Cyber Extension: Information is an important resource in modern agriculture. The development of computers and improvements in telecommunication offers farmers and extension workers, many new opportunities to obtain technical and economic information quickly and use it effectively for their decision making.

Cyber: According to Oxford Dictionary the word Cyber means, “relating to Information Technology, the Internet, and virtual reality, the Cyber Space”

The Cyber Space: Cyber Space is the imaginary or Virtual space of computers connected with each other on Networks, across the globe. These computers can access information in the form of Text, Graphics, audio, video and animation files. Software tools on networks provide facilities to interactively access the information from connected servers. The cyber space thus can be defined as the imaginary space behind the interconnected telecommunications and computer networks, the virtual world.

Cyber Extension: Cyber Extension thus can be defined as the “Extension over Cyber Space” or ‘Extension over virtual space’. As the word Extension is subject-neutral, so is Cyber Extension. But in the applied context of Agriculture, Cyber Extension means “using the power of online networks, computer communications and digital interactive multimedia to facilitate dissemination of agricultural technology”.

Cyber Extension means, "Using the power of online networks, computer communications and digital interactive multimedia to facilitate dissemination of agricultural technology".

Cyber Extension includes effective use of Information and Communication technology, national and international information Networks, Internet, Expert Systems, Multimedia Learning Systems and Computer based training systems to improve information access to the Farmers, Extension Workers, Research Scientists and Extension Managers.
