Success and failure factors of European diversification experiences

Author: Dora Drexler

Problem: Lock-ins of crop diversification can prevent cropping systems from becoming more diversified. Identification of success and failure factors, as well as enablers and drawbacks of crop diversification initiatives are thus important for upscaling crop diversification.

Solution: If current lock-ins of crop diversification are well assessed, and workable solutions are provided, it can help farmers overcome them. Results from an expert survey about existing crop diversification experiences help focus on key issues when planning diversification strategies, taking into account the different needs of various actors, or geographical regions of Europe. This knowledge can help new diversification initiatives achieve their goals.
