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.

Francis C. Byrnes Collection, 26 p., Bibliography containing basic information on more than 50 of the most effective case studies on rural development management issues.
INTERPAKS; see also C07214, Aims to show that it can be of great advantage to the design of a rural development project if the cognitive strategies which lie behind farmers' decisions to adopt new technology are understood. This is done by using a case study of an agronomic recommendation of the Plan Puebla in Mexico which did not diffuse. Of the 1973-4 recommendations, the one to increase the number and change the timing of fertilizer applications was the non-adopted recommendation. The theory of choice used in this study assumes that people choosing between two alternatives do not make complex calculation of the overall worth or utility of each alternative. Instead people tend to use procedures which simplify their decision making calculations.
traditional knowledge, Evans, cited reference, Although inter-cropping (IC) is widely practiced in rank that practical small -- scale agricultural and agricultural research scientist have not systematically explored. The rationale for and have rarely attempted to improve it. Instead, they have concentrated on planting crops computer stands an extension advice has been to replace. IC with peer strands. This has reduced the impact of the research and extension activities. A review of East Africa experience from the 1930s, considers reasons for the research concentration on Pier stand planting and reveals two phases one formal experiments on IC were carried out. Despite generally favorable results, neither of these lead to, including IC an extension, advised to farmers. IC can contribute to one more of five, and objectives of small-scale farmers, but the standard design of agronomic experiments at best of takes account of only one of these, so that benefits are underestimated the erroneous policy conclusions drawn the paper advocates, enter alia, bolted disciplinary research for small-scale agriculture and active participation by farmers themselves.

Table of contents only, Paris : UNESCO, 1977, In its programme for the development of communication systems, UNESCO has long been concerned with the role that the media can play in rural areas. The present study is intended to help specialists working in rural communication programmes by seeking to draw from the results of research principles which can serve as guides to more effective programme designs.

It was essential to prime the pumps, so that self-sustaining local action could be generated. The importance of top-down communication should not be underestimated. It was necessary to start the engine of local initiative and action. Once local participation was initiated, open communication in all directions is necessary to strengthen and maintain it."
