Abstract: Many current trends affecting extension economist's education programs are found to be issues that go back 1/2 a century or more. Others involve issues that have been generally considered as part of economic theory, such as technology change. The emerging recasting of the social environment presents perhaps the most serious challenge to Extension economists program development.
