Este volante muestra los beneficios esperados al rehabilitar el suelo y algunas recomendaciones para realizar el subsuelo.
En el municipio de Tepalcingo, en el estado de Morelos, los productores suelen fertilizar los campos de maíz únicamente con nitrógeno y fósforo, lo cual podría limitar su producción. Esto es ocasionado por la falta de un análisis de suelo. Por otro lado la información, sobre fechas y densidades de siembra optimas al igual que la identificación de los mejores híbridos, esta limitando los rendimientos de la región.
Este folleto explica los principios de la agricultura de conservación, una práctica agrícola sostenible y innovadora.
Este folleto trata de tipos de red de innovación, de sus definición y funcionamiento.
Este folleto explica que es el hub: la infraestructura fisica del hub consiste en un sistema de investigación (plataformas de investigación), implementación (módulos demostrativos) y difusión (áreas de extensión). Esta infraestructura forma la base para la construcción de una red de actores de la cadena agrícola - agricultores, técnicos, científicos, centros de investigación, iniciativa privada, prensa y funcionarios públicos, entre otros- hacia el objetivo en común, innovación en el sistema de producción para llegar a un sistema más sustentable, productivo y rentable.
This 2016 report provides an economic overview of the Canadian agriculture and agri-food system using the most recent data available. It is meant to be a multi-purpose reference document that presents: • the agriculture and agri-food system in the context of the Canadian economy and international markets; and, • a snapshot of the composition and performance of the agriculture and agri-food system as it evolves in response to challenges, opportunities and market developments. The report begins with a special feature section on natural resource use and the environment.
The European Innovation Partnership for agricultural productivity and sustainability (EIP-AGRI), which can be perceived as a platform based on interaction among farmers, researchers, and advisors/extensionists, represents a useful tool for a better understanding of applied innovation processes.
This book represents the proceedings of the FAO international technical conference dedicated to Agricultural Biotechnologies in Developing Countries (ABDC-10) that took place in Guadalajara, Mexico on 1-4 March 2010. A major objective of the conference was to take stock of the application of biotechnologies across the different food and agricultural sectors in developing countries, in order to learn from the past and to identify options for the future to face the challenges of food insecurity, climate change and natural resource degradation.
This report provides a synthesis of all findings and information generated through a “stocktaking” process that involved a desk study of Prolinnova documents and evaluation reports, a questionnaire to 40 staff members of international organizations in agricultural research and development (ARD), self-assessment by the Country Platforms (CPs) and backstopping visits to five CPs. In 2014, the Prolinnova network saw a need to re-strategise in a changing context, and started this process by reviewing the activities it had undertaken and assessing its own functioning.
This study identifies entry points for innovation for sustainable intensification of agricultural systems. An agricultural innovation systems approach is used to provide a holistic image of (relations between) constraints faced by different stakeholder groups, the dimensions and causes of these constraints, and intervention levels, timeframes and types of innovations needed. The authors aim at showing that constraints for sustainable intensification of agricultural systems are mainly of economic and institutional nature.
