520 _aExtract: In order to place this study in the context of other field research on risk and adoption, it is useful to contrast what is analyzed and is not analyzed in terms of technology, time, and location. The case study focuses on the adoption of a step in technology, not on a package of practices; on who ultimately adopts, not on who first adopts; and on weather-induced yield risk in rainfed agriculture, not on price risk
