Identifies the major components of various extension approaches and describes a process to strengthen the linkages between agricultural research and farmers who are the target audience as well as the basic building block of all farming systems. Concludes with several suggestions of ways to improve existing extension systems.

INTERPAKS, Mimeographed, 1981. Paper presented at Workshop on Linkages between Agricultural Research and Farmers in Developing Countries, Paris, France, May 13-14, 1981. 6 p., Describes a project aimed at integrating pastoral societies into a modern production economy. The method used was aimed at constant information and consultation with the breeders concerned. An interdisciplinary team of investigators/advisors visited the area concerned. Continuous participation of breeders was sought, taking into account their views and concerns. Special broadcasts on the national radio were used to inform breeders about modernization projects in the pastoral area.

INTERPAKS, Washington, DC: International Food Policy Research Institute, 1981. (Paper prepared as working document no. 9 for the Workshop on Linkages Between Agricultural Research on Farmers in Developing Countries, 13th-14th May 1981, Paris, France, sponsored by the Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development.) 41 p., Notes the distressing downward trend in developing countries, particularly in Latin America, in the number of scientists trained in agricultural research. Points out the urgency for the training of scientists particularly at the higher levels. Extension poses different problems as there is no comprehensive study of extension services in developing countries and the resources allocated to them. Suggests that a further comparative analysis and evaluation of the costs, returns, manpower, equipment and training requirements of alternative approaches and systems of transferring research results to farmers would be worthwhile. Concludes with a section on types of action that might be taken to economize on recurrent costs. Includes several tables in the annex such as research expenditures for 65 countries, 1975 and 1990; research and development expenditures as a percent of GNP and ratio of technicians to scientists and engineers; staffs and expenditures for agricultural research and extension systems in 36 low-income countries; regional education and training costs for research and extension services; and limitations on ability to finance recurrent expenditures.

Notes:
INTERPAKS, In: Management of transfer of farm technology, Hyderabad, India: National Institute of Rural Development, 1981. p. 106-116., Gives several illustrations to lend authenticity to the big and small in agriculture technology development and transfer. A key factor in transferring technology to, and evolving a comprehensive policy for India's agricultural sector is that agriculture is privately owned on the one hand and a state subject on the other. Transfer of technology is a good deal less simplistic than the generation and dissemination explanation. Several linkages at different levels are implied. Suggests areas for improvement in extension such as better use of available media for group or mass communication, training of functionaries, the need to reach women and youth, and a more democratic administration. The author sees a definite link between individual farmers and the groups they constitute, particularly in the area of agricultural practices. Concludes by calling for application of 'extension technology' to realize the potential of the extension system.

Notes:
INTERPAKS, Mimeographed, 1981. Paper prepared for the Development Studies Association Annual Conference, September 10-12, 1981. 9 p., Briefly examines the relation between agricultural extension innovation and social change. Discusses the importance of extension organizations listening to their clients more carefully. Notes the difficulty and complexity of identifying induced change or 'development'. Illustrates the effect social change may have on extension-related development work. Cases include sale of cocoa by New Guinea growers involving kinship systems and changing concept of inheritance and the effect of access to new irrigation systems on social change in two south Indian villages.

[Establishing a two-way flow of information between farmer and researcher in connection with surveys on the breeding of small ruminants in the northern part of Upper Volta.], INTERPAKS, Paris, France: Institut d'Elevage et de Medecine Veterinaire de Pays Tropicaux, 1981. (Paper prepared as working document no. 4 for the Workshop on Linkages Between Agricultural Research and Farmers in Developing Countries, May 13-14, 1981, Paris, France, sponsored by the Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development.) 4 p., Describes the development of a methodology for establishing a two-way flow of information between small farmers and researchers, mainly to communicate to researchers the farmers' needs and requests. The approach uses investigators, many from the health services, who were given one week's prior training by the researchers. The researchers periodically checked the information collected by joining them on field trips. The data collected were processed by computer. The resulting system insured two-way flow of information linking local staff and researchers with regular transfer of information. Includes the complete questionnaire used in the project.

search through journal, CGIAR - the Consultative Group on International Agricultural Research, established in 1971 - is a consortium of international, national and private agencies, through which 13 international agricultural research centres and related institutions are funded. The emphasis, clearly, is on the word "international", and the centres specialise in work which needs the facilities that can best be provided by large, well equipped, international institutions - although the results of their work reach farmers through national sources. At the time of the groups' tenth anniversary, Professor Bunting considers its history and structure and assesses its achievements, its problems and its prospects.

James F. Evans Collection, This article surveys the theoretical and empirical literature on the economics of advertising during the last decade. The survey notes several promising advances in theoretical modeling of the role of advertising in consumer choice and social welfare. Numerous empirical investigations of food and other consumer products have established relationships between advertising and market structure or performance indicators. Less progress was found on selected socioeconomic advertising issues that are difficult for traditional economics to handle. (original)
