"While the net may provide a new medium for dissent and opposition, its impact is offset by two principal factors." Factors cited include the digital divide and growing commercialism.
Findings prompt researchers to recommend the use of information and communications technologies with conventional approaches in conservation agriculture knowledge networks.

2013 Report
Notes:
173 pages., The synthesis report by FAO’s Monitoring African Food and Agricultural Policies (MAFAP) team, is the first ever attempt to systematically analyze agriculture and food security policies in several African countries, using common methodology over years. The report found that in the period between 2005 and 2010, the policy environment and performance of domestic markets depressed producer prices in the ten African countries analyzed, though the trend is improving. Most governments resorted to m arket and trade policies to protect consumers and keep food prices down in the reference period whilst budgetary transfers, were mainly been used to support producers. The report concludes that producer prices would improve significantly if inefficiencies in domestic value chains were eliminated through better targeted policies. These inefficiencies however seem to be increasing in all ten countries surveyed. The current MAFAP partner countries are: Burkina Faso, Ethiopia, Ghana, Kenya, Mala wi, Mali, Mozambique, Nigeria, Tanzania and Uganda.

14 pages, Price dispersion across markets is common in developing countries. Using novel market and trader-level data, this paper provides estimates of the impact of mobile phones on price dispersion across grain markets in Niger. The introduction of mobile phone service between 2001 and 2006 explains a 10 to 16 percent reduction in grain price dispersion. The effect is stronger for market pairs with higher transport costs.

Abstract online via Ebscohost., Authors analyze 490 television news broadcasts featuring Brattany's "green algae" between 1986 and 2015. "The problem has evolved over the past thirty years. It was first depicted as a hindrance to tourism due to urban pollution. It then was classified as an ecological disaster caused by agricultural productivism. Finally, it is currently considered a possible launch pad for sustainable development projects at the territorial level. The media have shaken up the region's political agenda and in so doing, they have hastened the reassessment of the 'Breton agricultural model'."
