“…Researchers in the field of economics or management more and more often use achievements of their own and other disciplines (e.g., sociology or psychology) to analyze the importance of SR for economic activities, including organizational entrepreneurship.

“…This can be done by policymakers engaging with farming organisations, through the organisation of information events and by aiding organisations such as the Land Mobility Service that facilitate land mobility (Macra na Feirme, 2019). Additionally, the promotion of joint farm ventures (JFVs) such as cooperatives, farm partnerships, share farming and contract rearing must be maintained (Cush & Macken-Walsh, 2016).…”
