Shaping agricultural innovation systems responsive to food insecurity and climate change

Sally Brooks, Michael Loevinsohn · 2011 · Natural Resources Forum

Summary. Agricultural innovation systems must adapt to climate change and food insecurity by learning from smallholder farmers' strategies in developing countries. The paper examines three regional cases and identifies four key features that strengthen food security: recognizing agriculture's multiple functions, ensuring access to diversity for resilience, building decision-maker capacity at all levels, and maintaining sustained commitment to farmer well-being. These insights guide policymakers in reshaping innovation systems.
