文摘

We examine public and private R&E roles through two precision farming case studies. Successful complex agricultural innovations require a collaborative R&E approach. Collaboration differs from farm to national and global scales. A threshold scale is required before the commercial sector can operate effectively. Public, private and industry R&E roles are highly fluid within technological innovation systems.
