Abstract

The aim of article is to show the links between websites of entities that are important from the perspective of providing information and knowledge to farmers. Based on the analysis of hyper-links we determined the relationships between analysed websites. Assuming that the hyper-links contained in the websites are intended to refer the reader / user to another site as containing content relevant and related websites, we can determine if the institutions / entities operate in a network (allowing quick access to complementary information). Based on research we could distinguish several important aspects of links between the analysed websites. Firstly, the website of the Ministry of Agriculture and Rural Development is the main hub. Secondly, there are stronger links within the same types of institutions than between different categories of websites.
