Publication of July 31st 2009 Research articleProduction systemsHow agricultural research shapes a technological regime that develops genetic engineering but locks out agroecological innovationsThis paper shows how the concepts of technological paradigms and trajectories can help analyse the agricultural science and technology landscape and dynamics. Genetic engineering and agroecology can be usefully analysed as two different technological paradigms.InnovationPathway dependancyLock-insAgroecology
Publication of January 1st 2008 Research articleProduction systemsWhy are ecological wheat cultivars slow to develop? A ‘lock-in’ case studyThis article identifies twelve factors impeding wider adoption of multi-resistant cultivars. These factors explain why current wheat-cropping systems are maintained in a ‘pesticide lock-in’ situation.Cereals sectorInnovationBelgiumWalloniaPathway dependancyLock-insAgroecology
