Although radio is used principally for entertainment in many countries, it also plays a vital role in providing information to rural and farm populations. It is a lifeline to many groups and individuals in developing countries. Early experiments with radio in the U.S. were directed in large part to farm listeners. Subsequently, the U.S. Department of Agriculture developed significant radio services for farmers. Radio has made dramatic contributions to agriculture and farming, including the recognition and support of women in managing and operating farms, and currently includes network services that aid farmers and rural populations all over the world. |
