- W2084584760 abstract "Because of a lack of funds and of experienced scientific personnel, many of the African national agricultural research systems (NARS) tend to be poorly equipped to handle the complexities of a holistic systems research programme. Therefore, strengthening these NARS should start by reinforcing their thematic and commodity research programme, which necessarily involves the introduction of a systems perspective along with some on-farm activities. This approach would not require extensive institutional reorganization and would be far less costly than the creation of independent systems research units. Based on a detailed study of the Rwanda NARS in relation to agricultural development, it was concluded that both donors and NARS leaders should be more concerned about the integration of projects into the national institutional framework, starting from the design phase. Also the sustainability and continuity of the research activities in terms of operating cost and local manpower following project termination should be emphasised. As a result the overall national research programme would not become biased towards short-term production objectives such as for annual food crops; but would also address more complex and vital long-term issues, like land degradation and the sustainability of local and improved technologies, which would require integration between disciplinary activities of technical, biological and social scientists. To achieve these aims it is necessary that the scientists share a similar systems perspective which can be reinforced through participative methods that effectively link the research with the knowledge and needs of farmers and extension personnel." @default.
