La información y el conocimiento son los elementos esenciales para que las innovaciones ocurran. Trabajan en pareja pero no son lo mismo. Si los confundimos al momento de aprovecharlos, fracasaremos. Para propiciar cambios actitudinales no solo hay que informar, también debemos abonar el “almacigo” para que el conocimiento “germine”. ¿En que difieren? ¿Cómo podemos hacer para que operen en sinergia? Esta preguntas son la esencia del artículo.
Este trabajo aborda la problemática de la visión reduccionista de la comunicación en el Instituto Nacional de Tecnología Agropecuaria (INTA) de la provincia de Catamarca, Argentina. A raíz de reconocer el predominio y la centralidad de la dimensión informativa en las acciones institucionales, (ver apartado 4), se pretende diseñar una estrategia de comunicación organizacional más proactiva a los objetivos del INTA. La finalidad consiste en reconfigurar los vínculos intersubjetivos para propiciar situaciones de comunicación desde la dimensión comunicacional.
Esta tesis se propone investigar la realización de las publicaciones escritas – Noticias y Comentarios- que se elaboran en la Estación Experimental Agropecuaria Mercedes –EEA-.
Esta tesis plantea un análisis comparativo, donde la comunicación estratégica aporta un enfoque multidimensional y situacional, tomando como caso de análisis la interacción en una Estación Experimental del Instituto Nacional de Tecnología Agropecuaria (INTA), organización del estado argentino con base tecnológica. Esta investigación combina la revisión bibliográfica, el análisis documental, herramientas etnográficas, y el análisis comunicacional para acercarse al fenómeno.
This paper has been prepared under the guidelines provided by the TAP Secretariat at the FAO, as a contribution to the G20 initiative TAP, which includes near 40 partners and is facilitated by FAO. Its purpose is to provide a Regional synthesis report on capacity needs assessment for agricultural innovation, with capacity gaps identified and analyzed, including recommendations to strengthen agricultural innovation systems (AIS) and draft policy recommendations to address the capacity gaps.
The purpose of this paper is to map some elements that can contribute to an IFAD strategy to stimulate and support pro-poor innovations. It is an initial or exploratory document that hopefully will add to an ongoing and necessary debate, and is not intended as a final position paper. The document is organized as follows.
This presentation argues the need of green growth in agriculture, analyzes features of the innovation systems and ends with some policies practices. The presentation has been prepared for "Innovation and Modernising the Rural Economy", OECD’s 8th Rural Development Policy Conference, 3-5 October 2012 (Krasnoyarsk, Russian Federation).
African agriculture is currently at a crossroads, at which persistent food shortages are compounded by threats from climate change. But, as this book argues, Africa can feed itself in a generation and help contribute to global food security. To achieve this Africa has to define agriculture as a force in economic growth by: advancing scientific and technological research; investing in infrastructure; fostering higher technical training; and creating regional markets.
The report specifically analyses the NIS in Peru and Colombia in the coffee and dairy sectors due to their economic importance for both countries and the large percentage of small producers in these sectors. In order to analyse the NIS, we have utilised an innovations systems approach to form the analytical framework. This framework focuses on four main areas – understanding the actors in the NIS, their roles and attitudes, the patterns of interaction of these actors, and the enabling environment with a focus on small producer inclusion.
Emilio Ruz, executive secretary of the Cooperative Programme for Agri-food and Agroindustrial Technological Development of the Southern Cone (PROCISUR), presented the PROCISUR’s frame-work of innovation management at the 3rd GFRAS Annual Meeting, "The Role of Rural Advisory Services in Agricultural Innovation Systems", 26-28 September 2012, Philippines. His presentation has been prepared with Julio C. Catullo,
Extension Group Coordinator of PROCISUR.
