Role of private agricultural extension agents began emerging in the 1980s when the government reduced the budget for extension program. In Indonesia, existence of private extension agents is officially depicted in the Act No. 16 of 2006 that applies participatory paradigm in which private agents are expected to meet the demand for extension workers. However, until now or almost ten years since this regulation was issued the mobilization of private extension agents has not been executed yet. This paper aims to review various ideas and research results in some countries where private extension has been practiced. Existing conditions and some limitations of the government, as well as commercialization pressure of agricultural products coupled with the growing communication systems, lead to the presence of private extension as a necessity. However, to optimize the role of private extension agents the government needs to implement the previous existing policies to develop an effective extension system.

This study examines the determinants of revenue of homestead fish production in Ogun State, Nigeria. Descriptive statistics, budgetary and regression models were the tools employed for the analysis of data obtained from 72 fish farmers. Most of the farmers are within the economically active age bracket, having a mean household size of 6 with high level of educational status. Farmers in the study area practiced mono-culture and poly-culture fish farming. Sole clarias enterprise recorded the lowest net farm income while Tilapia/heteroclarias enterprise has the highest net farm income. The quadratic functional form is chosen as the lead equation. The pond size, quantity of fish seeds stocked other significant, determinants of the revenue that accrue to homestead fish production in Ogun state, Nigeria. This study therefore suggests that policy variables such as pond size, labour and fingerlings that influence the aquaculture revenue should be strengthened for sustainable fish production to be attained in Ogun State and in Nigeria.
