Publisher Description: Mechanization and Maize focuses on several international assistance agencies and on two African countries, Kenya and Tanzania. The technologies considered are improved varieties of maize, the primary East African food crop, and small-and large-scale forms of agricultural mechanization. The book investigates how political and technical forces come together, and draws upon the debate on the Green Revolution.
