dc.description.abstractThe first study defines the context and boundaries of agricultural technology in the English speaking Caribbean; examines the forces which give the agricultural system its present characteristics; makes a critical analysis of agricultural research institutions; and recommends research aimed at specifying correct techniques and future changes in farming systems to reduce adverse effects of technology.
