Decision making in agriculture increasingly relies on software, for ex-ample to gather important information or to weight alternatives. Information sys-tems innovation in agriculture is a challenging and very active area. Existing soft-ware products, frequently implemented as web applications, are found to lack functionality, for example to support collaboration. Augmenting the web is a widely adopted technique for enhancing existing applications with new features which are not available out-of-the-shelf. Design thinking has proven to be an ef-fective tool to support innovation on many domains. Collaboration Engineering is an effective means to reuse design experience of collaboration strategies. This work presents an approach to involve end-users in enhancing exiting web soft-ware to produce incremental innovations. The approach relies on Design Think-ing, Web Augmentation and Collaboration Engineering. The approach was suc-cessfully tried in a case study letting end-users add collaboration support to a system that did not provide it.
