The advisory sector is one of the best ways to convey information to farmers and enables their successful adoption. The consultants implement very successfully applied researches that provide insight into new production technologies (cultivation system, assortment, agro – and auxiliary techniques) and on that way raise the level of efficiency. The development of information and communication technologies (ICT) that we have witnessed in recent years is undoubtedly an opportunity to transform the way of agricultural production. The purpose of the Erasmus + VIRAL project (Vitalization of the importance of ICT in agricultural knowledge) is to explore the attitudes of farmers in Bosnia and Herzegovina, Montenegro, Romania, the Netherlands and Slovenia on the ICT role in agriculture. What is the level of ICT presence in the work of consultants, how they are used in working with agricultural producers, what are the real needs for improving work in the coming period and how it is possible to raise the level of use, are just some of the questions in this questionnaire. The answers should provide a basis for defining recommendations for improving the use of ICT in the work of the advisory sector and thus contribute to their greater efficiency in the coming period.
A questionnaire for consultants is on the link.
