Klappentext zu „Adopting New Zealand Dairy Farm Principles in Argentina “
New Zealand dairy farm systems are internationally known fortheir competitiveness without the presence of subsidies. ThoughArgentine dairy farmers have been attracted to NZ systems for morethan 40 years and despite the fact that the NZ knowledge appears tobe beneficial to Argentine farms, NZ practices have been rarelyadopted. This seemingly fruitless effort in extending thistechnology shapes the research question of the present study: CanArgentine dairy farmers benefit from adopting New Zealand dairyfarm principles and practices? The data used in this research wascollected from seven Argentine dairy farmers, which were selectedas case studies because of their awareness of NZ dairy systems.Through interviews, farm physical and economic records, and fieldvisits to the farms, ten NZ innovations were defined. Resultsrevealed that higher levels of adoption of NZ innovations by agroup of Argentine dairy farms were associated with higher levelsof return on investment (ROI); this was mainly due to a higherutilization of the main asset and most limiting production factorof Argentine and New Zealand dairy farms, the land.
