Abstract: Abstract It is generally recognised that the physical requirements for agricultural development in developing countries are improved farming techniques with proper and adequate use of such inputs as water, fertilisers, pesticides, improved seeds, and proper facilities for storage, transportation and marketing. But the introduction of such technological changes in tradition-bound peasant agriculture is difficult and time-consuming, particularly because it requires action by large numbers of farmers.
