Communicating from the Farm

This is a survey from UF/IFAS about the need for communication and the tools used to do it for ag producers in an increasingly urban environment. UF wants to know how to help out. Please read the following and participate in the survey.

As the rural-urban interface becomes less distinct we would like to know what kind of communication tools you as agricultural producers need to educate your neighbors and the school children in your community about agricultural practices in their community. We can only do this if we know current practices. How do you communicate with your neighbors? Let us know by completing this survey that is being conducted by the University of Florida IFAS Extension in partnership with Florida Farm Bureau. Based on the survey we will be designing a Good Neighbor Program (GNP) that will help people living in urban-rural interface communities understand more about the importance of agricultural practices. We are also asking School Systems to complete a survey asking how they communicate with you. Please share your communication practices with us and we will use them as part of the new Good Neighbor Program. The survey will take 5 to 10 minutes to complete and we will only use your answers after they have been combined with other respondents' answers and will be completely confidential. Thank you for participating.Email Survey Link: https://www.surveymonkey.com/s/5B2MPY9If you have any questions, please call (352) 273-3971, or send an email to FOI@ufl.edu.
