Bridging the gap between research and extension
Scientists generate new technology and this is disseminated to farmers through the process known as technology transfer, thus promoting worldwide agricultural development. Building effective links between scientists, technology transfer workers and farmers is vital to the process of development, and is one of the most widely debated issues in agriculture today. David Kaimowitz, a research fellow at the International Service for National Agricultural Research (ISNAR) in the Netherlands, has edited Making the Link .Agricultural Research and Technology Transfer in Developing Countries. The book assembles the views of 11 specialists in various fields, offering a multidisciplinary evaluation and insight. The volume, which includes bibliographical references, will find readers among agricultural scientists and technology transfer workers, managers of agricultural research and extension organizations, policy makers concerned with public administration and scholars interested in these issues.
