Technology Development Assistance for Agriculture

Putting research into use in low income countries

Beschreibung

Stemming from an 11-year DFID funded programme under its Renewable Natural Resources Research Strategy (RNRRS), this book reviews part of this programme as a case study of a broader issue of technology development for Africa. Controversially, it critiques current international technology development assistance, and focuses on the potential role of the private sector in agricultural technology development as well as providing insights for future cognate science policy and practice.
