Abstract

[fre] Si l'information est de plus en plus abondante, sa diffusion, spécialement dans le domaine des innovations techniques, pose des problèmes particuliers. L'agriculteur a besoin schématiquement de trois types d'information : une information générale, une information technique et économique, une information de synthèse. . Cette information est fournie à l'agriculteur par deux canaux de diffusion : sous forme écrite grâce aux services spécialisés et aux brochures ; sous forme orale : journées et , mais aussi radio, télévision, cinéma. Ces diverses formes de diffusion sont encore peu utilisées, et pourtant elles joueront un rôle important dans l'avenir. . Certains obstacles rencontrés par la diffusion de l'information sont particuliers au milieu agricole! : atomicité des entreprises, peur de l'innovation et résistance au changement liées le plus souvent à l'âge moyen élevé des agriculteurs, mais surtout formation insuffisante des agriculteurs. . Devant ces difficultés, il semblerait opportun : . — de clarifier et expliciter les responsabilités de chacun en matière de diffusion de l'information, . — de regrouper les informations en vue d'une diffusion ordonnée, . — de créer un groupe de réflexion sur ce problème pour dégager les orientations à prendre. [eng] The Spreading of Technical Innovations - Although information is plentiful, its spreading, especially in the field of technical innovations is difficult. Schematically, the farmer needs three kinds of information : general information, economic and technical information and synthesis information. . This information is supplied through two different means : written information, through booklets etc. and oral information through conferences, radio, television and cinema. The latter means has not been used much as yet though it will be very important in the future. . Some obstacles to the spreading of information are peculiar to the farm sector : atomicity of firms, fear for innovations and resistance to change, mostly due to the high average age of the farmers but also to unsufficient education. . To overcome these difficulties, it would be useful to clarify the responsabilities of the parties concerned as for the spreading of information, to reorganize and coordinate this spreading and to create a committee on this problem in order to define the directions to follow.
