AB - The purpose of this study is to explore the digital divide that appears in the mobile Internet use by farmers and fishers. To this end, we first analyzed the impact of farmers and fishers' attitudes toward technology, material access, and skills on the use of mobile social media. In addition, the digital divide was identified according to the population, socioeconomic factors among farmers and fishers, and the divide and the cause of the mobile Internet use among both part- and full-time farmers and fishers were analyzed. As a result of empirical analysis using the <2018 Report on the Digital Divide>, attitudes, material access, and content-related skills had a significant effect on the use of mobile social media. Also, the digital divide was found in different age groups and residential regions. There was also a significant difference in the use of mobile social media between part- and fulltime farmers and fishers, and this divide was caused by attitudes toward new technologies. Based on these results, this study presented policy implications such as the need for education on informatization for farmers and fishers, support for underdeveloped rural communities, and technical support for full-time farmers and fishers in order to bridge the digital divide.
