Strengthening Farmer Capacity to Harness Technological Innovation for Agricultural Commercialisation

Abstract

This brief uses 3 science, technology and innovation (STI) revolution storylines based on case studies from Ethiopia, Zambia, and Ghana to highlight the enabling factors that make STI a vehicle for agricultural commercialisation. The storylines based on the three case studies were identified considering their relevance to the different types of farming (small-, medium- and large-scale), the importance of commercialisation linked to STI, and the diversity of production systems.
