Enhancing agricultural innovation

the long version

"Enhancing Agricultural Innovation came about as a result of an international workshop organized in June 2001 in Washington, DC by the World Bank's Agriculture and Rural Development Department. The book evaluates real-world innovation systems and assesses the usefulness of the concept in guiding investments to support knowledge-intensive, sustainable agriculture development for the Bank's client countries and their collaborators. A typology of innovation systems is developed; strategies to guide investments for strengthening innovation capacity are drawn up, and concrete interventions options are identified."--Jacket.
