Rural Livelihood Case Studies. Information in rural China - Field Surveys and findings Sitio web de la actividad
Descripción de la actividad:
To strengthen rural market information systems and information management capacity in rural communities, the government of the People's Republic of China has formulated a series of policies in agricultural information services and tried several approaches in developing much needed information services in rural areas. To analyse the experiences and identify the more effective and easy-to-replicate models for use in other regions, FAO collaborated with the Chinese Information Centre of the Ministry of Agriculture to set up a study group to carry out field surveys of the various information services in rural China. This document reports on the findings of the surveys and analyses the differences and similarities between the three main models identified. The impact of rural information services on agricultural production, constraints encountered in promoting and providing information services, and key issues and conclusions are also reported.
