Abstract:

Determining the textbook needs in agricultural teacher education is an issue of interest and importance both to potential authors and publishers in the field. Most publishers require aspiring authors to complete a prospectus describing, with some degree of exactness, the size and nature of the group that would use the proposed text, and the type of course(s) for which it would be adopted. However, little if any current empirical data exists which provides this needed market information. To this end, the present investigation was designed.
