  1. Cross analysis of multi-stakeholder innovation in smallholder farming : Key lessons and policy recommendations from Benin, Kenya and South Africa • AISA Conference, Nairobi, 30 May 2013

  2. JOLISAA Process Anal. framework Lessons Cross-Analysis 57innovation cases (Benin,Kenya, S. Africa) Case 1 13 cases Case Select ion Case 13 Collab. assessment Inventory Feb/10 Nov/11 Jul/13

  3. JOLISAA AssessmentProcess: Cases

  4. Key Lessons to be Elaborated Lesson 1: Innovations occur in the “social wild”, even when there is no intervention Lesson 2: Innovation processes comprise dynamic bundles of technological, institutional and organizational elements Lesson 3: Innovation processes that allow producers to connect with diverse value chains allow for more flexible and incremental changes Lesson 4: Over the long term, innovation processes unfold in unpredictable and unplannableways

  5. 1. Evenwherethereis no intervention, numerous innovations occur in the « social wild » Aloe PPP : Kenya

  6. 2. Innovation processescomprised of dynamic bundles of technological, organizationaland institutionalelements Prosopis innovation bundle: Kenya

  7. 3. Diverse value chains within commodity allow flexible and inclusive changes Soybean value chains: Benin

  8. 4. Over the long term, innovation processes unfold in unpredictable and unplannableways Soybeanevolution: Benin Initial plan: baby food Integrationinto cuisine Spreadsthroughfarmingsystems Oil plants adjustfromcotton to soy

  9. Challenges, lessons and recommendations Challenge: How to support innovation processes? L1: Innovations occur in the “social wild”, even when there is no intervention: R1: Policies, research and practice would do better recognizing and strengthening existing local innovation processes rather than trying to replace them. L2: Innovation processes comprise dynamic bundles of technological, institutional and organizational elements R2: Policy, research and practice should approach innovation in a way that integrates these elements.

  10. Challenges, lessons and recommendations Challenge: How to support innovation processes?L3: Innovation processes that allow producers to connect with diverse value chains allow for more flexible and incremental changes: R3: Increase research and investment in innovation processes that permit flexible engagement with formal and informal value chain stakeholders. L4: Over the long term, innovation processes unfold in unpredictable and unplannableways: R4: Provide an institutional environment that recognize and support unfolding processes and allow for flexible open-ended interventions.
