Provision of and Request for Agricultural Extension Services
利用以色列数据，分析经济、社会和政策变量如何同时决定农业推广服务的提供与需求，发现两者相互影响，且定居点的结构、规模、年龄和距推广中心的距离是关键因素。
Abstract Provision of and request for extension services are simultaneously determined by economic, social, and policy variables. This paper examines the allocation of extension services provided to settlements in terms of a demand‐supply model using data from Israel. Results suggest that the amount of extension provided affects the request for extension and vice versa. Other variables influencing the amount of extension services provided and requested are structure, scale, and age of the settlement and its distance from the extension center. The role of a settlement coordinator is of great importance in determining the amount of services provided.
