According to Wainwright and Walter (1998),
participation by farmers and users presents an essential
concept and strategy for planners, designers, community
organizers and government officials. According to Searle
(1990); Nurick (1982) and Hunter (1982) participation in
decision making reflects the opportunities for influence
and as a result, need satisfaction. In this regard and with
reference to the above mentioned, the degree of people
participation in development programs is a major
determinant of success or failure, but many opportunities
for people participation are met with littel enthusiasm or
cooperation by citizens (Wandersman and Gary, 1980)
and the policy which makes people participation efforts
successful still remain a mystery this study is an attempt to
revealing this mystery.
