This edition is concerned with methodologies at several different stages of the development process. The first article looks at the use of ranking as a technique for analysing species of trees and shrubs eaten by cattle in Nigeria. This edition also includes a report on creating user-oriented handbooks about RRA methods. Another contribution looks at uses for local calendars and oral history. The final article reports from North West Pakistan on using stories to describe information.
