INTERPAKS, In: D.F. Cusack, ed. Agroclimate information for development : reviving the Green Revolution. Boulder, CO: Westview Press, 1983. p. 313-329., Addresses the challenges of the information revolution with particular emphasis on using agroclimate information for agricultural development: 1) how to sort out and organize the information already available; 2) how to identify and collect the right kinds of information; 3) how to absorb, analyze, and interpret the information; and 4) how to put it to work for the benefit of humankind. Presents a model of process approach by which agroclimate information may be transferred to benefit agricultural development.

The need to preserve "local knowledge" to let the system evolve and to introduce the technology that matches the physical and intellectural capabilities of the target group is expressed. The appropriate media to transfer the technology is presented in light of the geographic terrain of the target groups.
