Online via NAFB website. 12 pages., Responses to the 2014 AMR farmer radio listening rating study (33 states) conducted by AMI Ag Media Research, Sioux Falls, South Dakota.
Via ProQuest Historical Newspapers. 1 page., Surveys by county agents suggest that numbers of farms equipped with radios in the U.S. grew from 145,000 in 1923 to 365,000 in 1924 to 550,000 in 1925. Farmers were found to tune in not so much for grand opera or baseball or political speecheds as for weather and market reports.

Notes:
3 pages., Online from publisher., Author addresses "large gap between African extension services ... and the number of farmers being reached." ... "Africa's existing mobile network (currently the second biggest mobile market in the world) could be better utilised to bridge this gap and provide mobile-based agricultural information, advice and support to smallholder farmers."
7 pages., via online journal., Climate services entail providing timely and tailored climate information to
end-users in order to facilitate and improve decision-making processes.
Climate services are instrumental in socio-economic development and
benefit substantially from interdisciplinary collaborations, particularly
when including Early Career Researchers (ECRs). This commentary
critically discusses deliberations from an interdisciplinary workshop
involving ECRs from the United Kingdom and South Africa in 2017, to
discuss issues in climate adaptation and climate services development in
water resources, food security and agriculture. Outcomes from the
discussions revolved around key issues somewhat marginalized within
the broader climate service discourse. This commentary discusses what
constitutes “effective” communication, framings (user framings, mental
models, narratives, co-production) and ethical dimensions in developing
climate services that can best serve end-users. It also reflects on how
ECRs can help tackle these important thematic areas and advance the
discourse on climate services.
