The present paper summarises the results and conclusions of the evaluation of crop production technologies carried out in the MEDRATE project. Five technologies including soil test calibration and fertilisation recommendation, seed and planting techniques, use of improved plant material, weed control and alternative crops and cropping systems are analysed at three levels (research, on-farm trial experimentation and farmers' utilisation). Technological problems and alternatives are presented as introductory background and finally some positive and negative aspects for the integration of these technologies are discussed.
