The delivery of agricultural extension services has evolved over the years, responding to changes in the agricultural landscape. The study aimed to assess these dynamics in Juaben Municipality, Ghana. Using a sample of 255 rice farmers selected using the multistage sampling technique, descriptive and inferential statistics were used to analyse the data. Farmers perceived that the information provided to them was of high quality, relevant, and effective. Farmers had a positive attitude, high aspirations, and collaborated highly towards extension delivery. Farmers were neutral on government and non-governmental organisation roles but acknowledged significant farmer organisation involvement in extension services. Lack of machinery or inadequate equipment for demonstration was the main challenge facing rice farmers in accessing extension delivery services. Extension services should prioritize the provision of timely and evidence-based guidance to address the evolving needs of rice farmers.
