Abstract: The spectacular development of aquaculture is currently faced with the challenge of sustainability. An approach drawing on the different types of eco-innovation is used here to address the new production systems resulting from ecological intensification. The objective is to characterise some of the factors determining change towards ecological intensification in the case of pond fish farming in France and Brazil. A literature review revealed three eco-innovation profiles: (i) discharge control and input substitution; (ii) organizational and institutional changes in production systems and (iii) integration of ecosystem services. These profiles were compared with the typology of pond fish farmers developed from surveys undertaken in France (Brenne and Lorraine) and in Brazil (the Santa Catarina region in the Itajai Higher Valley and in Chapeco). The three identified groups represent different trajectories for the appropriation of eco-innovations. These trajectories depend on technical, informational and organisational learning as well as on the level of producer information and on the institutional context.
