Abstract
The introduction of a new technology to farmers in developing countries frequently necessitates complementary changes in related traditional practices. This has been particularly true where post-harvest knowledge and technology has lagged behind the rapid acceptance of modern, high-yielding varieties. This paper describes the diffusion of low-cost potato storage practices among Philippine farmers, a case study which has wider implications for international efforts to reduce post-harvest losses in developing countries.
