Abstract

Livestock extension services have been traditionally funded, managed and delivered by the public sector in India until recently. Since the early 1990' s economic reforms, the public sector monopoly came under increasing threat as many started questioning the economic and efficiency grounds. Financial stringency and increasing private and voluntary agency involvement in the service provision have accelerated the process of limiting the role of the State in livestock extension. Decentralization, costs sharing, cost recovery, withdrawal from selected services and contracting are some of the options suggested. This paper focus is on rationalization of services keeping in view the interests of the stakeholders, externalities and withdrawal of state from selected services
