Involving stakeholders in the exploration of sustainability perspectives and farming system innovations: A case study from Latin America

This paper describes a study aimed at constructing scenarios based on narrative to complement models in the exploration of the long‐term future of cherry production in South Patagonia. The study is part of the European EULACIAS project on Co‐innovation of farming systems in Latin America. Our approach involves stakeholders in the analysis of present states and the identification of driving forces; finally, the impact of drivers on the farming sector is projected through the Delphi technique which enables the structured elicitation of experts’ judgement. The results describe three possible scenarios for the next 10 years: “Opening to new markets”, “Quality” and “Regional market”.
