Opis (eng)

Abstract: The aim of the paper is to present the status and innovation potential in the agriculture of developing countries. The purpose of innovations in agriculture in developing countries is to increase food production, and recently, to produce safe food. Agricultural innovations should imply the transition from pure exploitation of natural resources to technological innovation, which would contribute to the production of quality products, while preserving resources for production (sustainable intensification). The use of agricultural innovations in developing countries has low intensity, although it began about 4 decades ago. Bureaucratic barriers, start-up costs, lack of abilities, financing and wrong policies are the main barriers to innovation in developing countries. Developing countries have the potential to innovate their production technologies in agriculture, but they are mainly dependent on modern technologies from the developed countries. Principally, developing countries should improve the performance of their educational systems, science and technology, institutions, increase financial and human investments for establishing local technological possibilities and learn from the experience of other innovative regions. Although the majority of developing countries have achieved significant progress in agricultural innovations, this is still not satisfactory.
