This brief discuss about how the sustainability of digital agribusiness projects can be enhanced through three main steps: 1) plan for sustainability in the initial project design, 2) monitor sustainability readiness throughout the life-cycle of the project, and 3) verify that indicators of sustainability have been achieved during the project close-off process
This brief introduces a set of business-plan challenges faced by digital agribusiness start-ups in ACP countries and promising ways to overcome them. Challenges covered include access to finance, knowing the customer base, sourcing data, access to technical, business and management skills and support, the policy environment, what farmers need, languages and formats, trust, and data ownership and privacy
The proposit of this brief was to look across several projects and experiences in digital agriculture and synthesize insights and lessons on what really works for nextgeneration agriculture and rural development practice and policies. The information in this brief is based on interviews held during this workshop with twelve entrepreneurs working in digital innovations for agriculture
This poster has been developed by the International Institute of Tropical Agriculture (IITA) and Wageningen University (WUR) under the CGIAR research program on Roots Tubers and Banana (RTB) and describes shortly the science-based methods to identify and overcome bottlenecks for scaling of innovation. It breaks down innovation packages and analyses its individual technological, policy, market and partnership components along a 9-Level Scaling Readiness Ladder science-based methods to identify and overcome bottlenecks for scaling of innovation
La presente investigación tiene como objetivo determinar los factores mercadológicos que influyen en la producción y venta de las flores exóticas: hawaiana roja, hawaiana rosa e iris roja, que se cosechan en el Ejido Raymundo Enríquez en Tapachula, Chiapas. Se empleó el método de estudio de caso. El diseño de la investigación correspondió a un enfoque cualitativo, a un diseño no experimental y transeccional; de igual forma, al relatar lo encontrado se abocó a un estudio descriptivo, en el que se utilizó la técnica de la observación.
Esta investigación se desarrolló a través de la herramienta metodológica de la malla del Marco Lógico, estableciendo la consistencia en el fenómeno a analizar a través de la construcción del siguiente objeto de estudio: La pequeña organización artesanal de productores de chocolate en Chiapas. Se tomaron en cuenta las dimensiones teóricas (abstractas), producción, cultura y familia, y desde el campo de la investigación científica de los estudios de agronegocios y ciencias económico-administrativas.
Multi-stakeholder platforms have become mainstream in projects, programmes and policy interventions aiming to improve innovation and livelihoods systems, i.e. research for development interventions in low-and middle-income contexts. However, the evidence for multi-stakeholder platforms' contribution to the performance of research for development interventions and their added value is not compelling. This paper focuses on stakeholder participation as one of the channels for multi-stakeholder platforms' contribution to the performance of research for development interventions, i.e.
Increasingly, (inter)national development organisations are investing in programmes for youth in agribusiness throughout Africa.
Innovation Platforms are increasingly being proposed and used in agricultural research for development project and programs. Innovation Platforms provide space to farmers, agricultural service providers, researchers, private sector and other stakeholders to jointly identify, analyse and overcome constraints to agricultural development. Although innovation platforms have been successful in addressing agricultural challenges, there is a risk that they are promoted as a panacea for all problems in the agricultural sector... which would clearly be a big mistake.
