- Formerly known as European Journal of Agricultural Education and Extension (1994 – 1998)
Abstracting & indexing
The Journal of Agricultural Education & Extension is currently abstracted/indexed in: SCOPUS, CABI, Agricultural Online Index (AGRICOLA), Education Resources Information Center (ERIC).
Aims & scope
The Journal of Agricultural Education & Extension is published to inform experts who do or use research on agricultural education and extension about research conducted in this field worldwide. Information about this research is needed to improve policies, strategies, methods and practices for agricultural education and extension. The Journal of Agricultural Education & Extension accepts authorative and well-referenced scientific articles within the field of agricultural education and extension after a double-blind peer review process.
Agricultural education and extension faces profound change, and therefore its core area of attention is moving towards communication, competence development and performance improvement for a wide variety of fields and audiences, most of which can be studied from a multi-disciplinary perspective, including:
- Communication for Development
- Competence Management and Development
- Corporate Social Responsibility and Human Resource Development
- Design and Implementation of Competence–based Education
- Environmental and Natural Resource Management
- Entrepreneurship and Learning
- Facilitating Multiple-Stakeholder Processes
- Health and Society
- Innovation of Agricultural-Technical Education
- Innovation Systems and Learning
- Integrated Rural Development
- Interdisciplinary and Social Learning
- Learning, Conflict and Decision Making
- Poverty Reduction
- Performance Improvement
- Sustainable Agricultural Production
The Journal of Agricultural Education & Extension sees as the purposes of agricultural education and extension to prepare students for leadership, management, and technical support roles, to further develop the public, independent workers, volunteers and professionals, and to improve practices in the fields mentioned. This should be achieved whilst balancing people, profit and planet interests.
All submissions must comply with the Instruction for Authors.
Peer Review
The Journal of Agricultural Education & Extension ensures that all articles published in the journal have undergone rigorous peer review, based on initial screening by the editorial committee and anonymous refereeing by two referees who are active in the academic community. The purpose of the refereeing process is to ensure that articles provide relevant and accurate material for those who do and use research, including: researchers, academics, agricultural education and extension managers, trainers and experts, communication professionals, human resources specialists, and policy makers.

HISTORY “40years”
Previous Seminars
The first European Seminar was held in 1973 in Finland, when European agriculture was transforming from a traditional practical activity to an industry of managed businesses, and Extension Services were changing from practice based on experience to professional consultation based on communication theories. The seminar gave an opportunity to exchange ideas and experience among university staff and private and professional personnel concerned with Extension Education.
During the 40 years of the Seminar history, the seminars have continued each other year, in different host countries. The last ESEE was organized in Helsinki in 2011.
During the 19th ESEE in Perugia, Fabio and Leena performed a small act of symbolic ‘handing over’, in order to practice our visual thinking. Below that, you see the “family picture”.

Newcomer questioning an experienced ESEE participant
AUGUST 27, 2009
by josienkapma
Source: http://19esee.wordpress.com/2009/08/27/newcomer-questioning-an-experienced-esee-participant/
The 19th ESEE will be the first ~for me. I know about ESEE from Eelke Wielinga, an experienced ESEE go-er. Eelke Wielinga works as senior researcher for the Agricultural Economics Institute, which is part of Wageningen (NL) University and Research on network dynamics and knowledge systems. He has is own consultancy firm as well: LINK Consult. I took the opportunity to ask a few more questions.
What is ESEE about?
I asked Eelke what to expect of ESEE, and why the name “extension education”. He said that ESEE is “a scientific, but relatively informal” gathering. The name European Seminar on Extension Education comes from the history of the event. ESEE was started by a number of universities offering courses in agricultural extension.
The name ESEE is now a bit outdated in several ways: the seminar is no longer limited to educational institutes, and many non-Europeans participate. The field of agricultural extension has evolved, as agriculture is now just one of many functions of rural areas. The term “extension” for many among us feels too much like doling out parcels of knowledge. Nowadays terms like knowledge sharing or learning processes as a part of integrated rural development are used to indicate the field.
We now regard rural development as a process with many stakeholders, such as people living in the area, farmers, entrepreneurs, local government, policy makers, trainers and advisors, education and research. Representatives of all these may be found at the ESEE seminar -what they share is an interest in the knowledge side of things.
Do you all know each other? Will I be the only newcomer?
Eelke estimates that about 50% of participants are familiar with ESEE, 50% are new (or newer) to ESEE. In people, there is some overlap with other meetings, such as IFSA (that also gather every two years, conveniently alternating with ESEE) or the European Society of Rural Sociology, that just met in Finland in August.
What do you -as a participant and organisor- hope to achieve this ESEE?
Eelke is in the scientific committee this year. As the organizing team, they feel that ESEE should not be like some congresses: a place to ‘drop off’ scientific papers. ESEE can be used to build up a discussion and to grow towards a common understanding of the major issues in our field, and maybe an agenda for the near future.
Eelke Wielinga: “Aren’t we professionals who deal with engaging their participants in their events? Who apply an interesting mix of methods to build towards joint learning or to tangible results? This is what we do or teach, let’s practise it among ourselves as well! Besides, new media are rapidly gaining importance compared to the classical tools of extension, and we should look at them. Preferably even make use of them.”
Eelke will be satisfied with the 19th ESEE if there is a feeling of true exchange, of interaction and of enthusiasm with participants.
The Seminar’s final aim (as written here) is:
“To state strongly and loudly that advisory work (…) is a relevant component of the agro-food system and that its effectiveness is crucial for the progress of agriculture and for an holistic rural development.”
Eelke adds: Rural development is a complex system which adjusts to changing conditions. Let us reflect on how the conditions are changing, how the systems we work with are adjusting, how they are coping. The relevance of our work should be obvious, should be demonstrated by our stories, our engagement and our enthusiasm, rather than merely claimed.
