Face aux limites du système agro-industriel productiviste, des résistances et des alternatives positives proposent de nouvelles façons de penser et de pratiquer l’agriculture.
Esta guía, para el diagnóstico de los SisNIAs plantea un nabordaje con base en tres ejes de análisis: i) Caracterización de la producción y del sistema de ciencia y tecnología, donde se desarrolla la situación productiva del país, generación de conocimiento, dominio tecnológico y base técnica de producción; ii) Caracterización de los actores del sistema y sun papel en la inducción de la innovación, identificando a los principales actores y el rol que cumplen en el sistema; iii) Caracterización de la institucionalidad del SisNIA, sustentada en los marcos legales, estímulos y obstáculos a la
El objetivo del Sistema es el ampliar cobertura a productores/as que no tienen o tienen poca frecuencia de asistencia técnica por el sistema MAG, brindando respuestas a sus consultas sobre producción y comercialización de rubros agrícolas y pecuarios, a través de comunicación por vía telefónica:
• El productor/a recibirá información relevante para tomar decisiones.
• Se tendrá un monitoreo permanente de la situación agropecuaria.
El presente trabajo se desarroló con el objetivo de elaborar un sitio Web para la RIAC, que propicie la colaboración internacional y el trabajo en redes, con ayuda de las TIC, con vistas a lograr un mayor conocimiento del estado del arte de la producción citrícola y una divulgación más rápida de los principales problemas que se presenten en estos cultivos

This book is addressing this lack of adequate knowledge on the framework and strategies for scaling up and scaling out an agricultural research and development concept. The book contains a rich synthesis of available information on the scaling strategies in agriculture. It documents the lessons learnt from the different strategies used in the past and develops a workable framework for scaling up and scaling out an agricultural research and development concept such as IAR4D.
This booklet describes some recent, stand-out innovations and achievements that are the fruits of this future-oriented partnership, fully supported by the Katalyst project. As Katalyst is in its third phase of operations, some of the milestone achievements of the project are reviewed. The project expects to expand on these successful models to be implemented throughout Bangladesh.
This book collects 24 stories of change from the EU-funded CDAIS project. Launched in 2015, the overall objective of CDAIS is to make agricultural innovation systems more efficient and sustainable in meeting the demands of farmers, agri-business and consumers. The stories are about the eight pilot countries - in Africa, Asia and Latin America - in which CDAIS operates. Countries and title of the 24 stories are provided below, with date of last update for each story.
