AGRICOLA IND 89053984, This article describes a proposal by the authors that the distinction between interpersonal and mass media communication has had detrimental effects on the progress of communication theory and research. First, the conceptual boundaries between these two types of communication is discussed. Next, the political and historical reasons for the distinction are described. The authors provide evidence for this separation by citing studies which examine the degree to which researchers in the two areas cite each others' works in research publications. Finally, the consequences of this distinction are presented. Included in this section is a table listing the main characteristics of interpersonal, interactive, and mass media communication.

AGRICOLA IND 89051564, This study is part of a larger study which examined the development of leadership knowledge and awareness in rural communities. This part of the study focused on what adults learn through participation in community groups. The subjects of this study were 10 members of community groups located in rural counties. All subjects participated in an open-ended, semi-structured interview. Transcripts were analyzed for statements of learning. A total of 259 learning statements in eight categories were identified. The categories are self, internal knowledge, internal skills, external knowledge, external skills, broader skills, special groups and issues, and learning about the learning process. The authors also discuss factors related to learning, including: social factors, local control, democratic procedures, and satisfaction.

AGRICOLA IND 89051563, The research presented in this article examined life satisfaction and volunteer activity satisfaction in retired professionals who volunteered. The authors looked at four areas: 1) how life satisfaction and volunteer action changes as volunteers' self perceived effectiveness and opportunities for formal demonstration of competencies increases; 2) how satisfaction with the activity changes as volunteers' self-perceived effectiveness and opportunities for formal demonstration of competencies increases; 3) how life satisfaction and voluntary action change as satisfaction with the specific activity increases; and 4) how the reasons for participation affect the first three relationships. This article reports the findings from two questionnaires given to 39 volunteers at the beginning and end of a six month project. The scales used measured: self-esteem, morale, reactions to the project, social alienation, voluntary action, reasons for volunteering, and motivation. The authors found that these volunteers' perceived effectiveness was associated with increased program satisfaction, and that reasons for involvement create variation in implications for voluntary action.

Notes:
This paper originally published in Dellere, R. and Symoens, J.J., eds. Proceedings of the Seminar "Food and Nutritional Strategies : Concepts - Objectives - Application"; 1986 November 3-7; Brussels, Belgium. Brussels, Belgium : Technical Centre for Agricultural and Rural Co-operation and Royal Academy of Overseas Sciences, 1986. p. 335 355, The Hague, Netherlands : International Service for National Agricultural Research, 1988. 15 p. (ISNAR Reprint Series No. 4), The population pressures of the 1960s were basically responsible for major policy decisions to give a new direction to world agriculture, which had evolved for most of its 10,000 years around traditional practices. It was decided during this period to mobilize science and technology to transform this kind of agriculture into highly productive systems of farming. The concept of genotype-environment interactions was used to synthesize crop varieties which would take full advantage of improved levels of agronomic management. The newly discovered plant-type genes in wheat and rice have been extensively used in the process of genetic reconstruction of traditional cultivars of these crops which had been bred more for adaption to stress environments than for high grain yields. Many developing countries took bold policy decisions to reorganize and strengthen their agricultural research services in pursuance of these objectives. The new agricultural technology developed in this way has already made a significant impact on food production in some of these countries, more particularly in Asia and Latin America. The impact has been much less in Africa, where the national agricultural research systems are in an early stage of evolution following their colonial history. It has been argued that the problems of agricultural production in Sub-Saharan Africa are only quantitatively, not qualitatively, different from those of developing countries in other parts of the world. Africa also offers considerable potential for significant advances in agricultural production through the application of the new technology, and this must be the approach in the short term. In the long term, however, the problem of agricultural production in Africa will require a different kind of production technology for its relatively large areas of lands characterized by moisture and fertility stress. This new technology must be based on efficient techniques of soil and water management, with the agronomists playing a key role supported by soil scientists, water technologists, plant breeders and scientists from other disciplines. The multidisciplinary approach becomes particularly important in this context. This paper concludes with a brief discussion of ISNAR/s collaborative work during the past 6 years with a number of Sub-Saharan African countries to strengthen the organization and management of their agricultural research services.

Paper presented at the "Meeting on Environmental Legislation and its Effects on Weed Science," 1988 January 18-20; Tulsa, OK; AGRICOLA IND 89009907., Georgia peanut farmers worried about the EPA's decision to suspend dinoseb, a herbicide that farmers used for the past 40 years. Farmers were critical of a task force's recommendation to ask for an emergency exemption -- Section 18 -- for Gramoxone, instead of fighting for dinoseb. The paper presents a case study of how weed specialists with the Georgia Extension Service worked with the state's news organizations through Extension Service editors to produce stories about their decision, including before and after stories with a farmer who feared that his peanuts were killed by Gramoxone. The case points out how a close working relationship between weed specialists and news editors can enhance educational efforts on a sensitive issue.

Paper presented at the Second Annual Technical Communication Conference; 1988 October 15; St Louis, MO., Introduction of desktop publishing (DTP) technology into our full-service communications office has presented a number of new management problems as traditional roles and the working relationship between designers and editors are being redefined. This paper (1) examines that relationship; (2) identifies some of those problems; (3) discusses the steps we've taken to manage the application of DTP to a variety of projects - from simple brochures, newsletters, and fact sheets to larger, more complex publications that traditionally were typeset; and (4) identifies areas of ongoing concern as we look back on our less-than-idyllic honeymoon period and attempt to renegotiate terms for happily continuing the partnership between editor and designer.

A farm-household economics approach is used to illuminate Mellor's labour constraint/rapid urbanization problem in the Southern African context. It is viewed as a rational decision by rural households to combine the benefits of indigenous land-use arrangements with the advantages of non-farm wage employment. The implications of this analysis for the design of technology consistent with the objectives and constraints of farm households are then discussed in relation to some general experiences in Southern Africa. (original)
In this paper, the author points out that although by-passed by international development assistance in many parts of the world, women have been providing skill and labor for agricultural production, as well as subsistence of food, water and firewood for their families. Some of the assumptions which have contributed to the marginal attention to women as agriculturalists in international development assistance programs are reviewed. Factors contributing to these assumptions, examples of achievements in development projects and persistent problems are discussed. Some issues which continue to challenge national policy makers in developing countries as well as donors are identified. The author notes that while various donors and organizations address bits and pieces of the issues intermittently, a systematic, organized and universally shared approach to the issues, within a nation state or on a global basis is lacking. She concludes that just as agricultural production inputs and information need to be modified to fit the unique constraints of any ecological niche, similarly, modifications must be made in development assistance programs to fit the specific needs of women in their agricultural roles and cultural settings.
