Innovation in the case study
Technical and radical innovation is occurring: “innovation by the users, with the farmer in the centre”.
Innovation which is connected to end-users’ needs for agricultural equipment at the beginning and more widely afterwards. Innovation starts from the farmer, not from the engineer or technician.
Social (political) innovation is expected: “changing agricultural development”. This involves the political ambition of radically transforming agriculture and agricultural development.
Organisational innovation is rising: “internal rules to regulate the work of employees”.
Due to the intensity of the commitment expected by the managers and the high turnover of employees, they decided to write a cooperative agreement to specify the rules applicable to them, e.g. employment and working conditions as well as social guarantees.
