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.
El objetivo general de la guía es generar las competencias necesarias para que los técnicos del MIDA puedan formular proyectos con base en los principios de la planificación estratégica y de la gestión por resultados.

“Before, people were not really interested” says Lionel Ozorio, president of the ATESCATEL seed cooperative, “but the CDAIS project has helped to bring people together and now we see much more buy-in.” This innovation partnership is building key functional capacities amongst producer associations, and now, bringing other stakeholders onboard to help improve nutritional security through innovative approaches in promoting a new bean variety with increased production potential and nutritional content.
From the Maya to modern times, beekeeping has been a much respected rural activity in Guatemala. Then in recent years, production increased and a national association was formed. But internal disagreements soon saw a fall in production and sales. Then thanks to CDAIS, producers across the country asked for and were given, a new space to gather. And there they rediscovered their common interests and goals, and have re-established their original organization, to excellent effect.
The ‘dry corridor’ is a region of guatemala that covers part of the departments of Baja Verapaz, Zacapa, El Progreso, Jalapa, Chiquimula, Jutiapa and Santa Rosa.
