search through journal, This study evaluated disseminating annual crop variety trial results through supplements in agricultural newspapers. Results indicate that the supplements were a cost-effective method to reach a large percent of the state's farmers with timely information. Two-thirds of the respondents recalled seeing the supplement and nearly all of these read at least part of it. Nearly one-half of those who read the supplement saved it for future reference. Most county extension agricultural agents approve of disseminating this kind of information through supplements. However, some oppose distributing copies of supplements through the extension office when these supplements contain advertising. (original)
