Extending Ethics

The primary objective of a series of workshops was to explore the ethical dimensions of Extension\u27s role in achieving agricultural sustainability. A complementary objective was to increase participants\u27 awareness of the ethical dimensions of agriculture. The workshops revealed that the ethics of agricultural practice is not a routine concern of Extension personnel. If the small sample from these workshops represents the view of the majority of Extension personnel, it is, at a minimum, interesting, and perhaps indicates a deficiency that should be addressed
