Description In the post-harvest area and in agriculture research in general, both in India and
internationally, policy attention is returning to the question of how innovation can be
encouraged and promoted and thus how impact on the poor can be achieved. This
publication assembles several cases from the post-harvest sector. These provide examples
of successful innovation that emerged in quite different ways. Its purpose is to illustrate
and analyze the diversity and often highly context-specific nature of the processes that
lead to and promote innovation. The presented cases suggest a number of generic principles
needed to develop the capacity of innovation systems: the need to pay more attention to
revealing and managing the historical and institutional context of partnerships and
relationship; the need to build on local contexts and circumstance rather than introducing
external blueprints; and the need to strengthen the learning process and to link this to
the broader agenda of institutional change, particularly concerning the governance of
public science endeavors.
