Results of a study examining the regional reach of information for tree crop farmers in a six-county area questioned the traditional emphasis on pest control advisors and private consultants as an effective way to distribute information widely. Farmer responses to this survey identified farm advisors as more useful information sources. Authors also encouraged agricultural educators to learn more about how farmers gather information and what influences their adoption of new practices.
Findings prompt researchers to recommend the use of information and communications technologies with conventional approaches in conservation agriculture knowledge networks.
Online via the University of Illinois Online Catalog, using the Article search term, "demonstrations", This study involved determining preferences of researchers and producers regarding their preferences for providing and gathering information. Findings revealed and described differences in preference. Authors identified on-farm demonstrations as particularly important for technologies that involve major transitions in farming methods.
