Integrating Low-cost Video into Agricultural Development Projects: A Toolkit for Practitioners

This toolkit is designed to help these projects and organizations use low-cost video to augment the traditional agricultural extension services they are providing. It is important to stress that this toolkit does not assume that video media is the most appropriate solution for disseminating agricultural information. Rather, given its growing accessibility due to the increasing availability of low-cost digital video cameras and editing software — and the increasing use of video media in donor-funded agricultural development projects — this toolkit aims to enable practitioners to develop a more systematic approach to using low-cost video as one of the mediums through which they share information with farmers.
