traditional knowledge, Evans, cited reference, Although has for long been the subject of academic concern, it is only recently that interest has been shown in the possibility of harnessing it for the purpose of development. This paper reviews, a selection of the literature, considers various accounts of the nature of such knowledge can describe some cases, including those -- such as botanical knowledge and awareness of changes in ecosystems in whichITK often has a comparative advantage. The paper considers alternative modes of interaction between such knowledge and organize science in the feasibility and various situations. ITK Suggestions are made about how research can improve our understanding of and in large, it's practical role in development activities.
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.
traditional knowledge, Evans, cited reference, This paper focuses on the environmental knowledge of farming communities in Africa. How can the researcher investigate such knowledge? How could be used in rule development processes? The scope in limitation of farmers, knowledge concerning agricultural pests is illustrated in the case study. The process of knowledge formation is a consequence of the kinds of observation, the former is able to make. Inaccuraacies may stem from observational limitations. On the other hand, the farmers own point of view reflects dimensions of experience of which the research or extension agent may be unaware. These dimensions may be vital to the success or failure of rural development schemes, and should be systematically incorporated into research and development process. This in itself implies new approaches to eliciting information, which hand over the initiative and interviews to respond reportory credit analysis is discussed as an example of a relevant methodology.
traditional knowledge, Evans, cited reference, The body of knowledge, scientific needs used by rule people is well developed, and can make an important contribution to development, but there's a conflict between it and modern knowledge. Modern knowledge is and instrument of power belonging to the technician. By emphasizing the government agents knowledge, development projects devalue traditional rule People's knowledge and the knife and creativity. We need new institutional ways of release in the creative abilities of roll people. In order to achieve a synthesis of traditional and modern knowledge.
traditional knowledge, Evans, cited reference, This article argues that concern with technical knowledge, which is indigenous to disadvantaged rule groups, must go beyond, an interest in extracting fragments of it to make marginal improvements to existing types of R and D project. The main issue must be beats to which such groups are involved in, and have influence upon, the technical change which affects their lives. Arrange a potential uses for indigenous technical knowledge is therefore far wider than those involved in Rand D, and the central concern must be with augmenting the whole spectrum of indigenous capabilities to create, transform and use technical knowledge. This implies there must be a shift from the dominant approach to the rule of technical change, which really seeks to introduce into roll society techniques conceived and developed outside it. Rather, one must seek the technical development of roll society, which enables it more effectively to pursue and control its own path of technical change.

James F. Evans Collection, In: Gajendra Singh, J.H. de Goede, eds. Proceedings of the International Conference on Rural Development Technology : an Integrated Approach, June 21-24, 1977, Bangkok, Thailand. Bangkok, Thailand: Asian Institute of Technology, 1977. p. 35-47., A radical rethinking of how to bring about rural development has been in process over recent years. Many essential elements of what could be called a new approach to development have been identified. The major thesis of this paper is that the nature of this new approach demands a correspondingly new approach to planning for development. Without a new planning system, the changes underlying the new development philosophy are not likely to be implemented. The purpose of this paper is to outline the basic feature of such a planning system, and to indicate how this system is inextricably linked with the hoped for developmental changes. (original).
