The publication draws on the emerging principles of agricultural innovation system (AIS) analysis to identify, design, and implement investments, approaches, and complementary interventions that appear most likely to promote agricultural innovation and equitable growth. While the sourcebook discusses why investments in AISs are becoming so important, it gives most of its attention to how specific approaches and practices can foster innovation in a range of contexts. The book provides a menu of tools, operational guidance, examples, and practical lessons.
