collected through two separate interview schedules administered to randomly selected 120 farmer-respondents and 45 veterinary field staff-respondents (VFSR) respectively. The study indicated that more than 50% of the farmer-respondents knew Stock AssistantNeterinary Compounder both by face and name, while the Veterinary Officer was known by face only. About 72.50% of the farmerrespondents reported that these officials paid weekly to monthly visits to them. Awareness in respect of regular vaccination programme was quite high, while the adoption was comparatively low. However, adoption of various other improved practices such as formulation of balanced rations, treatment of rice/wheat straw with urea and fattening of sheep/goats/ calves was extremely low except artificial insemination. The VFSR pointed out problems faced by them such as lack of extension education training, conveyance facility and medicines.
