cited reference, The Department of Agriculture, Victoria, ran a talk-back programme, "Phone the Farm Panel", over radio station 3GL, Geelong, between April 1971 and August 1972. The station's receiving area corresponds closely with the Department's Port Philip extension district, The experience suggested that urban listeners participate in such programmes more than do rural ones, and women more than men, which may be explained by the differing nature of their occupations. The exercise gave the extension officers involved valuable publicity and experience.
UI electronic subscription, Author analyzes the history, methods and impact of a radio program, "We say what we think," produced by a group of Dane County rural women during this period. Offers perspectives on how the Extension Service encouraged domesticity as the role of rural women. "Linking domesticity to the trope of progress in this way kept rural women from discussing the changes taking place around them." Author also comments on marginalization of rural sociology as a discipline in the academy.
Via ProQuest Historical Newspapers. 1 page., "Educational programs of the Department of Agriculture were carried to millions of farm listeners in their homes during the last year by 149 broadcasting stations cooperating with the department. The stations devoted in the aggregate more than 1,000 hours each month to broadcasting information from the department."
