- Abstract
The article focuses on technical people (téchnicos) who are potential agricultural research contributors. It explores their characteristics including background, job security, and behavior. It says that téchnicos bridge the incomprehension gap between scientists and farmers since they are bilingual. It tackles the vocabulary of téchnicos which is composed of popular terms that help them communicate with local farmers and the ways to integrate téchnicos to research.
