Notes:
"The Farm Journalist"series via online. 2 pages., Discusses agricultural journalists' use of new information technologies. "The challenge is not that of attempting to use all available technology but of selecting those parts offering the highest probability of working best for us."
Online from https://doaj.org, Authors examined extension professionals, county agricultural commissioners, and members of farm bureaus and producer groups regarding their behavior and attitudes about use of information and communication technologies (ITCs). Results indicated that extension professionals experienced challenges in using ICTs more than the other sustainable agriculture stakeholders, "creating a technology gap between extension professionals and their clientele." Authors suggested use of an ICT community of practice and clear organizational guidelines for measuring and reporting performance related to ICT.
