This article focus on studying brand experience under the background of IOT through data selecting and analysis , try to make a service design plan according to the design-driven branding innovation. The study take a local fruit brand as study object named “Taozhiyuan” , not only focus on logo or package but try to establish a co-design platform which all the stakeholders and take part in . This platform is based on the system supported by the Wuxi PeachWell IOT Technology Co. Ltd
Con el fin de mejorar la eficiencia de la adopción de innovaciones tecnológicas en el cultivo de limón ‘Persa’ en San Pedro Tlapacoyan, Veracruz e incrementar el rendimiento de este frutal y la relación beneficio/costo (B/C) de esta actividad económica, se empleó la “metodología de innovación de la bitácora”, la cual se trabajó con 26 productores de esta comunidad durante tres ciclos de producción: 2005/2006, 2006/2007 y 2007/2008.
For millennia, humans have modified plant genes in order to develop crops best suited for food, fiber, feed, and energy production. Conventional plant breeding remains inherently random and slow, constrained by the availability of desirable traits in closely related plant species. In contrast, agricultural biotechnology employs the modern tools of genetic engineering to reduce uncertainty and breeding time and to transfer traits from more distantly related plants.
The central question in increasing productivity and generating incomes in African agriculture is how to move from technology generation to innovations that respond to constraints of agricultural production along the value chains. This question was considered in the context of subsistence agriculture, smallholder production systems, inefficient marketing and investments by the private sector, a preponderance of public interventions, and inadequate policies.
América Latina, el Caribe y el mundo enfrentan una crisis que incluye, entre otras, dos dimensiones fundamentales: el dramático deterioro ambiental y la profunda debacle alimentaria. Dicha crisis se caracteriza por el acaparamiento, concentración y extranjerización de las tierras de los campesinos, de los indígenas originarios y de los afrodescendientes solo comparable con la que se dio durante la Colonia.
Les Nations unies ont désigné 2014 comme l’Année internationale de l’agriculture familiale. À l’échelle de la planète, la population agricole est estimée à 2,6 milliards de personnes, soit 40 % de la population totale. Avec 1,3 milliard d’actifs, l’agriculture demeure le premier secteur d’emploi au niveau mondial. Dans les pays en développement, là où 70% de la population reste liée aux activités agricoles, l’alimentation des familles dépend essentiellement de la production vivrière et des marchés locaux. Aujourd’hui, défendre l’agriculture familiale ne suffit plus.
One option for practically applying innovation systems thinking involves the establishment of innovation platforms (IPs). Such platforms are designed to bring together a variety of different stakeholders to exchange knowledge and resources and take action to solve common problems. Yet relatively little is known about how IPs operate in practice, particularly how power dynamics influence platform processes.This paper focuses on a research-for-development project in the Ethiopian highlands which established three IPs for improved natural resource management.
The organization of the Nutrition Innovation Labs represents a novel model for focusing U.S.- supported research on food and nutrition issues in developing countries. Their aims are to discover how policy and program interventions can most effectively achieve large-scale improvements in maternal and child nutrition, particularly by leveraging agriculture and build human and institutional capacity for applied policy analysis, research and program implementation.
Este documento describe el análisis de situación de una organización enfocada en seguridad alimentataria. Fue realizado un diagnóstico previo que analiza la situación actual de la organización. El diagnóstico se realizó mediante una herramienta que permite calificar siete capitales o recursos de la organización mediante un conjunto de criterios o preguntas. La información para completar la herramienta fue obtenida mediante entrevistas y grupos focales realizados con el personal de la organización.
This publication represents a synthesis of assessments of national agricultural innovation systems in countries of Central Asia, South Caucasus and Turkey. The first chapter gives an introduction of the project “Capacity Development for Analysis and Strengthening of Agricultural Innovation Systems in Central Asia and Turkey”, out of which the current publication reports about one of the project outputs achieved.
