| Summary, etc |
"The Philippine Council for Agriculture, Forestry and Natural Resources Research and Development (PCARRD) has adopted a set of criteria against which technologies for dissemination could be evaluated. One of these criteria is economic viability which means that a technology proposed for dissemination should offer sufficient economic incentives to the target clientele.<br/>Economic viability analysis is a very important component of technology assessment activity. Economic viability should be determined once the bio-physical suitability of the technology has been established to ensure adoption by target clientele.<br/>This handbook was prepared to assist technical researchers in evaluating the economic viability of agricultural technologies. Various methodologies for economic assessment of technologies are presented in a simplified manner to facilitate understanding. We hope technical researchers will find this handbook useful."<br/>- Cledualdo B. Perez, Executive Director |
