“…Through the use of ICTs, industrialists can generate novel possibilities by all-pervading the international market and get contact with new partners, and exchange relevant information for their business sustainability. Moreover, industrialists can establish public-private firms globally that lead to viable self-reliance (Kale et al, [10]; Pande and Deshmukh, [16]; Ramli et al, [17]; Singh et al, [19]). Equally, Munyua and Adera [12] discovered that contemporary ICTs can enhance agrarian production by communicating knowledge and information to rustic agricultural communities.…”

Agricultural science performs a substantial function in monetary and societal growth in nearly all developing nations. Data on satisfactory excellence is an indispensable criterion for the development of all fields of farming. By means of the speedy growth of Information Technologies (ITs), data and information can be efficiently produced, warehoused, scrutinized, distributed, and utilized to reinforce agriculturalists and agricultural societies to enhance agricultural output and sustainability. Information facilities for agriculturalists at the nationwide and provincial levels are an auspicious novel field of investigation and presentation in the evolving field of e-agriculture. This paper aims to address the challenges associated with the dissemination of localized agricultural information to farmers within a localized region in Nigeria using mobile networks and explicitly examined the application of Information and Communication Technologies (ICTs) in disseminating agricultural information to farmers in Nigeria. Based on the findings of this study, it is recommended that the government should establish information centers with up-to-date information technology infrastructures and mini-community libraries in all rustic regions in Nigeria where modern agricultural information can be easily obtained by the farmers.

“…KM is getting the correct information before the right individuals at the ideal time [13]. ICT have assumed the key part in the process of agrarian KM particularly in extension service delivery [14] and have demonstrated its value through the diverse small scale projects [12] that utilizes different strategies and procedures. ICT improves knowledge sharing by bringing down temporal [15]- [17] and spatial hindrances between knowledge specialists [15] and enhances access to information about knowledge [15], [16].…”

“…KS is the urgent action of successful KM [13] that support the process through which explicit or tacit knowledge is imparted to different people through a KSS utilized by communities of practice [20]. It has socialization and exchange as its sub processes [20]; has key drivers of interest in sharing information [12] and financial rewards [21], [22]; and has significant barriers of lack of trust and lack of time [22]. Amongst the illustrative KSS includes but not limited to video conferencing, electronic discussion groups, e-mail, team collaboration tools and web-based access to knowledge repositories [20].…”

Agriculture is the world's major industry with 60% of the global population depending on it. Being the major source of livelihood, agriculture is challenged by issues such as food shortage, food security problems, climate change affecting crop yield, land degradation, decrease of crop varieties and others. There is a huge amount of knowledge products generated by the government agencies, local universities, private civic groups, local government units and non-government organizations (NGOs) to address these issues however the information has difficulty reaching the intended farm practitioners as end-user. With this aforesaid challenge, a technology based information sharing and access among stakeholders such as agricultural knowledge experts (academe) and knowledge end-users (farmers) is a dire need. Information and Communications Technology (ICT) has always been an indispensable tool that can provide an environment where knowledge generators and knowledge users can use to exchange information any time and place. Retooling and scaling up the process how information and knowledge products is being accessed and shared is indeed a critical consideration. Using descriptive research and qualitative approach, this study determined an ICT tool, a managed SMS-based system to be highly acceptable to the identified stakeholders as an information sharing medium and model and is therefore recommended for use. The result of this research shall serve as an implementation guide for government, non-government organizations(NGOs), extension service providers, system integrators, researchers, and other related groups offering or planning to engage in similar service.
