AB  - This article analyses the emergence and dynamics of innovation in micro-organism-based bio-inputs in Cambodia, in a context marked by intense agricultural intensification and growing dependence on chemical inputs. It uses a framework for analysing the innovation system through a review of the literature, the study of two pioneering cases, 48 semi-structured interviews and three participatory workshops to examine the historical trajectories, actors, barriers and levers of the devel-opment of these bio-inputs. The results show that innovation remains limited by technical constraints (perceived low effi-ciency, variable quality, lack of local resources, insufficient infrastructure), institutional constraints (lack of support policies, regulations), economic constraints (narrow markets, high costs) and social constraints (low demand, practices oriented towards chemical inputs). This combination forms a vicious circle that hinders the growth of bio-inputs. However, local initiatives – agricultural cooperatives, NGOs, researchers – reveal an emerging ecosystem around community bio-factory models and participatory approaches. Forward-looking workshops document development trajectories for two biofertilisers (compost/bokashi and EM). They highlight the importance of capacity building, quality improvement, certification, network-ing and public support.
