A framework for assessing innovation capacity in non-timber forest product enterprises
Innovation is critical for the survival, growth and competitiveness of firms, particularly for non-timber forest product (NTFP)-based enterprises which are gaining economic importance and an increasingly recognized role in the bioeconomy transition. Yet, a conceptually grounded and empirically informed innovation capacity framework to guide and enhance the innovation performance of NTFP enterprises remains lacking. This study employs an abductive…
Addressing (in)formality: The perspective of baobab entrepreneurs
Business model, strategies and performance of baobab enterprises: Insight for the NTFPs industry
While non-timber forest products (NTFPs) hold global significance, their integration into global value chains remains limited. However, baobab production and marketing stand out as an exception, thus offering insights for developing potential competitive NTFPs-based industries. This study assesses the business model, and strategies of baobab enterprises and its effect on performance to inform the advancement of NTFPs commercialisation. Analysing …
Towards sustainable management of African rosewood in West and Central Africa: A scoping review of current research
Owing to decades of inordinate exploitation of African rosewood ( Pterocarpus erinaceus) and threats to its sustainability, multiple efforts by researchers to ensure its restoration and conservation have led to a proliferation of research and knowledge. The multiplicity of research and knowledge has left a gap in developing a coherent conservation and sustainable management strategy for the species because, the body of knowledge is not well-organ…
Connecting rural non-timber forest product collectors to global markets: The case of baobab (Adansonia digitata L.)
Although the importance of non-timber forest products (NTFPs) is increasingly recognised across the globe, their potential is not yet fully realised. Their often valuable nutritional composition and discovery of new possible applications offer further opportunities for innovation and rural development. Yet only few NTFPs manage the jump from traditional, informal use to global markets. Therefore, this paper assesses how baobab (Adansonia digitata…
