Event Description
- Full Description:
- Working with small holders in small countries: research in capacity building, food policy and ceremonies
Scott Waldron
Agricultural development projects commonly aim to improve the lives of small-holder farmers that have a range of resources, objectives and capacities. The governments of developing countries commonly aim to “get small farms moving” through extension, policy and other measures – with mixed success.
This seminar outlines some of the measures used to improve the productivity and livelihoods of small-holders in two current ACIAR beef development projects in Timor Leste and Vanuatu. It will also outline apparent research gaps in agricultural development in small countries in the Asia-Pacific region – in communication, food policy and ceremonies. The objectives of the seminar are to seek feedback and to identify common research interests in UQ.
