El estudio realizado en el año 2007, tuvo como objetivo: identificar el grado de estructuración de los sistemas productivos, de ovinos y analizar las principales características de comunicación y coordinación que presentan los actores económicos dentro del eslabón de producción en 5 comunidades de Chignahuapan, Puebla.
El propósito del presente artículo es aplicar, como instrumento metodológico, el esquema teórico de los conglomerados para analizar la cadena productiva del aloe en Falcón (Venezuela), y derivar del mismo potenciales elementos clave que es necesario atender para evolucionar de una actividad tradicional y semiindustrial, hacia un competitivo conglomerado industrial sostenido en los atributos de este sector productivo
Este documento hizo parte de la sesión 2 (Modelos de Vinculación de Productores Pobres Mediante Negocios Inclusivos) del Taller Regional de Intercambio de la Alianza de Aprendizaje, realizado en junio de 2010, y presenta el concepto de Negocios Inclusivos (Qué son, Cuáles son sus beneficios para la empresa y para las comunidades pobres), Cómo implementa el Servicio Holandés de Cooperación al Desarrollo (SNV) este modelo de negocio y cuáles han sido sus principales lecciones aprendidas; así como algunos casos de aplicación y un mapeo regional de intervenciones en negocios inclusivos
This brief summarises the publication ‘Mobilising the potential of rural and agricultural extension’ that was prepared for the Global Conference on Agricultural Research for Development (GCARD) in Montpellier, March 2010. Rural advisory services are key to putting smallholder demands at the centre of rural development, ensuring food security, and dealing with risks and uncertainty. The brief focuses on five opportunities to mobilise the potential of rural advisory services.
Chez nous, certains en rêveraient presque … fini le chant du coq à 5h du matin, les odeurs de purin dans les campagnes, les manifestations des producteurs de lait à coup de tracteurs qui bloquent les entrées des villes, et aussi terminé l’argent du contribuable «gaspillé» dans le gouffre des subventions agricoles. D’autres, avec un haussement d’épaules, ne noteraient peut-être même pas la différence.
This study examines the role of public–private partnerships in international agricultural research. It is intended to provide policymakers, researchers, and business decisionmakers with an understanding of how such partnerships operate, how they promote the exchange of knowledge and technology, and how they contribute to poverty reduction.
The DURAS Project, which ran from 2004 to 2008, established a truly pioneering means of integrating innovation from science with that from communities themselves. At the heart of DURAS has been its innovative competitive grants system. Following an original selection and evaluation process that placed a premium on multi-stakeholder partnerships, 12 projects were funded in Africa and Asia over a period of three years, each involving an array of disciplines and partners.
The food security research project (FSRP) aims to contribute to effective policy dialogue, capacity building, and ultimately an improved agricultural policy environment in Zambia, through collaboration with government and the private sector. It achieves these objectives through in-service capacity building, applied analysis, and policy outreach. A hallmark of the Michigan State University/FSRP approach is the “joint products” approach, whereby training, applied research and outreach are undertaken collaboratively with in-country stakeholders and government counterparts.
