Le Programme d’appui au développement des filières agricoles (PADFA) a pour objectif d’améliorer les activités après-récolte (conditionnement, stockage, transformation et commercialisation) dans les filières du riz, des légumes et de la mangue en Côte d'Ivoire. Cette brochure réunit les témoignages de petits producteurs ayant participé au programme et dont les cultyures étaient affectés par les effets des changements climatiques et les insectes.
China is characterized as ‘a large country with many smallholder farmers’ whose participation in modern agriculture is key to the country’s modern agriculture development. Promoting smallholder farmers’ adoption of modern agricultural production technology is one effective way to improve the capabilities of smallholder farmers. This paper aims to explore the impact of Internet use on the adoption of agricultural production technology by smallholder farmers based on a survey of 1 449 smallholders across 14 provinces in China.
This paper discusses how adapting food production systems to respond to consumer demand for healthier diets is a major opportunity to mitigate and adapt to climate change in agro-rural economies. It also addresses how existing technological solutions for climate change mitigation and adaptation need to create more balance between the production and consumption tiers of agrifood systems. Policy dialogue includes managing trade-offs between different sector and stakeholder interests and exploring synergies rather than focusing on exclusivity and competition.
El Proyecto "Desarrollo de capacidades para los sistemas de innovación agrícola: ampliación del marco común de la Plataforma de Agricultura Tropical" (en resumen, Proyecto TAP-AIS) es implementado por la Organización de las Naciones Unidas para la Alimentación y la Agricultura (FAO) en países de África (Burkina Faso, Malawi, Eritrea, Ruanda, Senegal), América Latina (Colombia), Asia y el Pacífico (Camboya, Lao PDR, Pakistán), con el objetivo estratégico de contribuir al fortalecimiento de capacidades para fomentar, reconocer y fortalecer la innovación rural en el contexto de la transformaci
China will be confronted with many challenges in the years to come, including achieving carbon neutrality, ensuring environmental sustainability, protecting vulnerable people, and ensuring a smooth transition from smallholder to modern agriculture. This policy note discusses how China could further advance its food and agricultural development model, making it greener, more sustainable, and more inclusive.
La transition agroécologique requiert de transformer la manière d’accompagner les agriculteurs dans leurs changements de pratiques. Les champs-écoles sont des dispositifs participatifs pertinents pour cela, car ils accroissent les capacités des agriculteurs à expérimenter, à produire des connaissances et à construire eux-mêmes des innovations. Il est toutefois nécessaire de veiller à la qualité de mise en œuvre de ces dispositifs, ce qui a des implications pour les acteurs de la recherche et du développement.
El presente documento sistematiza los principales hallazgos de la Mesa de Articulación Interinstitucional para el fortalecimiento del sistema territorial de innovación del sector lechero en Boyacá (Colombia), llevada a cabo en la ciudad de Tunja el 12 de mayo de 2022. Este espacio de construcción colectiva que contó con la participación de 50 delegados de la institucionalidad pública, organizaciones de productores, academia y empresas privadas, tuvo como objetivo conocer la oferta de las instituciones del departamento y su agenda 2022 en materia de innovación.
Global Open Data for Agriculture and Nutrition (GODAN) and The Haller Foundation joined forces in 2016 when the UK based charity released version one of the Haller Farmers App.
The publication looks at innovations happening at all stages of the food value chain: from production to manufacturing and retailing. This also includes the extended value chain, for example input supply, financial services and agribusiness support services. Yields are improving and primary production is becoming more resilient as a result of digital technologies such as precision agriculture, agricultural drones, and digital farming services and marketplaces; and novel business models such as plant factories, crowdsourcing for farmers.
Digitalization and internet use are transforming every aspect of our lives. Digital technologies are profoundly changing how we grow food, pack it, transport it and even shop for food. Digitalization and use of digital data, applications, and platforms are opening new possibilities for developing and restructuring the agrifood system. Digital agriculture is turning to digitalizing agrifood, rural economy, and rural societies. This report introduces the FAO Digital Village Initiative, which aims to facilitate through knowledge and information.
