• Wheat improvement in India: present status, emerging challenges and future prospects (2007, background): “The third option relies on promoting participatory research (OrtizFerrara et al. 2001; Witcombe et al. 2001, 2003; Joshi et al. 2005).”
• Wheat genetic resources enhancement by the International Maize and Wheat Improvement Center (CIMMYT) (2008, background): “Partnerships for development, dissemination, and adoption of improved technologies for improving wheat productivity Participatory research and development has been reported as an efficient approach for up-scaling new agricultural technologies (Ortiz Ferrara et al. 2001; Witcombe et al. 2001).”
• Breeding crops for reduced-tillage management in the intensive, rice–wheat systems of South Asia (2006, background): “…a way to capture information about the performance of experimental cultivars under actual farm con- ditions and farmer management, as well as obtaining a better appreciation of the traits and genotypes valued by farmers (Witcombe et al. 1996, 2001; Ortiz Ferrara et al. 2001; Joshi et al. 2005).”
• Challenges to wheat production in South Asia (2007, background): “It has been suggested that participatory research is capable of solving the problems of the farmers that very often are not realized due to vast diversity in farmer’s Welds (Ortiz-Ferrara et al. 2001; Witcombe et al. 2001; Joshi et al. 2007a).”
