Abstract

Integrated dairy sheep system in Castilla La Mancha (Spain) suffers from a crisis based on lack of profitability. Technological innovation is a key factor to increase farm's viability. It requires the identification of the appropriate technologies to develop, later on, a set of technological indicators associated to results that support the decision-making process. The objectives of this research were: First, the selection of innovations and its grouping in a technological innovation set. Second, assess the relationship with other indicators; mainly technological and structural, productive and economic performance data set.
