A very few Agricultural Universities offers Distance Learning Programme (DLP) on Agriculture. By organizing the Distance Learning Programme effectively, it can bridge the extension gap. Distance Learning Programme meets the needs of the people who are unable to study through the conventional mode and helps those who are willing to acquire knowledge through education (in agriculture).
