Public private partnerships for agricultural innovation: concepts and experiences from 124 cases in Latin America

Frank Hartwich, Jaime Tola · 2007 · International Journal of Agricultural Resources Governance and Ecology

Summary. Public-private partnerships for agricultural innovation in Latin America often lack clear cost-benefit planning despite forming frequently. The paper identifies four conditions for successful partnerships: no single partner can achieve goals alone, partners gain more than they invest, synergy exists, and gains distribute proportionally. Evidence shows private companies participate readily because investments are low or tax-deductible, but both parties need coherent planning to improve partnership viability.
