Abstract: Thirteen weekly programs on futures markets were taught to farmers using television as a delivery system. Agricultural economists were responsible for technical accuracy, while professional writers and announcers were responsible for communicating ideas. Five thousand individuals pre-enrolled in the series. One third of the enrollees watched nine or more programs.
