Resumen
Descripción
Many countries are using innovation
funds in the agricultural sector to support innovators and
their links to public institutions, private entrepreneurs,
and other actors, such as groups of rural producers. These
funds create platforms for innovative activity by providing
incentives for quality and collaboration. This report
synthesizes experience with the two main innovation funds
that the World Bank has used to fund agricultural
innovation, competitive research grants and matching grants,
and offers lessons and guidelines for designing and
implementing them. Although the report draws extensively on
experience with World Bank investments, the lessons are
relevant in other contexts. The practical aspects of
designing and implementing successful grant schemes are
emphasized throughout.
