An educational computer-based multimedia system for enhancing crop yield through improved potato planting

A multimedia software package was developed to present appropriate potato planting techniques necessary to increase crop yields. Resource material used included research and extension articles, video and photographs. Topics discussed are seed storage, seed cutting, planter management, plant spacing, and plant development. The intended audience for the software package includes extension staff and potato growers. The authoring software used for the development of the program was Toolbox, supported by several other software programs. The presentation runs on an IBM compatible 486 PC under MS-Windows.
