The development and transfer of improved technology to farmers is a critical factor in agricultural development, but in many developing countries the process is poorly understood and in need of reassessment.

Abstract
This document presents an annotated bibliography of 271 items in areas related to these issues; most date from 1975 onwards, but a few older citations which have become classics are included. The bibliography is divided into five sections: (1) General Agricultural Development; (2) Policy and Planning; (3) Technology Development; (3) Technology Transfer; and (5) Technology Utilization. In the first section, most documents cited deal with agricultural development or systems in an integrated way, linking issues of policy, research, transfer, and utilization; a smaller number deal with a particular issue. Policy and planning as related to national technology systems are discussed in the second section, while the remaining three sections deal with the various functional activities within the systems and the interrelationships among them. Author, title, and subject indexes are included.
