      abstract = {Since beginning work as a voluntary non-government  development organization in Bangladesh in 1970, Mennonite  Central Committee's (MCC) technically qualified volunteers  and staff have conducted farmer participatory research and  collaborated with government researchers and institutions  for agricultural development. MCC achieved limited success  in communicating the needs and constraints of marginal  farmers to government researchers and institutions, and  likewise had limited success in adapting government  research to the subsistence farmer context. The paper  documents the evolution of MCC's Agriculture Programme,  describes MCC's agricultural research .and extension effort  and impact, discusses MCC's procedure for setting research  agenda, presents case studies of collaborative efforts, and  indicates possible MCC directions for the future.},
