Resulta esencial calibrar las máquinas con el fin de lograr densidades de siembra y tasas de fertilización óptimas. Los errores en la calibración, incluso los más leves, pueden provocar grandes diferencias en el campo. Con la calibración se asegura que no se aplique demasiada semilla o fertilizante (con lo cual se ahorra dinero y se protege el medio ambiente), pero tampoco cantidades insuficientes, lo cual puede producir una disminución en el rendimiento.

An extensive discussion in academic literature and policy currently celebrates Multi-Stakeholder Platforms (MSPs) as novel organizational forms that promote knowledge co-creation and innovation uptake among farmers and other stakeholders to address great challenges surrounding agri-food systems. While MSPs represent relatively novel organizations to address critical challenges such as rural poverty, food insecurity, and the negative effects of climate change, little is known on how they influence farmer innovation.
This report describes the findings of the country study carried out for the design of IFAD project on Restoration of Landscapes and Livelihoods (ROLL P) in Lesotho. Following an IFAD designed project to develop an integrated approach for designing climate-smart and nutrition-sensitive investments, support was provided to undertake a thorough situation analysis for climate, nutrition and their interlinkages and to identify potential pathways and interventions to achieve both climate action and nutrition outcomes.
