It is argued that technological packages alone cannot result into meaningfUl increase in agricultural productivity. There is a need to strengthen linkages among researchers, farmers and extension service in order to bring about effective dissemination of the intended technologies. Concerted efforts are needed on the part of the many actors influencing management and use of land resources. One of the challenges is to reduce the barriers facing agricultural development, which often arise from inadequate policy and coordination among key actors. National and grass root strategies are needed to provide a common framework and plan for sustainable use of land resources by pulling together efforts of various actors.
