bibo:abstract "In spite of the availability of several improved agricultural technologies\r\ngenerated by the research system in Ethiopia over the last four decades, adoption of\r\nthese innovations by smallholder farmers has been very low. This has led to\r\nstagnation of agricultural productivity and low crop yields, exposing the country to\r\nrecurrent food shortfalls and national food insecurity. The old approach to\r\nagricultural research emphasized developing new technologies mainly through onstation\r\nresearch that were then supposed to reach farmers through the public-sector\r\nextension system. The Ethiopian Institute of Agricultural Research (EIAR) has in\r\nrecent years introduced a shift in agricultural research for development, which is\r\nbased on the innovation systems approach that involved cultivating partnerships\r\nwith several actors along the value chain, especially farmers, farmers’ cooperatives\r\nand input suppliers. This paper presents the methodology used to facilitate\r\nagricultural innovations and the diffusion of new technologies and illustrates the\r\noutcomes of this initiative with regard to technology adoption, productivity growth\r\nand the market orientation of production. The authors use examples from\r\nexperiences in scaling up three grain legumes. Compared to the three-year baseline\r\naverage (2003–05), crop output increased nationally by 89%, 85% and 97% in\r\n2008 for common bean, chickpea and lentil respectively. Nationally, 53–59% of the\r\noutput growth is attributable to yield growth due to technological change, while the\r\nbalance is due to area expansion. These results affirm that the new approach has led\r\nto accelerated adoption of new and high-yielding or low-risk varieties."^^xsd:string;
