| dc.description | The Reading University/Overseas Development Institute joint
Programme of research on agricultural development has been based on the
belief that, however good agricultural policies might be, there is a widespread
failure in implementation. This paper expands on the main hypothesis
underlying the research, namely, that in considering the choice of
methods (administration, organisation and institutions) for implementation
of agricultural policies, consideration of four main factors will lead
to choices which are more likely to succeed:
1) The attitudes, capacities and needs of the
local farming community at the time;
2) Technical factors, especially the primary type of
crop or animal husbandry practised;
3) The nature of the processing and marketing channel;
and
4) The administrative resources and capacity of the
main agency of change (usually government or a
parastatal agency). | |
