Innovations


Examples:

‘Innovation is understood to mean those processes through which actors can change established routines.’

Technical innovation: e.g. mechanisation, improved seed, fertilisers and cold chains

New approaches to cooperation: creation of producer cooperatives, specialised companies

New or improved services: extension work, basic and further training, access to loans

Cooperation of research/practice: links to knowledge centres such as research institutes or agricultural colleges


Indicators


As women usually have reduced access to production factors and education and training, special consideration is given to their requirements, for example through specific training and extension measures.
