In Extremis by John Shirley
Technology adoption by agricultural producer is an essential prerequisite for economic prosperity in less developed countries.The poor performance in food production coupled with rapid population growth aggravated the problem of household food security and per capita food production.In fact, rapid population growth relative to food production and the scarcity of suitable arable land necessitates the application of science based production technologies in agriculture.In order to increase the production and productivity of agricultural output, the use of modern agricultural technologies are vital out of which high yielding varieties of crops are the most important technologies. However, evidence indicates that adoption rate of modern agricultural technologies in the developing countries are very low. This book therefore, provides for policymakers, all development partners like extension educators, agricultural research, NGOs and other development agents involved in agricultural development to know the impact of new technologies and the critical factors affecting the adoption of technologiesJohn Shirley is the author of Constantine, Bioshock: Rapture, and the award-winning Black Butterflies, among other works. He worked as a television writer for Fox and Paramount and was a co-screenwriter on the major motion picture The Crow. Wyatt in Wichita, his first effort into the Western genre, is the consequence of his lifelong fascination with Wyatt Earp and years of research.
