abstract:
Over the past 20 years the context for agriculture has changed rapidly, sometimes radically. This has significant implications for the way that policy makers, policy implementers, farmers and scientists
as well as other stakeholders work together. Drawing on case studies from South Africa, France, the
Netherlands, and the UK and from a recent project on the climate change adaptation of Italian agriculture
(www.agroscenari.it), we provide a range of examples of how new and more ‘integrative’ modalities are
being developed as a means of connecting these different actors in new relationships of knowledge coproduction
and innovation. We conclude with some reflections on how such approaches might best be
upscaled.
