Numerous innovation platforms have been implemented to encourage the adoption of agricultural innovations and stakeholder interactions within a value chain. Yet little research has been undertaken on the design and implementation of innovation platforms focussing on issues other than market access and aiming to encourage agro-ecological intensification.
El objetivo de este trabajo fue establecer una línea base que sirva como referencia para evaluaciones posteriores del impacto del programa mencionado en el estado de Coahuila. Para obtener la información de la línea base se siguió la metodología empleada por la Organización de las Naciones Unidas para la Agricultura y la Alimentación (FAO) consistente en la aplicación de cuestionario diseñado por la misma institución y complementados por la Entidades Consultoras Estatales (ECE) y los Comités Técnicos Estatales de Evaluación (CTEC).
El objetivo del presente trabajo fue evaluar el impacto que genera la cadena de valor de la producción de destilado de agave en el Margen de Utilidad Bruta, considerando el proceso productivo del mismo, desde el mantenimiento del cultivo hasta el envase para su distribución, por lo cual se consideraron los siguientes pasos: Definir la cadena de valor de la empresa y asignar los costos y los activos correspondientes a cada proceso de la cadena.
Este documento presenta la identificación de los canales locales de comercialización del mango ataulfo en el municipio de Huehuetán Chiapas, como un acercamiento a la propuesta del diseño de un sistema de comercialización más justo y equitativo utilizando como estructura base los lineamientos del sistema producto mango y su plan rector
Increasingly, multi-stakeholder processes have been recognized as being necessary to the development of public policies seeking to promote systemic innovation in response to complex and multidimensional challenges, such as household food security, rural development, and environmental change. Saint Lucia, a small island developing state located in the Caribbean, has been grappling with a wide range of agriculture, food and nutrition security challenges with varying degrees of policy success.
This study has been produced with the overall goal to document and analyse exisiting best practices in the field of RWHI management in sub-Saharan Africa, with a special focus on Ethiopia, Kenya, Mozambique and Zimbabwe. This is meant to determine the suitability of RWHI management under multivariate biophysical and socioeconomic conditions. The best practices include specific information and know-how on the performance, cost-efficiency and impacts of RWHI technologies.
These recommendations are a compilation of 2 regional studies at sub-Saharan Africa level which focused on research and technology transfer in the field of rainwater harvesting irrigatio nmanagement on one hand (section 3), and effective policy recommendations on the use of rainwater for off-season small-scale irrigation on the other (section 4). The regional studies upon which this transnational study is based come from the analysis of national studies in Ethiopia, Kenya, Mozambique and Zimbabwe.
These advanced training materials have been produced to foster the capacity of practitioners from private, nongovernmental and public sectors on one hand, and academics and scientists on the other, to practically implement cost-efficient RWHI technologies and practices in arid and semi-arid areas. Therefore, these training materials intend to provide the required information to support proper planning, design and construction of cost-efficient RWHI technologies and practices, with special emphasis on the specific problems encountered in Ethiopia, Kenya, Mozambique and Zimbabwe.
These training materials have been produced to foster the capacity of key members of local communities to practically implement RWHI systems in a cost-efficient manner. The specific target group of these capacity building materials are local community members who are directly involved in the replication and scale-up of RWHI technologies and practices, i.e.
The CCAFS (CGIAR Research Program on Climate Change Agriculture and Food Security) annual report for 2016 describes impact through policies and partnerships, capacity development and innovative communication, breakthrough science and innovation and integrating gender and youth. It features regional highlights and publications, and lists the people involved, financial summary, and our donors.
