Abstract

[fre] II est maintenant reconnu que la qualité des solutions techniques est interdépendante des personnes qui les produisent et qui les appliquent. L'invention d'une autre agriculture, appelée de leurs vœux par de nombreux chercheurs et institutions suppose l'invention d'autres rapports entre recherche, développement et production. Ces trois pôles doivent apprendre à s'articuler pour construire ensemble un nouvel objet de recherche où chacun apportera son savoir-faire. L'exercice n'est pas si facile pour le chercheur agronome qui s'efforce ainsi de réconcilier la recherche et l'action, dans un processus de va et vient permanent de construction-déconstruction-reconstruction et enfin de distanciation. Au long des cinq années vécues au sein d'un projet de Recherche-Développement au Nicaragua, le chercheur initialement observateur s'est engagé puis impliqué avec les agents du développement dans l'action. Le parcours, les résistances, les doutes, l'intérêt, et les enseignements de cette expérimentation sociale sont ici tirés. [eng] From involvement to committment : where is the border ? . It is now well-known that quality of the technical solutions is interdependent with those who produce and apply them. The invention of a different agriculture, reclamed by numerous researchers and institutions calls for the invention of different relationships between research, development and production. These three poles have to learn to work together so that they may build a new research object where everyone will provide his know-how. This practice isn't so easy for the agronomist who tries to do so by reconciling research and action, through a permanent to and fro process of construction-de- construction-reconstruction and finally taking distance. For five years in a research-development project in Nicaragua, the researcher, initially an observer, became involved and then truly participated in the action with the extensionists. The itinerary, the resistance, the doubts, the interest, and the lessons of this social experimentation are thus drawn.
