Investigation and Analysis of Farmers Demand for Information (2)

Results of Interview Survey on Members of Personal-Computer Club for Farmaers

Abstract

The farmers demands for information was investigated by the interviews on the members of a local personal computer club for famers. The results suggest that the expectations of the farmers for centralized information processing in the Agricultural Information Center is low because the farmers consider that a personal computer is powerful enough to perfom most of the tasks at home. Therfore, it is concluded that the center should function as a information provider rather than the present plans.
