Notes:
Presented at the Association for Education in Journalism and Mass Communication conference in San Antonio, Texas, August 2005.. 27 pages., Research determined the majority of farmers are not using the Iowa State Agriculture Extension website. They reportedly rely on, trust, and spend most of their free time reading farm publications, watching television shows and listening to radio programs about farming, talking to other farmers, and attending seminars or training sessions.
Online via AgEconSearch., Authors evaluated the impact of varietal awareness and nutrition knowledge on their adoption of biofortified crop varieties. Findings suggested that farmers who had knowledge of the nutritional attributes of a specific variety of beans were more likely to adopt them.
