have used the transition management lens to explore sustainability transitions in agriculture,
including both SOLINSA and FarmPath. Agricultural heterogeneity throws up an enormous
challenge to the implementation of a transition management approach. There is no
dominant and distinctive regime of production which is normally the target of attention in
transition studies. Farms and farmers are highly differentiated and probably becoming more
so. But particular regions may be more or less dominated by a single regime. And it
remains highly likely that regionally specific sustainability strategies for the farm and rural
sector more generally, can be beneficially explored through the transition management lens.
We follow up the emphasis on exploring new niches and their scope for up-scaling into
new regimes in different parts of Europe in the core of this topic.
