Abstract

The irrigation innovationsin Israel hasprimarily contributed to the great increment in the value of produce grown by local farmers over the last65 years.Israel is a dry-land nation. Lack of water is always a tricky problem,but many innovative ideasgenerated by the people in Israel are capable of providing enough water for a growing population. Using the multi-level perspective (MLP) to analyze the irrigation innovations of this country helps to find the institutions, drivers, policies and changes of local people’s values behind the astonishing surge in agricultural productivity.In particular, the three levels of the MLP, namely the niche level, the regime level and the landscape level, are thoroughly analyzed to accommodate the complexity of thekey transition processes of the irrigation innovations in Israel. The innovative irrigation technologies originated in Israel are beneficial to the food security across the globe, but the factors limiting the adoption of these technologies should be considered in advance to avoid the possible failure of the uptake in other countries.
