Notes:
INTERPAKS, In: M. Drosdoff, ed. World food issues, 2nd ed. Ithaca, NY: Center for the Analysis of World Food Issues, Program in International Agriculture, Cornell University, 1984. p. 65-71., Discusses factors and strategies necessary in developing countries to increase food production by agricultural research and technology transfer. Notes that factors affecting these issues include: (1) available physical and biological resources as they promote or constrain food production (2) the milieu for the initiation, development, testing, and delivery of new and improved technology appropriate to a given environment (local research and extension institutions); (3) government policies relative to incentives for farmers to produce more food; and, (4) existence of regional and international institutions to facilitate the generation and transfer of technology. Strategies identified as appropriate to the transfer of technology are: (1) the indigenous capability to understand the technology to be transferred; (2) adequately trained extension agents; (3) availability of researchers to modify the technology to fit local conditions; (4) ability to generate technology in situ; and (5) on-going farmer training.
