dc.descriptionThis study analyses the efficiency and effectiveness of plant breeding in Uruguay in an innovation systems framework by treating the plant breeding system (PBS) as a subsystem of a larger and evolving agricultural innovation system (AIS) in Uruguay. The quality and efficiency of plant breeding activities per se are converted into impacts through complementary (or vertically integrated) activities of policy-makers, agronomists, seed specialists, formal and informal seed producers and growers. All of this takes place in an institutional and policy environment that determines the incentives for farmers to demand improved cultivars and the type of seed system that ensures their availability.
