“…Understanding farmers' point of view is fundamental for providing contextualised advice. Finally, results also show that participants have a valuable degree of self-critical attitude, a fundamental aspect for reflecting on practice and developing new strategies to face problems (Landini & Brites, 2018) Respondents were asked to rank their most preferred to least preferred methods of working with farmers and with other social actors on a scale of 1 to 4. Potential answers included working with individuals, working with groups, inter-institutional and coordination work, and mass media.…”

“…En general, la bibliografía académica parece hacer focalizado en la capacidad transformadora de capacitaciones o talleres en los enfoques de los extensionistas (e.g. Landini & Brites, 2018;Nettle et al, 2018), quedando invisibilizado el rol del contexto y de las instituciones en la apertura de nuevos campos de experiencia o escenarios de práctica. Por ejemplo, la decisión del MAGA en Guatemala de trabajar con amplios sectores de población en situación de desnutrición indudablemente va a generar un impacto en el modo en que los extensionistas viven afectivamente su propio rol y se relacionan con su trabajo.…”

“…En este contexto, los autores llaman la atención sobre el impacto de estos cambios en las identidades profesionales y en el modo en que los extensionistas se relacionan con el conocimiento. Por su parte, Cerf et al (2011) en Francia y Landini & Brites (2018) en Argentina muestran que, cuando los extensionistas reflexionan críticamente sobre su práctica, tienden a poner en cuestión supuestos y creencias instituidas sobre su propio rol, lo que les permite transformar sus modelos profesionales y sus prácticas como extensionistas.…”

“…Targeted education and training interventions can remove such competence gaps, and training in different kinds of management and entrepreneurial competencies have therefore become increasingly important in developing and emerging countries (Falola et al, 2014;Fafchamps et al, 2014;Giné and Mansuri, 2014;Elnaga and Imran, 2013;Kraiger, 2003). Landini and Brites (2018) showed that implementing training processes focused on experience sharing and reflection on practice seems advisable for rural extension agents. Togbé et al (2015) found that training in good agricultural practice through participatory research experiments increase farmers' knowledge and practice of integrated pest management.…”
