Access to agricultural extension services by smallholder farmers helps them learn and apply improved and efficient agronomic practices that contribute to increased farm productivity. The ICT platform provides customized advisory information to farmers and allows direct interaction and personalized discussions around farm issues with the Field Agent. Farm Radio International (FRI) radio programming broadcasts expand access to extension content via the creation of listening groups. Combining radio and other ICT peripherals to deliver e-extension in this project was a potent combination that can be replicated.
