This document summarizes findings from a research project on agricultural innovation systems in East Africa. It discusses trends in how innovation support is provided, patterns of farmer communication, and issues of inclusion and exclusion in rural communication. Key findings include: 1) Formal support systems are decentralizing but constrained by bureaucracy, while actors are playing diverse roles to support innovation. 2) Farmers actively seek to improve livelihoods through adapting technologies, driven by markets and food security. 3) Communication maps show farmers rely more on localized sources for timely information, while infrastructure challenges disrupt access. 4) There are gender differences in networks, access to information sources, and support for different crops.
