Agriculture is the way of life of rural people. Green revolution has resulted in achieving food sufficiency with adequate grain reserves. However, green revolution has not benefited irrigated small farms and rain fed farms. The technology application gap still persists in such areas. The reasons being generation of technologies that do not match with the microfarming situation of the farmers. It is being realized that the participation of such farmers in planning and implementation of technology transfer programmes will result in generation of appropriate technologies and there by improving the adoption. Participatory Rural Appraisal is the technique that helps in interacting with local people, understanding them and learning from them. PRA technique helps in generation of appropriate technologies that fit into the need of spatially and temporally variable farming situations.
