Cyber Extension for Rural Development
Journal Title: International Journal of Research in Agricultural Sciences - Year 2018, Vol 5, Issue 4
Abstract
The educational background of a young generation of farmers is significant as they need to have higher ability to access more complicated extension service methods. In regard to new extension challenges, the development and utilization of information and communication technologies (ICTs) for agricultural extension has become a promising future strategy. ICTs in some cases could guarantee high speed and effectiveness of information distribution for new technologies and innovations. In practice, cyber extension is the utilization of online networking, computer and digital interactive multimedia to facilitate the dissemination of agricultural technology.
