Abstract
A shift to organic farming in the agricultural sector is a process of building a new system where on the one hand, agro-innovations are generated and on the other, farmers adopt and use them instead of agrochemical materials for sustainability. This study examines local governance (state-led versus community-led modes) and spatial conditions (urban fringe versus rural areas) of four adoption modes of organic farming in the agricultural sector. Local governance affects the ways of mobilizing resources for the diffusion of innovation, while spatial location represents available regional resources. A comparative case study using qualitative semi-structured interviews and national statistics in four Korean agricultural regions was conducted to understand the four adoption modes along two dimensions. The results confirm the usefulness of the typology in describing heterogeneous adoption modes and the complementary effect between governance and spatial location.
