Survey data How can you know your audience? You have to ask them. Surveys help. We at Truffle regularly ask our audience various questions throughout the year. With respect to new and social media, here are some things we have observed: across beef, dairy, poultry, swine, and crop farmers, 30% spent at least 10% of their week reading watching, or listening to industry information. 50% spent 20% or more of their week reading, watching, or listening to industry information. Reading was the preferred method of understanding information. Monday, August 6, 12 43
Survey data In a survey conducted Q2 2011, 87% of Swine producers listed email as their most valuable communications tool today, with newsletters and magazine at 39% and 25%. When asked what they believed the most valuable communications tool will be in the next several years, email still was at top, but web sites, social media, and smart phones passed newsletters and magazines. Monday, August 6, 12 44
Survey data In a 2011 ag focused social media survey conducted by Meghan Cline, graduate student at Oklahoma State University, 83% of respondents (farmers and ranchers) sought out people to follow on twitter based mainly on the usefulness of the tweets posted and then on the identity of the tweeter. 65% trusted information from individuals just as much as information from professional organizations. 84% used twitter to mainly find out about news and events.
