Capacity building involves compulsory training and skills development for extension workers and farmers, along with effective reward systems. Training is essential for individuals to acquire new skills and knowledge, fitting them for their roles. The process includes developing competencies required for specific occupations and bridging the gap between employee competence and organizational requirements. Education differs from training in terms of information acquisition and practical instruction. The needs for training include technology proficiency, skills development for trainers, inspiring rural communities, and improving job proficiency. The training process consists of pre-training, training itself, and post-training phases involving various steps such as needs assessment, program planning, resource allocation, and logistics arrangement.
