Simeon C. Fernandez

Abstract


This study utilized the underlying qualitative research design and examines the dimensions of the readiness of the City Agriculture Personnel in the Implementation of City Agriculture Fishery Extension Services (CAFES) and developed an institutional framework model. Data were derived from interviews with key respondents of the Davao City Agriculture Office and supported by secondary information. Thematic-content analysis was used to analyze transcripts of their own personal opinions, experiences, and insights. Findings from this qualitative inquiry, show that Devolution Transition Plan (DTP); Personnel Structure and Budget, Policies and Ordinances, and enabling mechanisms such as Strategic Action Plans and Projects are the significant elements in the effective implementation of the decentralized agricultural and fishery extension services delivery.
