How about the conversion of cast iron plows to steel plows? When the farmers brought their cast iron plows from the eastern US to the midwest, the plows didn't work well because of the different soil types. Deere developed the steel plow that kept itself clean and properly rolled the soil over, proving that need is the mother of invention. There are several articles on the internet concerning this topic.
