| Tiivistelmä: | The issue of which societal actors have the capability and willingness to finance and organize search processes is addressed here, in order to introduce commerical innovations, over a longer time period. The long-term development of agriculture depends upon innovations within a variety of technologies, markets, organizational forms as well in the seeds themselves. This involves points of tensions between continuity and change as well as co-evolutionary processes organized around the innovation processes. This paper explores the tensions between continuity and change. The historical development of three Swedish agricultural seed organizations during the 20th century provides an empirical probe within which to address the more fundamental theoretical problems. |
