Searching for the physical mechanism that can excite the coherent radio\nemission in pulsars is still an enigmatic problem. A wealth of high quality\nobservations exist, which over the years have been instrumental in putting\nstringent constraints to pulsar emission models. In this article we will\ndiscuss the observational results that strongly suggests that pulsar radio\nemission is excited by coherent curvature radiation. We will also mention\nissues that remain to be resolved.\n
