N2 - The Magna Charta of the European University states that the University is a structure that "produces culture through research and education". Unfortunately, if the knowledge produced is not made available and accessible to everyone, produces few benefits. Most of the innovations made in the agricultural sector remain confined to few people. Their diffusion is made accessible only to experts throughout education, seminars, conferences or scientific journals and heading for a format public. Especially those who should benefit most, the “average consumer”, more often remains isolated. For this reason, it should be tried to develop and improve the diffusion path trying to involve the largest number of people not implicated in the sector. One of the channels of information which in recent years is becoming increasingly spread is Internet. His accessibility and ease of use does not discriminate in any way the availability of information. Big potential related to this goal is the E-Learning.
