Strengthening Conservation Agriculture innovation systems in sub-Saharan Africa: lessons from a stakeholder analysis

Edna Chinseu, Andrew J. Dougill, Lindsay C. Stringer · 2021 · International Journal of Agricultural Sustainability

Summary. Conservation Agriculture innovation in Malawi relies heavily on NGOs and government, but smallholder farmers remain passive participants rather than active stakeholders. Promoters lack technical and financial capacity, and weak collaboration between organizations limits knowledge-sharing and program integration. The paper recommends strengthening stakeholder understanding of innovation systems, building partnerships through platforms, and improving advisory mechanisms to enable joint implementation and feedback.
