The study was attempted to explore the major factors influencing the extent of practice of organic farming technologies (called OFTs from here) by the Bangladeshi farmers. The empirical data for the study were collected from the organic farmers of the selected villages of Tangail district in Bangladesh. The results of the study identified four factors like development of knowledge and awareness regarding environmental issues, creation of health awareness, and simplicity of the OFTs and availability of basic production factors as the major influential factors which can increase the extent of practice of OFTs by the farmers. Taking these factors into account the policy makers can formulate a strategy to increase the extent of practice of various OFTs by the... |

Farmer participation was essential in developing a uniquely useful set of wheat variety trials data on a wide range of organic farms over two years. Although the trials were successful, it became clear that some of the participating farmers felt there were some limitations in the process. These included a lack of ownership in the project and a concern for more researcher help. It was clear that a greater time in-vestment was needed at the start of the project to help with farmer understanding and ownership. De-spite the negative comments, farmers appreciated their involvement, particularly in contrasting their own views and information with that from the wider scene. Farmer participation is essential for systems-level research and this project helped to... |

The Organic Conversion Information Service (OCIS) has been operational in Wales since 1996. In 2001 the original funding arrangements for OCIS came to an end and this review was conducted to evaluate the service and canvas farmer opinion to inform the next phase of its development. A questionnaire survey of everyone who had contacted OCIS in its first five years revealed generally high satisfaction with the helpline, information pack and on-farm advisory visits provided by the service. Farmers identified a range of extra features that would be useful, such as more information on marketing, environmental issues and conversion planning. |

Im Rahmen des Bundesprogramms Ökologischer Landbau (BÖL) wurden mehrere Maßnahmen zum Wissenstransfer und zur Netzwerkbildung durchgeführt. Diese Informationen wurden in den meisten Fällen aber nur einem kleineren Kreis von Schlüsselakteuren oder Multiplikatoren der Zielgruppe zugänglich. Ziel dieses Projektes ist es daher, den Wissenstransfer zu vervielfältigen und die unter hohem Aufwand erarbeiteten Ergebnisse der Forschung zum ökologischen Landbau in die Praxis zu befördern. Mit den Maßnahmen des Wissenstransfers sollen Praktiker und Unternehmer erreicht werden, die bisher noch nicht ausreichend über neue Ergebnisse aus Forschung, Entwicklung und Erprobung informiert wurden. Besondere Berücksichtigung finden dabei die Ergebnisse des Bundesprogramms... |

Im Rahmen des Bundesprogramms Ökologischer Landbau veranstaltete die Stiftung Ökologie & Landbau (SÖL) vom 2.-3. November 2005 einen 2-tägigen internationalen Workshop zum Wissenstransfer in der Bioberatung. Ziel des Projektes war es, den Wissenstransfer der vielfältigen und unter hohem Aufwand erarbeiteten Forschungsergebnisse zum Ökologischen Landbau zu fördern. Bioberater sollen als wesentliche Multiplikatoren besser als bisher am Wissensfortschritt zum Öko-Landbau teilhaben können und ihr Know-How noch umsetzungsorientierter an Praktiker sowie Unternehmer weitergeben können. An der Veranstaltung nahmen 17 Bioberater aus 4 verschiedenen Ländern mit leitenden oder konzeptionellen Aufgaben teil. In dem Workshop wurden drei Themenschwerpunkte... |

Measures, Mr Mark. |
The uptake of organic research by commercial producers has been variable due to a number of factors including lack of access to research findings, financial pressures, research priorities, market demands and producer perspectives. Consequently “best organic practice” is not universally applied and apparently intractable problems remain, even though in some cases solutions are available. This paper identifies the role of advisers in supporting organic farmers and the establishment of a system for disseminating the results of research through a number of routes including a web-based archive, advisory leaflets and workshops. |
