Sinossi

The development of innovative agricultural technologies has accelerated in recent years. However, there is a lack of effective mechanisms for disseminating these advances to smaller, less-educated producers. To address this issue, it is crucial to establish a communication network similar to the global network that disseminates the latest research findings to experts in various fields. In addition to knowledge, what is needed is an approach that can deliver the right information and tools to the right people, at the right time and in the right place. Traditional methods have certain advantages over modern techniques in developing countries, such as low capital and technological skill requirements, low disruption of traditional societies, utilization of indigenous knowledge, and the absence of large-scale pest outbreaks or economic crises. This book explores various traditional practices, including traditional varieties, crop protection, crop management, storage structures, medicinal plants, farm tools, ethno-veterinary practices, fisheries, post-harvest techniques, and other miscellaneous practices. These practices have been rationalized to provide a basis for scientists to test and verify new technologies and select viable options for field-level recommendations. This book will serve as a valuable reference for scholars and scientific workers in both laboratories and applied fields, setting the stage for future generations in this area.
