The radio station provides farmers with agricultural information, helping them make timely and informed decisions. Moreover, radio is a gadget that they can easily use and operate. The institutionalization of Krishi Radio as a government-run initiative and its function as a primary communication tool of multiple organizations in Bangladesh make it a sustainable and reliable information tool for Bangladeshi farmers.
