papers move beyond the questions of who adopts technologies to ask how preferences for characteristics (of maize in Mexico or cattle in Burkina Faso) affect adoption and how technical change differentially affects semi-subsistence farmers and how it affects productivity and yield variability.

Paper presented at the 1987 Summer Meeting of the American Society of Agricultural Engineers; 1987 June 28 - July 1; Baltimore Convention Center, Baltimore, MD; AGRICOLA IND 88026415, St. Joseph, MI : The American Society of Agricultural Engineers, 1987. 11 p. (American Society of Agricultural Engineers Microfiche Collection. Paper no. 87-5015), Producing top quality educational videotapes for "mass marketing" to a regional audience requires good organization, cooperative authors, broadcast quality equipment and experienced technical assistants. Four segments, totaling 82 minutes, of a planned 9-segment series on conservation tillage took 11 days for field shots on 20 farms in 11 counties, about 450 minutes of original footage, and more than 100 hours for editing.
