Box 123, Bogor, Indonesia Summary Objectives were to study the process of scientists in the Research Institute for Animal dissemination of information, to assess the role Production with the principles of the farming of small ruminants in plantation systems, and systems approach. to improve farming systems research. Study results made it clear that women played an important role in small ruminant production and therefore must be involved directly in the flow of information. A case study in North Sumatra indicated no relationship between farm size and family income, underscoring the complicated nature of the social economy in that region. A workshop in 1990 acquainted 135
Research Results Objectives Project objectives were to study the process of dissemination and the adoption of small ruminant production packages, to assess the role of small ruminants in plantation systems and to upgrade the capacity to conduct farming systems research. Project Progress and Achievements Village Women's Groups Engaged in Small Ruminant Production The focus of this project was to devise technology packages and dissemination strategies in order to improve small ruminant production among women producers. Women play an important role in Indonesian small ruminant production. Devising methods to disseminate small ruminant technology to them will be an important element of an overall development strategy. The approach undertaken was to organize women's groups, or to utilize existing groups, to serve as vehicles for transmitting information. An evaluation of changes in small ruminant production management strategies would follow. Data was collected and analysis was begun. Further analysis was thought necessary and it is expected that a report will be published 1990-91. Extension Seminar This project was not undertaken due to new responsibilities of the RIAP collaborating scientist. Evaluation of SR-CRSP Input in Cerebon One of the earliest sites for SR-CRSP onfarm research was in Cerebon, West Java. Early in the history of the program a significant program of data collection, coupled with farmers' meetings and technology dissemination was undertaken. Most activities ceased about 1985 and as yet no evaluation of the long-term effects of those early efforts has been done. Data for 136 evaluation was collected, but before analysis could be undertaken the collaborating scientists were assigned other duties which forced a suspension of activities. Gender Gap Study This study continues a series of studies which have sought to clarify sex role differentiation with regard to small ruminant production. Such knowledge is critical if appropriate technologies and strategies for disseminating these technologies are to be developed. In the case of this study a modified survey approach which combined in-depth interviews, questionnaires, and scalogram analysis was undertaken. An analysis was begun after the data was collected; however, further analysis is necessary and it is expected that a report will be published in 1990 91. Dissemination of SR Technology to Non-OPP Farmers This study was not undertaken due to time constraints of investigators. Peasant Household Production in Plantation Areas: A Case Study of North Sumatra At the time that the preliminary 1989-90 workplans were developed (Fall, 1988) this study was not discussed. It was undertaken by Sri Wening for her M.S. thesis research and actually approved in the 1990-91 plan of work. The study sought to begin to build a data base to support the SR-CRSP effort in North Sumatra. Specifically, it sought to study the dynamics of farm size, off-farm income, household resources, and livestock production. Knowledge of how these are interconnected will be critical in order to anticipate the consequences of the sheepunder-rubber technology package being developed. Data for the study were collected in the summer of 1990. Preliminary analysis showed nearly no relationship between farm size and family income due to the large number of small farmers who worked off-farm (e.g., on rubber plantations). A majority of all farm size groups
