Dairy, Entrepreneurial ecosystem, Future, Scenario, Factor, PeriodAbstract
The study on entrepreneurial ecosystems is gaining popularity; and during the recent times, the significance of the same is also felt in primary production sectors. Entrepreneurial ecosystems are dynamic and change over a period of time, with changes in the actors and factors contributing to it; and their roles and functions. The present study was undertaken to forecast the future of dairy entrepreneurial ecosystem for a short term, medium term and long term in the state of Kerala (India). Delphi survey was used to project the future into conceivable scenarios. Four likely scenarios were estimated for each period based on the important driving factors and their probability of occurrence of change. The constant factor taken to decide the scenario axis for the three periods was ‘dairy entrepreneurial growth’; while for the short term, the second contributing factor was ‘support services’; for medium term it was ‘cooperative sector’; and for the long term, it was ‘advanced technology’. The study presented the narration of the scenarios which can be utilized by policy makers and planners to design in advance the appropriate modifications and interventions to develop dairy entrepreneurship; and thereby create a desirable dairy entrepreneurial ecosystem for the state in the future.
