Research for sustainable agricultural production systems in high altitude zones of Eastern Africa
This paper addresses considerations for agricultural technology evaluation at various levels. At the research level, considerations include the information need, the resources required to conduct the research and the probability of research success. At the field-level, agronomic feasibility and t...
