Introducing ‘microAKIS’: a farmer-centric approach to understanding the contribution of advice to agricultural innovation

Lee‐Ann Sutherland, Pierre Labarthe · 2022 · The Journal of Agricultural Education and Extension

Summary. This paper introduces microAKIS, a farmer-centered framework for analyzing how agricultural advice systems contribute to innovation on farms. The approach shifts focus from institutional structures to individual farmer experiences and decision-making, examining how advisory services actually influence farmers' adoption of new practices and technologies. The framework helps identify which advice mechanisms most effectively support agricultural innovation at the farm level.
