Responses to the request for information were obtained from 108 projects,
92 (85%) of which reported technology evaluation activities. The
distribution of different project types among these is shown in Table 1.
Additional information was obtained from the literature through computer
searches of the ICRAF library database. Based on the material
collected during the review, an annotated bibliography on technology
monitoring and evaluation in agroforestry projects has been published
[MiJller and Scherr 1989]. The bibliography provides the source material
underlying this paper.
The review did not attempt to establish a statistical sample of existing
projects and the information received from projects is treated as case
material. Summary statistics are presented to give the reader a sense of
relative frequency.
