The main focus of this study is on research and developmental approaches with regard to agricultural diversification and transfer of technology to small scale farmers in the less favored areas in Bangladesh. Agriculture is an important part of the Bangladesh economy, with about 80% of people living in rural areas, which accounts for 65% of the labor force engaged in agriculture. Under the existing land tenure system, the majority of economic participants in the agricultural sector are small scale farmers. They produce many forms of crop.livestock integration which vary according to different socio .economic needs. Family farming is characterized by relatively low production rates because of factors such as climate, soil condition, crop varieties, irrigation, breeding, feeding, diseases and management. Thus, the research and development of agricultural diversification can play a significant role in meeting people's nutritional needs, alleviating severe nutrient deficiencies. After the independence of Bangladesh, a non.governmental organization from North America, MCC (Mennonite Central Committee) has been working since 1972 to conduct research in generating agricultural technologies and to make them available to the marginal and below marginal farm families in the less favored area in south Bangladesh. Afterwards, from 1988, as a sub.program of MCC Agriculture Program, Partnership in Agriculture Research and Extension (PARE) was started to work with local NGOs in the less favored areas in central and north Bangladesh, with the objective to build their capacity in establishing agricultural components for their beneficiaries. Probably in recognition of the importance of that goal, international NGOs have provided funding to MCC for the implementation of the PARE Program in order to : 1) Provide skill training to partner NGO staff, 2) Assist NGO staff in conducting training for their beneficiaries, 3) Conduct demonstrations, 4) Conduct on.farm trials, 5) Organize field days, 6) Involve beneficiaries in undertaking agricultural projects, 7) Develop networking and linkages with government institutions through organizing workshops and seminars. It will be good model for the agricultural transfer of technology to small scale farmers in other developing countries.
