N2  - Extract: In this paper, we discuss Farming Systems Research which has the following characteristics: (a) It aims to generate technology to increase resource productivity for an identified group of farmers, especially in the short term. (b) It is conceptually based on a farming systems perspective. (c) It uses on-farm research methods. Taking the viewpoint of national agricultural research programs, we argue that this specific subset of research activities should receive priority in efforts to improve the effectiveness of agricultural research
