The research examined the role of mass media in promoting modern agricultural process in Ife-East. In a country like Nigeria, Malaysia and India, where literacy level is low, the choice of communication media is of vital importance. In this regard the television and radio are significant, as they transfer modern agricultural technology to literate and illiterate farmers alike even in interior areas, within short time to enlighten farmers on the use of various technologies to boost agricultural development.
