Esta presentación muestra como la historieta puede ser un medio de divulgación del conocimiento agrícola para los productores.
Este volante muestra cinco etapas para la modernizacion sustentable de la agricultura.
La presentación es dirigida a productores y grupos de personas, que realizan actividades agrícolas, pecuarias, acuícolas y pesqueras en zonas rurales y periurbanas. El documento da recomendaciones para facilitar el acceso de los productores familiares al acompañamiento técnico y trata de modelos de extensión con mayor impacto en el desarrollo de la Agricultura Familiar.
PESA focaliza sus acciones en “Apoyar a las Unidades de Producción Familiar en localidades rurales de alta y muy alta marginación, para incrementar los niveles de producción y productividad de sus actividades agropecuarias, acuícolas y pesqueras…”.
This presentation bring successful examples of Sustainable intensification of maize-legume cropping systems for food security in eastern and southern Africa (SIMLESA): Gender Equitable Benefits through Agricultural Innovation Platforms (AIPs) in Rwanda, considerations of gender in the formal maize seed sector in Uganda and Capacity Building initiatives
Inclusive innovation is the means by which new goods and services are developed for and/or by the billions living on lowest incomes. Although a topic of increasing interest, it has been relatively under-researched and under-conceptualised to date. This article studies arguably the most successful new technology to reach low-income groups: the mobile phone, focusing specifically on its diffusion in Kenya. Systems of innovation are shown to be an appropriate frame for conceptualisation of inclusive innovation.
Scaling represents successful diffusion that ensures sizeable impact and earnings from information and communication technology (ICT) innovations in emerging markets. Practice can still be shaped by dualistic views-innovation vs diffusion, pilot vs scale-up, lead firm vs other actors, technical vs social. Synthesising the literature that challenges these dualities, this paper creates a systemic perspective that is particularly appropriate for scaling of ICT to bottom-of-the-pyramid (BoP) markets.
Este folleto explica los principios de la agricultura de conservación, una práctica agrícola sostenible y innovadora.
In Sub-Saharan Africa, the rapidly evolving COVID-19, increasing population growth, and exponential expansion in demand for agricultural commodities are putting pressure on available resources, thereby posing immense challenges to the region’s capacity to achieve nutritional security related to United Nations Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs).
This poster analyzes the status, challenges and opportunities of the Kyeni local innovation platform that was put up to sustainably evaluate, disseminate and hasten adoption of CA technologies involving maize/ legume cropping systems in eastern Kenya. Establishment and maintenance of IPs is one of the action oriented research approaches for technology transfer in the ACIAR funded Sustainable Intensification of Maize-Legume Cropping Systems for Food Security in Eastern and Southern Africa (SIMLESA) project such as Kyeni Local Innovation Platform.
