| Summary: | n the the last two decades, in devcloping counlries. rnany training aClivitics for tbe safe use of peslicides llave taken place. However follow up evaluatioDS oC sorne oC ¡hese training eourses has revealed that even Ihough in most cases there has been a transfer oC knowledgc_ this has not res ultcd in a significant change of aU itude. lt seems ¡hat the training
