description | '100 Years of Excellence in Agriculture' is the story of the Department of Agriculture of Peninsular Malaysia, its contributions and the changes it underwent in the past century in efforts to bring about the agricultural as well as the socioeconomic development of the country. The book traces the historical perspectives of the existence and contributions of the Department through the myriad programmes and activities that it has carried out over the last century. It begins with a description of the early years of the Department and its changing structure and functions in response to policy changes which set the direction for the development of the sector. While focusing on extension as a major function, the book also examines the various programmes undertaken by the department in modernizing agriculture, namely through technological innovations and advancement, for example mechanisation and pest and disease management. The role of women in agriculture and entrepreneurship is also highlighted. New strategies and approaches adopted by the Department that it will pursue in the future are also examined. The book provides easy reading, presenting a wealth of information on technological as well as social aspects of agricultural development in Peninsular Malaysia. These are provided in a pictorial form and written in a popular style. The book is a 'must', not only for the academicians and historians but also the general public interested in knowing the history of the Department and the development of agriculture in the country. The book is the culmination of efforts of the editorial team of the Department and is the result of the contribution of all its other officers, without whose participation this book would not have become a reality.-- |
