Many attempts at technological innovation have been made in the production and processing of agricultural products to meet the food needs of populations. But the objectives have not been achieved. The question we will answer in this article is to what extent Mali can put in place policies to promote the development of innovation capacities in the agri-food sector. This question is justified by the number of (insufficient) actors and the nature of (weak) interactions likely to foster the construction and/or strengthening of technological (and non-technological) innovation capacities and processes in this sector.}}
