Notes:
Pages 57-63 in V.S. Gupta, Rural press: problems and prospects. Press Institute of India, New Delhi. 78 pages., Reports that there are about 250 farm periodicals published in India, of which about 190 are in Hindi and other regional languages. 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."
