“…Others focus on ways to create synergy between FK and scientific knowledge (Briggs et al, 1998;Girard and Navarrete, 2005). We also find some articles on modeling that attempt to integrate FK into an artifact with a scientific knowledge basis like, for example, "integrating farmer knowledge, precision agriculture tools and crop simulation modelling to evaluate management options for poor-performing patches" (Oliver et al, 2010).…”

PurposeAt the science-society boundary, farmers' knowledge (FK) is emphasized today as a way of designing more sustainable agricultural systems. Our objective was to build a review of innovation processes including FK from the viewpoint of knowledge management. Design/methodology/approachWe performed a comprehensive and qualitative analysis of 273 articles drawn from the Web of Science. FindingsWe built four KM strategies on the basis of the objectives of these papers, the arguments used to justify the study of FK and their position regarding this knowledge: (1) Assessing FK to improve it;(2) Documenting FK to capitalize or legitimize it in development processes; (3) Using FK as a resource for innovation; and (4) Facilitating the sharing of sources of knowledge. Research limitations/implicationsWe drew up research perspectives for each of them, some of which were related to the KM community and some of which extended the focus on political, legal or sociological aspects of knowledge production. Practical implicationsOur four categories of KM strategies revealed the importance of legitimization processes of practitioners' knowledge at science-society boundaries, whereas such processes are often neglected by classical KM methodologies. Social implicationsOur work questions the category of "practitioners' knowledge", stressing the need to go beyond the dichotomy between scientific and empirical knowledge. Originality/valueEven if FK has been used since the 1970s to promote more endogenous innovation processes as opposed to classical science-driven innovation processes, no review has yet been done of the use of FK in the development of agricultural systems.

“…All these reasons should induce revision of the most common agronomic knowledge for an effective revaluation of the crop. Synergy between the empirical knowledge of producers and scientific knowledge is able to generate new agronomic knowledge, especially in poorly-known crops, such as saffron, in which technical management represents a major hindrance to development (Girard and Navarrete, 2005).…”

“…1 Individual parametrization of the Bayesian Network. Cards with imagery for each node and state of the network facilitates the conditional probability elicitation by participants of knowledge that are important to take into account in agricultural innovation (Girard and Navarrete 2005). Besides, both producers represent the two ends of a spectrum regarding orchardists' protection strategy at the farm level.…”

Habitat management is increasingly considered as a promising approach to favor the ecosystem service of biological control by enhancing natural enemies. However, habitat management, whether at local or landscape scale, remains very uncertain for farmers. Interactions between ecological processes and agricultural practices are indeed uncertain and site-specific, which makes implementation difficult. Thus, prospecting innovations based on habitat management may benefit from integrating local stakeholders and their knowledge. Our objective is to explore with both local and scientific stakeholders how they perceive agricultural practices, ecological processes, and services related to biological pest control and habitat management. We conducted a participatory Bayesian Network modeling approach with five stakeholders in Southwest France around apple orchard cultivation. We co-constructed such Bayesian Networks based on participants' knowledge. We explored scenarios favoring natural enemies and habitat manipulation with each participant's Bayesian Network. We compared how different stakeholders perceive the impact of each scenario on the biological control ecosystem service. Our results indicate that a landscape with a high proportion of seminatural habitats does not translate into significant biological control for most participants even though some stakeholders perceive a significant impact on generalist predators' activity within orchards. For these local stakeholders, habitat management at the orchard level such as inter-row vegetation seems currently more promising than at the landscape scale. Here, we show for the first time that the use of Bayesian modeling in a participatory manner can give precious insights into the most promising perspectives on habitat management at different scales. These different local perspectives suggest in particular that further dialogue between ecologists and local stakeholders should be sought about inter-row habitat management as the most promising practice to foster biological pest control and other ecosystem services.
