This study assessed through interviews the effectiveness of education and training for animal husbandry farmers in Kaohsiung County, based on the model formulated by D.L. Kirkpatrick, which includes the effectiveness of four tests on such levels as reaction, learning, behavior, and results. A s to the level of reaction, parking places were what the farmers were more cared about. Regarding curriculum, the farmers approved of what the agencies in charge had done with relation to content, teaching materials, and teachers. At the same time, the farmers more expected that more sessions could be offered, numbers of teaching hours could be increased, more pictures would be added to teaching materials, the instruction could be more practical, and teachers could describe on-site or clinical experience so as to share with the farmers. As to the level of learning, the farmers confirmed that attending education and training could increase their knowledge and technical skills in relation to preventing diseases and make them more confident in managing the farm (their work). So on the level of learning, the value is positive. The farmers looked forward to participating in visits and observation sessions so as to learn others¡¦ strengths and advantages. In addition, public health and husbandry management that have been increasingly emphasized are what the farmers most anxious to learn. As to the level of behavior, the farmers were more conservative in relation to the application of education and training in work. They would rather first try part of it, adjusted step by step, and then observed and augmented application. This was true to both farm management and workflow. However, the farmers emphasized the provision of information and sharing of practices and experience as what they needed most. As to the level of results, the farmers agreed that they could increase their production and revenue by decreasing costs and the death of animals when the animals grow up. They consider education and training helping in this regard. What the farmers really need from government agencies are focused on site work (practices). They expect government agencies to provide information, teachers, and teaching materials in this regard. At present, epidemic and contagious diseases are raging, and they hope to receive advice and assistance so as to avoid any trouble and losses that may be caused by sudden diseases.
