Abstract
This paper reviews major features generally found in Farming Systems Research (FSR) programmes and projects. The paper argues that while considerable attention has been given to the development of FSR manuals, survey techniques, etc., insufficient attention has been given to issues concerning the evaluation of FSR projects and the organisation and management of agricultural research in developing countries. The paper discusses important institutional issues such as control over agricultural research resources, creative conflict between disciplines, communications methods, evaluation and the need for research groups to define the specific clients (specific group of farmers) for whom they are working.
