The role of economists in on-farm testing in agricultural research
In 1976 expt. were conducted on var. trials, fertilization, insecticides, and herbicides in order to identify new technology that could be introduced into small- and intermediate-scale bean production in Honduras. Factors of a complete technological package were also discarded to identify the mos...
