Farmer participatory research (FPR) in conducted to complement conventional research approaches with two major objectives in mind: to increase the efficiency of developing and testing alternative technologies with subsequent improvement of production systems; and to improve the adaptive research capacity of the farmers. The relative amount of empasis placed on theses objectives needs consideration as it relates to how the FPR can best be structured.
