The paper is an outcome of an exploratory case study of slaughterhouse which was made to identify and study those extension factors which affect productivity of slaughterhouse. Non-participant observation was the major tool for the data collection and it was substantiated by personal interviews wherever required. Based on the available literature and initial observations all those factors which can reflect on the efficiency and productivity of the slaughterhouse were identified and studied. The findings of the study have been discussed under four heads namely, infrastructure and physical environment, social structural, administrative, workers, and consumers. Findings of this study has brought forth many factors which are important to be addressed for effective extension interventions aimed at bringing desired changes for the better productivity of the organisation and better quality of produce.
