Abstract

The linkage among agricultural research, rural extension and farmers is key to promoting innovation and development processes. In general, works addressing problems in this linkage usually do so tangentially or from specific case studies. A systematic literature review of articles written in English, Spanish and Portuguese was conducted with the aim of identifying and organising the problems affecting the research-extension-farmer linkage. The identified problems were classified into central problems, and problems related to the institutional and management environments, the resources and staff, the epistemological-ideological structure organising the relationship, and attitudinal and subjective factors. The detected problems make up a complex causal network and cannot be addressed independently. Moreover, since they implicitly shape the interaction among research, extension and farmers, the problems related to formal and informal institutional structures, to the incentive systems and to the ways of understanding innovation have a strong incidence in the dynamics of the different linkages.

农业研究、农村推广和农民之间的联系问题：国际文献综述

农业研究、农村推广和农民之间的联系是促进创新和发展进程的关键。一般来说，解决这一联系中的问题的工作通常是间接地或从具体的案例研究中进行的。对用英语、西班牙语和葡萄牙语撰写的文章进行了系统的文献综述，目的是识别和组织影响研究扩展农民联系的问题。已确定的问题分为中心问题和与制度和管理环境、资源和人员、组织关系的认识论意识形态结构以及态度和主观因素有关的问题。检测到的问题构成了一个复杂的因果网络，无法独立解决。此外，由于它们隐含地影响了研究、推广和农民之间的互动，与正式和非正式体制结构、激励制度和理解创新的方式有关的问题在不同联系的动态中有很大的影响。
