Research on the diffusion of agricultural innovations in the United States and the Netherlands
The purpose of the present paper is to provide a comparative analysis of two sub-traditions within rural sociology, the research on diffusion that has occurred (1) in the United States, and (2) in the Netherlands. Emphasis will be placed upon the historical development of the field in both countries and upon the differences in research methods. Somewhat greater attention is given to Netherlands' research which is relatively unknown outside that country, because of language barriers.
