    Notes:
    7 p., The increasing use of computers on the farm raises the question of whether these new skills will be valued in off-farm employment. Data suggests that computers are used predominantly for a single group of tasks that may not develop the "systems skills" that are becoming increasingly important in off-farm employment.

    Notes:
    James F. Evans Collection; See C06647 for original, Avocado producer households were headed by reasonably well educated males, mainly in the productive age groups, two thirds of whom were in employment, with above average rural household incomes. The adoption of critical avocado growing cultural and management practices, as well as knowledge levels of avocado growing were considerably below optimum. There was inadequate contact with research based information sources. Suggestions are made for improving the producer knowledge base by improved communication and extension strategies reinforced by other institutional support (original).
