THE ROLE OF UNIVERSITY AND HIGHER EDUCATION IN AGRICULTURAL DEVELOPMENT IN THE TWO PARTS OF YEMEN
Auther : By: Prof. Mohamed M. Al-Masoodi
This paper deals with the current standard of agricultural production and food security and the general areas of their development in Yemen.
The introduction discusses the problem of food security in the two parts of Yemen, the current standard of agricultural production and the problem facing its development.
Next, the role of education and scientific research in agricultural development is delineated. University agricultural education in both Aden and Sana’a is dealt with and suggestions for its development are provided. The percentage of students in the College of Agriculture to the total number of the university students is given. It is shown that the standard of agricultural education is too low and its role in agricultural development is almost completely absent.
Conclusions and suggestions for the effective use of scientific research and agricultural education in agricultural development are the last part of the paper.
