The term 'Integrated Agricultural Research for Development (IAR4D),' first coined in 2003, acknowledges the complexity of the agricultural system and the need to bring together not only different related research disciplines but also multiple actors (private sector, public sector, producer organisation and policymakers) to find joint solutions to the challenges of agricultural innovation. The book is produced in response traces the evolution of the concept back to its roots in an impressive range of theories and approaches from diverse disciplines, such as constructivism, participatory acti
This study was set out to describe the operation of the agricultural multi-stakeholder platforms and assess the impact of their activities on the production and revenue of the different beneficiaries. The required data was collected from 285 stakeholders using structured questionnaires. The econometric approach based on the Local Average Treatment effect (LATE) was used to identify the impact of the participation in the MSP activities on the revenue and yield of the producers
The purpose of this study was to analyse the demand for mechanized agricultural services in the cotton-growing area of western Burkina Faso. This study seeks to: Identify the needs for mechanized agricultural services (type, significance); Determine the willingness of farmers to pay for the services; Propose a mechanism for developing local farm mechanization services.
The workshop objectives were to harmonize understanding of what innovation platforms (InP) are, why they are necessary, why stakeholders should promote formation of County InPs and development of a tentative action plan for each county. The workshop participants comprised diverse county agricultural sector stakeholders in Bungoma and Nakuru and in Kwale including representatives from three national level institutions.
Good agricultural practices (GAPs) are an indispensable tool for risk management due to the close relationship between agriculture and climate, as well as the climate variability currently being experienced. The implementation of these tools, however, involves fostering innovation, increasing knowledge and giving stakeholders, small producers in particular, a holistic view, so that they may improve their production systems, increase their resilience, and ensure their sustainability.
La metodología busca identificar las debilidades a lo largo de las cadenas agroalimentarias que llevan a la pérdida de alimentos (pérdidas de poscosecha) y, a su vez, elaborar propuestas para mejorar la eficiencia de dichas cadenas a partir de la identificación y la formulación de soluciones. La aplicación de esta metodología por los diferentes actores es un primer paso para la reducción de pérdidas de alimentos
Este documento dentifica y tipifica diferentes estrategias y mecanismos innovadores que han sido aplicados en distintos escenarios para aumentar la cobertura y facilitar el acceso de los agricultores familiares a esos servicios, los que pueden servir de referencia para otras iniciativas que se quieran impulsar en ese sentido, bien sea para mejorar la calidad y eficiencia, o para aumentar la oferta de esos servicios.
