Farming systems research to improve the livelihood of small farmers
1978
Norman, D.W.
Extract: The farming systems research approach is consistent with current notions of rural and economic development as articulated in equitability, local participation, and employment generation. As yet, however, perhaps mainly because it is largely in the developmental stage, the farming systems research process has not been firmly established as an efficient way to improve the livelihood of the majority of small farmers. I believe that the future in theLDCs is now more promising than previously, in that we in the high income countries are at least shedding some of our cultural arrogance. To paraphrase the words of a wise Islamic scholar, Alhaji Junaidu, sound development must build upon rather than destroy the farmers' traditional techniques.
