Abstract

The Importance of agricultural education as a method of fecilitating the diffusion of scientific ideas and practices in regard to agriculture has been sufficiently recognised to render the discussinof the subject welcome to all who are interested in th e agricultutal progress of th Country. it was not until after half a century of Indian Education that thought was bestowed on its serious defect and solutions were attempted. It reflects , therefore, no small credit on those interested in agricultural education that, so early in the history of it,they have set about finding the correct lines of advance. These efforts are no doubt part of the general reaction from the tendencies of Indian Education in general,but are for that very reason more sustained and energetic.
