Esta publicación es el resultado de un proceso de sistematización participativo facilitado por el Centro Internacional de Agricultura Tropical (CIAT) para el proyecto “Alianza para la Creación de Oportunidades de Desarrollo Rural a través de Relaciones Agroempresariales” (ACORDAR, por sus siglas en inglés).Este documento de sistematización pretende visibilizar el proceso de graduación o transición a la autosuficiencia de 34 organizaciones empresariales1 y/o agronegocios rurales atendidos por los miembros del consorcio y ubicados en 20 municipios del territorio nacional; Así mismo, procura r
While the development commu nity has recently begun the turn toward climate-sensitive program ming, climate-related efforts have focused on big transformations and big polluters. Energy generation and deforestation are easily identified sources of greenhouse gas emissions for which we have data and policy tools, and therefore a certain degree of comfort. Certainly, global emissions are greatly influenced by energy generation, distressing rates of deforestation in what remains of the world's tropical forests, and other large sources of greenhouse gas emissions.
Accordingly to the authors It is beyond the scope of this chapter to empirically explore the determinants of the commercialization of agriculture and its impact on poverty; so instead, they will present and discuss some empirical evidence on topics that remain hotly debated regarding commercialization and poverty. In Sect. 12.2, it is investigated how smallholder farmers in northern Vietnam have been affected by the recent food price volatility with respect to their income and consumption levels, while in Sect.
In direct agri-food chains (DAFCs), farmers and consumers are brought together with the aim of shortening, localizing and synergizing an agri-food chain. As food moves from the farm to the fork, all the economic activities are performed by farmers/producers or consumers, and none intermediary is required to handle an agri-food product before it is consumed. Any DAFC form provide a sort of liminal space for social learning and for local lay knowledge exchange, through face-to-face interactions.
Agricultural innovation is a process that takes a multitude of different forms, and, within this process, agricultural research and expertise are mobilised at different points in time for different purposes. This paper uses two key analytical principles to establish how research is actually put into use. The first, which concerns the configurations of organisations and their relationships associated with innovation, reveals the additional set of resources and expertise that research needs to be married to, and sheds light on the types of arrangements that allow this marriage to take place.
Food systems contribute 19%–29% of global anthropogenic greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions, releasing 9,800–16,900 megatonnes of carbon dioxide equivalent (MtCO2e) in 2008. Agricultural production, including indirect emissions associated with land-cover change, contributes 80%–86% of total food system emissions, with significant regional variation. The impacts of global climate change on food systems are expected to be widespread, complex, geographically and temporally variable, and profoundly influenced by socioeconomic conditions.
Cette présentation PowerPoint présentée par Magdalena Blum (à l'Atelier sur le Conseil orienté vers le marché Dakar, Sénégal, 22-24 octobre 2012) se concentre sur les sujets suivants:
- Nouveau concept du conseil agricole et rural
- Nouveaux rôles des conseillers
- Les caractéristiques des systèmes de conseil agricole et rurale
Este documento trata de escuelas de campo y de cómo ayudan al desarrollo des capacidades.
Le Programme 2012-2013 de l’Initiative 3N vise à :
- Accroître et diversifier les productions agro-sylvo-pastorales et halieutiques pour assurer la sécurité alimentaire et nutritionnelle des populations nigériennes;
- Augmenter les revenus des producteurs et des acteurs des filières agricoles par l’amélioration de la conservation, la transformation et la commercialisation des produits agro-alimentaires ;
- Améliorer les capacités nationales de prévention et de gestion des crises et catastrophes et la résilience des populations vulnérables.
Ce manuel est destiné aux formateurs des organisations paysannes (OP) et à leurs membres en Afrique sub-saharienne. Le but étant de fournir une formation sur les techniques et opérations après-récolte afin d’améliorer la qualité des grains et ainsi de permettre l’augmentation des revenus et l’amélioration de la sécurité alimentaire des agriculteurs participants au programme. Dans le passé, les formations sur les opérations après-récolte n’ont pas été normalisées entre les différents pays membres du programme P4P.
