"As part of a three-year project focusing on improving the livelihoods of\r\npoor livestock keepers by improving the availability of fodder, new groundnut\r\nvarieties were tested, incorporating participatory rural appraisal (PRA), rapid rural\r\nappraisal (RRA), focus group discussions (FGDs) and field days as learning\r\nplatforms. These approaches had limitations in addressing the complexity of the\r\ngroundnut farming system and therefore constraints to the uptake of improved\r\nvarieties continued to elude solution. The potential of a multi-stakeholder approach\r\nto gain a broader view of how novelty and innovation occur in a farming system\r\nwas then recognized. Interactions among a range of actors including, among others,\r\ntraders, oilseed merchants and private seed companies, were facilitated within a\r\nprocess of action and reflective learning. As a result, new constraints to innovation\r\nin groundnut varieties were identified and ways of overcoming them were noted.\r\nDocumentation and analysis of the type and quality of linkages between the actors\r\nin the system helped to catalogue the process, and the platform thus created provided\r\nthe actors with an opportunity to learn from each other. The lessons and\r\nimplications are discussed."^^ . "2011" . . "40" . "3" . . "IP Publishing"^^ . . . "Outlook on Agriculture"^^ . . . "00307270" . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . "P G"^^ .
