These limitations should be kept in mind whiledesigning and implementing farmer participatory research• Undirected experimentation27
• Lack of analytical approach• Poor experimental design (e.g. replicates, controls, etc)Result sharing: Farmer to farmer extensionStudy the existing farmer-to-farmer information sharing practices and strengthen the exiting systems• Through arranging cross visits• Through arranging learning by doing on farmers farm• Through development of audio-visual training aids for farmers by the farmers• Development of farmer extensions /promoter at grass root level through training / guidanceSustaining the process• Inspire farmers to form formal groups and link them to central farmer organizations• Train in-group management and group development• Link the framer groups to extension services• Advocate at national level for policy support to PTD process. Provide institutional support• Document the process, experimentation methods, and extension systems• Assess the impact of technology and the process on the livelihood of peopleFarmer innovationsTo enable us to understand the innovative potential of farmers, let us examine some of the inventions made by thefarmers with the commodities that are covered under the ASEAN project.Problems of farmer participatory researchThere are several constraints in implementing farmer participatory research• It takes a longer time to establish contacts, build relationship and win the confidence of farmers.• Farmers may be motivated to undertake research in anticipation of benefits• Farmers always anticipate quick results and prefer short cuts• Literacy level being low in many instances, record keeping is a major challengeIt is important to note that farmer participatory is not the solution for all problems and essential precaution must betaken to advocate farmer participatory research as a solution to various problems (Bentley, 1994)Innovations in tiger shrimp:The farmers in Kerala, India, developed shrimp farming along with other finfishes in the brackish water areas ofthis state. During the monsoon, a salt tolerant paddy, known as Pokkali is grown. After the harvest of paddy,28
