Much recent ''scientific'' agricultural research has failed to build upon the valuable experiences and lessons learnt from farmers, in combating problems faced in agriculture.

Development workers, agricultural researchers and others concerned about rural poverty, agricultural sustainability and local resource management will find this book highly relevant and of value to their work.
