The social construction of agricultural futures has important governance implications described by this chapter. The central arguments advanced, building on the analysis is that critical reflection on, open communication of, the nature and incompleteness of knowledge, inclusive and appropriate governance of climate change adaptation in African agriculture. Chapter also challenges and opportunities in the governance of these multiple futures. Within internationally supported biosafety regulation capacity-building efforts, and somewhat in contradiction to the initial emphasis of the Cartagena Protocol on Biosafety, this discourse of scientific evidence-based policy has been particularly influential in Kenya Smallholder farming systems. Modelling of future maize productivity can produce policy relevant information that can make important contributions to improving preparedness and the quality of decisions about narratives of change. The discussion presented above reflects on the findings from the case studies presented in this book and draws lessons from a lateral look across their commonalities.
