Haroon Sseguya, Robert Mazur, Eric Abbott, Frank B. Matsiko · 2012 · The Journal of Agricultural Education and Extension

Summary. Rural communities in southeast Uganda access agricultural information from multiple sources, but reliability and applicability vary significantly based on trust relationships. Farmers lack capacity to hold information providers accountable for quality. Weak linkages exist among farmers, extension services, private sector, and local leaders. The study recommends establishing feedback loops and partnerships among actors to improve information generation and dissemination for agricultural innovation and rural development.
