Year: 2025

Type: article

Abstract: South Africa's first survey on innovation in agriculture found diverse patterns of innovation activity across the sector. At a recent HSRC policy forum, the findings catalysed rich debate among actors from universities, farming councils and government departments about how to foster and direct innovation. Speakers identified the need for better data, a more coordinated policy approach regarding innovation, and incentives for technologies that promote sustainability and benefit small scale farmers.
