INTERPAKS, Minneapolis, MN: Department of Agricultural and Applied Economics, University of Minnesota, June 1973. (staff paper P73-16). 48 p., The design of a successful agricultural development strategy involves a unique combination of technical and institutional change. It involves technical innovations capable of generating substantial new income flows. It also involves an adaptive response on the part of cultural, political, and economic institutions to realize the growth potential opened up by the new technical opportunities. This paper attempts to show how the addition of an induces innovation perspective can enrich our understanding of the process of technology transfer in agricultural development. It also attempts to extend the induced innovation perspective to the process of institutional transfer.
