The assumption that developing countries will quickly introduce the production techniques of advanced western nations has influenced early attempts to mechanise agriculture in Africa. Historical experience of farm mechanisation which was associated with a steady movement of rural labour to the cities and rapid mechanisation only when the proportion of population in agriculture declined to well below 30 per cent, has generally been ignored. Politicians presume the possibility of speeding up transformation of techniques by introducing the most advanced available technology, attempting in one' stage what has elsewhere been achieved by steady evolution over generations.
