Participatory methods
Stakeholder participation, local knowledge and sustainability have become increasingly 
important concepts in the history of development-oriented research in agriculture. 
Perhaps a major disadvantage remains the generation of large sets of mostly qualitative 
data and the long-term research process. However, methods such as rapid and 
participatory rural appraisal (McCracken et al., 1988; Pretty et al., 1995) have addressed 
the latter and attained a balance between speed and depth of agro-ecosystem or farming 
system analysis. 
Participatory methods have also been evaluated positively as problem identification 
methods in a developed country context, e.g. in Australia (Ison and Ampt 1992), 
Switzerland (Chambers 1992b), UK (Wild and Marshall 1999) and USA (Dlott et al., 
1994). The methods enforced closer links between researchers and farmers in order to
inter alia, determine possibilities for future agronomic research and achieve sustainable 
use of land and water resources at the local level (Chamala and Mortiss 1990; Dlott 
et al., 1994; Webber and Ison 1995). Stakeholder participation has helped to achieve 
environmental planning and management at the catchment level and facilitated the 
identification and introduction of sustainable land management practices (Selin and 
Chavez 1995; Curtis and Lockwood 2000), e.g. in New Zealand (Bosch et al., 1996) 
and Canada (Robinson 1997). 
Each participatory method draws on a number of techniques in order to involve the 
different stakeholders, providing guiding principles on how the techniques are used. 
Research methods developed under various schools of thoughts have resulted in a wide 
choice of tools that can be used to involve different stakeholders (Chapter 4).
Cross-sectoral approach
The principle of integrating a particular policy with other policy areas is a relatively new 
concept. The integration of multiple policies has been examined through the analysis 
of cross-sectoral linkages. In environmental policy, integration of the environment into 
sectoral policies and activities are key issues, and sectoral integration is perceived as a 
crucial strategy to achieve sustainable development. 
Land use and sustainable land use are subject to influences of external policies that 
may exceed the effects resulting from policy within the sector itself. Land use and 
particularly sustainable land use is a multi-dimensional development issue that needs 
cross-sectoral, integrated approaches. Understanding the nature of major cross-sectoral 
linkages affecting land use leads to the identification of priority areas for attention and 
harmonized action with respect to the influence of policies. However, beyond a general 
recognition of their importance there has been limited systematic analysis on cross-
sectoral linkages related to sustainable land use. 


Land evaluation – towards a revised framework
26
The main external influences on sustainable land use are related to macro-economic 
policies, agricultural policies, rural development and poverty alleviation, trade and 
infrastructure, the environment and conservation of natural resources, energy and 
industry policies, tourism and recreation and the role of governance and institutions. 
This list is not exhaustive and can be adapted according to the context. Based on the 
characterization of the main sectoral linkages, a further analysis should be conducted.
