Notes:
Includes a discussion (p. 151) about attitudes of rural residents in support of rural post offices, despite potentials for using electronic technology instead of physical delivery of mail. "Of the Service's 40,000 buildings, 30,800 can be considered community or rural installations and generate only 4.5% of the total revenues." Mentions (p. 216-217) several agricultural applications of computer networks. (p. 217) Farmers are among the latest group to join a fast-growing list of non-technical users of computer networks. They are becoming aware that farming is not a way of life but a business - one that needs management tools." Predicts (p. 237) "In the nineties the issue will be one of equality of access to information, with the specialized networks doing very well financially because of the valuable and efficient services they will be providing. For some time, thoughtful observers have expressed fear that the emerging information society will produce a new class of information elite, and, indeed, there do exist two classes of people and businesses: the information users and the information used." Observes that electronic technologies are not decentralizing and opening access to business opportunities, but leading toward concentration of the components of the network marketplace. (p. 237) "This greater concentration of intellectual power in the emerging information society can only lead to concentrations of industrial and financial power which are not in concert with the American economic dream."
Describes the weakening of Bruce B. Brewer Company, a major agriculture-oriented advertising agency in Kansas City, Missouri, after it was acquired by Young & Rubicam advertising agency, New York, in mid-1974.

INTERPAKS, In: Workshop on Linkages Between Agricultural Research and Farmers in Developing Countries; 1981 May 13-14. New York, NY : Rockefeller Foundation, 1981. 25 p., Begins with an overview of the technology development process which includes 3 principal action agents: a) the research service, b) the extension service, and c) the farmers. Points out the significant influence the service institutions and government policies have on the process. Delineates some of the weaknesses seen in the effectiveness of the various types of agents and points out the key variables in the technology development process. Raises the issues that need resolution for better linkages between agricultural research systems and the farmer. Outlines some objectives to be pursued in accelerating agricultural development. Points out the information needed on agro-climatic conditions, social and cultural characteristics, institutional and infrastructural development programs. Presents strategies for technology development through discussion of the interrelated components of generation, assessment and diffusion. Discusses the role organizations play in the process and the need to identify alternative means of implementation. Concludes with a section on the implications for assistance from donor agencies.
