“…Some have acknowledged the role of social networks on farmers' vulnerability and adaptive capacity (Ali & Erestein, 2017;Rhiney et al, 2015) and mapped the role of value chain information networks on adaptation decision outcomes (Nidumolu, Lim-Camacho, Gaillard, Hayman, & Howden, 2018). Similarly, other studies have described the interdependencies of adaptation actions between value chain actors (Crick, Gannon, Diop, & Sow, 2018;Fleming et al, 2014;Lim-Camacho et al, 2015;Lim-Camacho et al, 2016), as well as the role of power dependencies articulated through network relations on adaptive behaviours (Benedikter et al, 2013). These studies have helped conceptualise adaptive behaviour within the context of value chains as a system of interactions and interdependencies working towards adaptation goals (e.g., Lim-Camacho et al, 2017), or as systems of linked communities of practice combining their capabilities to foster innovation (Lowitt, Hickey, Ganpat, & Phillip, 2015).…”
