• African farmer-led irrigation development: re-framing agricultural policy and investment? (2017, background): “These investments involve actively engaging with (irrigation) technologies and external (support) networks as well as integrating into local and international markets, as argued by Edelman (2014) and Van der Ploeg (2014).”
