CAPÍTULO V CONCLUSIONES Y RECOMENDACIONES
Anexo 7: Instrumento para realizar la entrevista semiestructurada
Further studies are recommended in the areas:
More studies are needed at a number of different sites to see if the same results will be obtained with different social characteristics.
More research can be done on the social networks to see how far seed can go from the original farmer who gets the seeds and the influencing socio economic characteristics.
