Este folleto presenta la red virtual de comunicación sobre la extensión y la investigación (VERCON), que es un modelo conceptual que cualquier país puede utilizar y adaptar para mejorar el acceso a la información agropecuaria y el intercambio de conocimientos, así como para reforzar los vínculos entre las personas y las instituciones del mundo rural, utilizando las tecnologías de la información y la comunicación.
Este estudio fue realizado por El cuerpo academico "Gestión de las Organizaciones de Bajo Desarrollo Económico para su incorporación al mercado globalizado" que analizó a través de un ejercicio retrospectivo utilizando como herramienta metodológica la malla del Marco Lógico para aclarar el objeto de estudio, que en este caso, destaca el desempeño organizacional.
This thesis is situated in this field of inquiry and studies entrepreneurship in agriculture. It explores how we can further develop both agriculture and sustainable rural areas. Farmers have traditionally played a significant role in rural areas and rural development, and still do. However in pace with societal development and the reduced number of farms and farm production, their role has changed. Today, they are considered as raw material producers, being the first link in a food chain, and active in landscape conservation in the countryside.
In this paper, the authors apply an innovative multisectoral diagnostic to examine the entry points for potential interventions in food systems to improve the diets in a rural population in Malawi. The paper is structured as follows: The authors begin by describing the country context and the methods necessary to diagnose and contextualize dietary problems in target populations, prioritizing nutritious foods based on their relative and potential contribution to diets.
Market opportunities are increasing at a rapid pace for livestock products, fuelled by rising incomes, globalisation and urbanisation, particularly in the developing world. At the same time, these opportunities bring increased complexity in the supply channels that market, distribute, organise and govern high-value products. This begs the questions on the ability of smallholder producers to contribute to this complex process.
Increasingly, value chain approaches are integrated with multi-stakeholder processes to facilitate inclusive innovation and value chain upgrading of smallholders. This pathway to smallholder integration into agri-food markets has received limited analysis. This article analyses this integration through a case study of an ongoing smallholder dairy development programme in Tanzania.
This study examines interventions in two agricultural development projects in Ghana which aimed to build competitiveness of selected value chains to generate growth and reduce poverty – the Northern Rural Growth Project, implemented between 2009 and 2016, and the Market Oriented Agriculture Programme, which began in 2004 and is still in place.
The objectives of this manuscript are threefold; to provide a financial, and thus formal, definition of value added; measure value addition by firms across the four nodes/stages of the value chain; and third to test hypotheses as to the drivers of value creation that differ across the four nodes.First was defined value creation/
À partir d’une expérience de valorisation d’un produit par l’origine, la viande de bœuf produite dans les prairies de la Pampa brésilienne, notre article propose d’analyser la capacité des acteurs locaux à élaborer et mettre en œuvre des dispositifs, leur permettant de répondre aux enjeux du développement durable.
El objetivo de este trabajo presentado en la II Jornadas de Sociología es analizar el rol que cumplen las TIC en el proceso de comercialización implementado por Tu Raíz atendiendo el uso de dichas tecnologías en la compra de productos como en la venta, desde una concepción de la complejidad de los procesos de innovación y de comunicación.
