It is estimated that there are about 500 million small farmers throughout the developing world. Conventional scientific research and extension programmes have emphasized high-input approaches geared to modernizing small farm agriculture and, often, technological packages developed at experiment stations or transferred from industrialized countries, do not fit the conditions or needs of those farmers.
This book contains new ideas to solve the challenges of the small farmer.
