Abstract: | Despite several efforts and programmes by successive governments in Ebonyi State at combating the scourge of poverty in our rural areas, this problem has persisted. This paper examined why farmers in Ezza North local government area in Ebonyi State have not benefited maximally from government intervention programmes. It was discovered that there is the information gap about how farmers and the locals can access farming inputs and imbibe new ways of farming. Agricultural information does not reach the end users. The paper found participatory communication as a veritable tool for transfer of agricultural information to reposition rural farmers to combat the scourge of hunger. |
