information service are prepared in universities. Professors and teachers of universities
are engaged in scientific works, education and other advice giving activities according

are regulated by contracts. Local departments of advisory and information service are
governed and coordinated by the existing departments of the universities. Advisory and
information service was organized on the basis of agricultural colleges and vocational
schools in Germany. It was difficult for teachers to gain respect and trust of their
students and local leaders who have great influence. Such a mutual relation increases
effectiveness of advisory and information service.
Advisory and information service in Denmark was established on the basis of
farmers' organizations and industrial associations. Private advisory service plays an
important role in the agricultural development of New Zealand. Advisory and
information service is fully financed on the account of budget resource in Belgium and
Italy, and is presented to farmers free of charge. In France and Finland advisory and
information service is led by farmer organizations and partly financed by state budget.
Information service is led by companies and farmer organizations in Netherlands,
Australia and Israel. In this case, 50% of service fees are paid on the account of state
budget, the other part by agriculture producers. So, different organizational models of
advisory and information service for farmers are operating in world practice.
Development of each of them is connected with historical traditions, economical
situation, state policy and other issues existing in the country.
