READING TESTS 
Agriculture remains the most essential area for 
development: here it is felt that the most intractable 
problems of resistance to change exist. One may 
believe that scientific training in agriculture by itself 
is unlikely to have any marked impact on 
agricultural output. Any attempt at vocational 
training in agriculture presupposes mat a meaningful 
structure of incentive can be seen for the individual 
farmer to increase his production, improve his 
techniques, and expand his range of activities. 
Without such incentives and chances, agricultural 
education can have only little impact.
