| Summary, etc. |
CA is practised on about 100m ha worldwide. It is now a farmer-proven technology resulting in energy savings and dramatic reductions in soil erosion. CA is complementary to other resource conserving technologies (e.g. raised beds, agroforestry and terracing) which together confer greater eco-system resilience to production systems. CA equipment (principally for planting and weed control) can be tractor, animal or human powered. Illustrations of CA equipment supply situations in South America, Africa and Asia are given; the range of equipment available is described as is the range of stakeholders in the CA equipment input supply chain. National and international policy-maker level issues to facilitate the local manufacture and provision of appropriate CA equipment are emphasised. These include: formulation of mechanization strategies; improvement of rural infrastructure; facilitation of finance options; tax relief and subsidies; batch purchase; facilitation of testing and R&D services; technical and business management training; provision of quality extension services; land tenure reform; revision of obsolete policies; inclusion of CA in academic curricula, etc. Policies and strategies for other stakeholders (manufactures, importers, retailers, hire and repair service providers and farmers) are also discussed. The main conclusions indicate the need for policy action at government level to promote CA for environmental protection, improve the quality and supply of CA equipment and encourage farmer adoption of CA. |
