James F. Evans Collection, An understanding of maize growing practices was the most important of the various human factors affecting adoption of practices as recommended in a diffusion study in developing areas of Southern Africa. Availability of financial and human resources as well as innovativeness in turn, affected yield per hectare. Less than half of the farmers who adopted practices were implementing them according to recommendations and many did not have a clear concept that the practices were inter-related. There is a need to upgrade extension services and offer alternative technology packages in Farmer Support Programmes, as well as to improve the integration of research, technology development, extension and farmers.
