Impacts pathways assessment of agricultural research applied on a phosphate fertilization project for rainfed rice in Madagascar. Population growth in developing countries sometimes imposes the need to increase agricultural production. A project on phosphate fertilization for rainfed rice in Madagascar was carried out in a participatory way between research actors and farmers to increase yield. However, adoption of the innovation was quickly abandoned by farmers. The ImpresS approach (Impact of Research in the South) was used on this project to assess its impacts by developing a model that meets the conditions for adopting the innovation. Despite the early abandonment of the target fertilizer (mineral phosphorus), the ImpresS approach made it possible to identify processes that led to impacts. The results identify an innovation model in the form of interaction or coproducing of knowledge between the different actors. This interaction builds the capacity of all project stakeholders to change practices or innovate. Indeed, capacity building allows all involved actors to acquire impacts that are new technical and functional capacities. It is deduced from this collective reflections for the development of future projects including a “culture of impact” allowing a better adoption of innovation brought by research.
