Pages 57-63 in V.S. Gupta, Rural press: problems and prospects.

About 8,000 small newspapers operating in and for the countryside. "Although there are 21 agricultural universities and 33 research institutes of the ICAR, there seems to be a near absence of concern for using farm periodicals as media for transfer for technology."
