“…Similarly, the co-operatives consider the certification of the quality as an important lever to increase value. Pea proteins, like wheat proteins, are among the leading products of the new healthy diet [84] and can therefore benefit from the current development of market niches related to vegetable proteins [85][86][87][88]. The strategy of eco-labeling [89][90][91][92][93] seems to be also a promising venue for increasing market value according to the farmers.…”

This paper focuses on the barriers and levers to the adoption of Wheat–Pea intercropping systems. More precisely, we define a hierarchy of the main barriers and levers to adoption using the Relative Importance Index (RII) method. This method allows comparison of incentives, negative (brakes) and positive (levers), for adoption at two levels of the value chain, i.e., the farmer and the co-operative level. For this comparison, we conducted two surveys: one on 71 Belgian farmers and the other on 19 French co-operatives. Our results show that the barriers of high importance for the farmers are both internal and external, while the co-operatives consider only internal barriers. That is, the farmers mainly focus on external (market access and public subsidies) and internal (lack of technical advice and extension, as well as collection and storage problems) obstacles to evaluate the intercropping system. For the co-operatives, the most important barriers are related to the sorting and storage of the mixture (internal barriers). Regarding levers, farmers and co-operatives converge on the importance of almost the same external levers, e.g., building new value chains through contracts and labeling, specific extension services for farmers and logistical support for co-operatives.

“…The environmental benefits offered by wheat-pea intercropping allow it to claim for an eco-labeling strategy, which could enable its stakeholders to display this quality guarantee as a marketing argument capable of boosting the value chain and satisfying consumer demand for agri-food products with high environmental value. The success of the Bleu Blanc Coeur value chain in highlighting the environmental and nutritional qualities linked to incorporating flax should provide a good practical example of constructing quality value chains capable of federating the different stakeholders (upstream and downstream actors, private R&D centers, public organizations, and environmental and consumer associations [125]).…”

Beyond the ecosystem benefits of diversification through wheat–pea intercropping, this review analyzes the barriers and levers to its adoption and diffusion. The present review shows that structuring the value chain around the products of this innovative cropping system faces a set of technical (i.e., varietal selection, phytosanitary issue control, crop management sequence, collection management, and storage), economic (i.e., cost, price, market opportunities, and contracting), and public policy (i.e., subsidies for ecosystem services provided by intercropping) obstacles that contribute to its slow adoption and dissemination in Europe. However, the value chain resulting from the wheat–pea intercropping system has levers to be exploited at all levels, particularly in terms of its competitive advantages, ecosystem benefits, and superior product quality. The results of this review help to identify priorities that actors of the value chain can address to better focus their efforts on significant problems and solutions that can accelerate the adoption and dissemination of this agroecological system.
