This book aims to document the National Policy on Information and Communication Technologies (ICTs) in agricultural extension, including ICT infrastructure and related issues. The book also includes case studies on innovative ICTs for agricultural extension initiatives, such as Village knowledge centers, information kiosks, mobile ICT units, web portals, digital databases, and networks, rural telecenters, farmer call centers, mobile telephony, video conferencing, offline multimedia CDs, decision support systems, expert systems, innovative community radio and television programs, and open distance learning.

This book will be beneficial for agricultural extension students, academicians, scientists, practitioners, administrators, and policy makers, as it provides a framework for the design and implementation of sustainable ICT-enabled extension services for agricultural development. The book compiles the "ICTs for Agricultural Extension: Global Experiments, Innovations, and Experiences" from twenty-eight countries and offers valuable insights for those interested in this field.
