Abstract
This paper, intended for those engaged in training national research and extension personnel in on-fann research (OFR) methods, summarizes the experiences of the CIMMYT Economics Program, in collaboration with members of the Maize and Wheat Programs, in developing call system training courses in OPR during the past decade. Call system courses consist of multiple meetings (calls) throughout one or more agricultural seasons in which members of national research and extension institutions are introduced to the methods of location-specific adaptive research. After briefly reviewing the methods and concepts of OFR, this paper describes the objectives, organization, and procedures of each call that constitutes the course. Suggestions for teaching materials and followup activities are also included.
