Suggests that relatively little agricultural communications research is carried out because administrators direct most available funds to other areas of agricultural research (e.g., pigs).

The emphasis on information needs of farmers is on "why," "who," "where," and "how" to obtain information. In order to understand the information needs of their client, librarians' and information specialists trainig and ecuation should be reoriented to include coursed on agricultural escienes, rural sociolgoy, adult education and computer sciences.

Introduction: "Extension editors are outgrowing their title. An individual in information work for the Agricultural Extension Service today must be more than an editor; more than a radio or news man; more than a teacher; more than an experienced specialist or agent who knows how to write and speak through mass media. If we in agricultural extension information are to realize the full potential of our work, we must develop a new profession."
