Farmers and their local organizations are not only the end receivers in the technology transfer process but are also means of effective horizontal transfer of technologies to other farmers. Farmer organizations are a requisite for the maintenance of many improved technologies which require collective action. The Pakistan case study describes the importance of this concept and the need for irrigation specialists to understand and utilize local farm organizations for water management improvement programs. The unique research-development process developed by Colorado State University in Pakistan has built- in mechanisms for the transfer and maintenance of technologies.
