摘要

Agroecology has emerged as a credible approach to achieving sustainable and resilient agrifood systems. But the role for disruptive agricultural technologies within agroecology remains contentious. This paper examines the potential congruence for technology-driven and agroecology-driven approaches to agricultural development. We examine two case studies from east Africa—one focused on user-centered digital technology in Ethiopia and the second on new breeding techniques in Uganda.
