"This is an important step to reach a wider audience for the e-learning component of the Pinoy Farmers’ Internet," Open Academy program  director Roger F. Barroga said.


With the stand-alone VClass player and other required software compiled  with the course modules in CD form, extension workers with low-bandwidth — or no Internet connection at all — can view the courses on hybrid rice production.
