This research aimed to: 1) Determine the level of agricultural knowledge management (AKM) within the extension organization in Egypt according to the opinions of the extension leaders, 2) determine the level of application of the reengineering of administrative processes (RAP) within extension system from viewpoints of respondents, and 3) examine the relationship between the degree of AKM and the application of the RAP.

The governorates of Beni-Suef, Fayoum and Gharbia were randomly selected as a geographical framework for the field study.

Data were collected using a questionnaire administered on a sample of a 68 of the extension leaders including (Extension Directors, heads of extension departments, and directors of extension centers) in the studied governorates, during the period from February to March 2020.

Frequencies, percentages, mean, range, Cronbach's alpha, relative weight and Pearson's simple correlation coefficient were used for data analysis and presentation.

The study revealed that the average score for AKM in the agricultural extension organization in Egypt reached 89.04 degrees, representing about 80.22% of the total score of the scale, and the average score for the RAP in the extension organization reached 113.65 degrees, representing about 81.18% of the total score.

The study also revealed a significant correlation at the 0.01 level of significance between the degrees expressing dimensions of the “improving the image of workers” and “total reengineering” and between all dimensions of agricultural knowledge management, and between the “simplification of work procedures” and all dimensions of AKM except for the “transfer and diffuse knowledge”.
