El presente documento contiene un primer borrador de lineamientos generales de política pública para la agricultura campesina, familiar y comunitaria en Colombia, construido en el marco de la Mesa Técnica de Agricultura Familiar y Economía Campesina que lidera el Viceministerio de Desarrollo Rural. El objetivo de este documento es recibir la retroalimentación por parte de un grupo de expertos internacionales en agricultura familiar y de los actores participantes de la Mesa Técnica de Agricultura Familiar y Economía Campesina.
Este documento presenta una versión resumida y gráfica del documento técnico que acompaña a la Re- solución 464 de 2017 del Ministerio de Agricultura y Desarrollo rural, por medio de la cual se adoptan los Lineamientos Estratégicos de Política Pública para la Agricultura Campesina, Familiar y Comunitaria. Por tratarse de un documento con estas características, se recomienda al lector que quiera profundizar en alguna de las secciones aquí señaladas, remitirse directamente a la Resolución 464 y al documento técnico que la acompaña.
In this paper, presented at the 8th European IFSA Symposium ( Workshop 6: "Change in knowledge systems and extension services: Role of the new actors") in 2008, the authors discuss a conceptual framework that understands innovation processes as the outcome of collaborative networks where information is exchanged and learning processes happen. They argue that technical and economic factors used to analyse drivers and barriers alone are not sufficient to understand innovation processes.
This report explores the role of rural networks in enhancing innovation processes, questioning the features of the agricultural/rural networks could enhance farmers’ ability to co-innovate in cooperation with other actors. The prospect of this investigation is also to provide interesting and significant experiences that constitute examples for the ‘European Innovation Partnership’ by increasing farmers’ capacities to create, test, implement and evaluate innovations in cooperation with other rural actors.
Depuis plusieurs décennies, la canne et la banane, monocultures fortement dépendantes des intrants, façonnent le paysage guadeloupéen de manière binaire : canne au Nord et banane au Sud. Depuis quelques années la production de bananes est dans une situation difficile avec l’évolution rapide du cadre régle- mentaire et du fonctionnement du marché de la banane. Les planteurs et les organisations agricoles doivent réfléchir à une nouvelle orientation des itinéraires techniques conventionnels.
Este documento explora las demandas tecnológicas y de extensión que los principales actores en el entorno institucional esperan que el INTA atienda, de cara al 2030.
Este panfleto describe las actividades del INTA (Instituto Nacional de Tecnología Agropecuaria) relacionadas conlas redes de innovaciones.
This presentation argues the need of green growth in agriculture, analyzes features of the innovation systems and ends with some policies practices. The presentation has been prepared for "Innovation and Modernising the Rural Economy", OECD’s 8th Rural Development Policy Conference, 3-5 October 2012 (Krasnoyarsk, Russian Federation).
There are divergent views on what capacity development might mean in relation to agricultural biotechnology. The core of this debate is whether this should involve the development of human capital and research infrastructure, or whether it should encompass a wider range of activities which also include developing the capacity to use knowledge productively. This paper uses the innovation systems concept to shed light on this discussion, arguing that it is innovation capacity rather than science and technology capacity that has to be developed.
This report compiles country-reports that describe the agri-food research landscape in 2006/2007 in 33 countries associated to the 6th Framework Programme (FP6), which defined the European for the period from 2002 to 2006. Each country-report presents information about the main research players in 2006/2007 and about the current trends and the future needs for research topics and for the organisation of the agri-food research system.
