The purpose of this report is to provide some of the groundwork in answering the question of how the CGIAR system and other public agricultural research organisations should adapt and respond to an era of transformation framed by the SDGs. It does this by exploring the way in which this transformation agenda reframes agricultural research and innovation.
This document is accompanyng the volume Public Agricultural Research in an Era of Transformation: The Challenge of Agri-Food System Innovation (available in TAPipedia here), which provides some of the groundwork in answering the question of how the CGIAR system and other public agricultural research organisations should adapt and respond to an era of transformation framed by the SDGs.

This presentation addresses the topic of sustainable agricultural intensification and gender- and age-biased land tenure systems in Africa.
El presente artículo pretende describir la técnica de las alianzas estratégicas consideradas como herramienta adaptable dentro de la administración estratégica para beneficio del sector agroindustrial; cuya aplicación puede dar origen a mejoras o desarrollo de prácticas eficientes para el cumplimiento efectivo de objetivos y metas.
El objetivo de este trabajo es evaluar ex-ante el efecto de un sistema de concesión de infraestructura pública sobre el costo directo de producción agrícola en una zona objeto de mejoramiento del riego. La metodología consideró la aplicación de una encuesta a potenciales beneficiarios, que recoja datos sobre su percepción, disposición a pagar y planes productivos en un nuevo escenario para el riego, contrastándolos con el impacto en el margen bruto resultante del consumo eventual de agua.
El objetivo general que orientó el trabajo fue analizar a la luz de las teorías las ciencias de la administración la situación empresarial de La Integradora de la Frontera Sur, S.A. de C.V., para generar propuestas concretas de acción que les permitan mejorar su gestión empresarial. Los objetivos particulares serían analizar formas para proponer estrategias concretas en el interés de contribuir a su mejora e incidir con actividades de capacitación.
