Aina, L.O. (University of Ibadan, Ibadan (Nigeria). Departement of Library Studies)
A survey was carried out on the agricultural information needs of farmers in 6 villages in Nigeria. Most of the farmers were aged 36 years or older and most of them were part-time farmers. They required information on a wide range of subjects, but all were concerned with ways of increasing production. Information on fertilizers and pest and disease control was particularly important. The farmers made little effort themselves to obtain the required information and very few visited agricultural institutions in search of information. It was decided that libraries should be established in rural areas so as to meet the needs of farmers
