This document summarizes lessons learned from Bangladesh's experience with agricultural mechanization. It notes that Bangladesh has seen widespread adoption of mechanization through two-wheeled tractors and shallow tubewell irrigation. Private sector investment was key, selecting affordable Chinese diesel pumps and tractors that smallholders could access. This led to intensification, higher productivity, and rural employment growth. Complementarity between 2WT and 4WT technologies was emphasized. Expanding mechanization of other crop activities like planting, harvesting and processing was also discussed.
This presentation gives a general overview of today\'s situation in Geo-thermal industry and its prospects of growths in the near future. Also some information about Ukraine\'s geo-thermal market is shown
Sustainable intensification and climate change: An EARS-CGIAR Mega-program in...ILRI
Presented by Barry Shapiro (ILRI) at a Consultative Meeting on Strengthening CGIAR - EARS partnerships for effective agricultural transformation in Ethiopia, Addis Ababa, 4–5 December 2014
The TRIPS meeting for North Africa and West Asia took place from July 26 to 28. This presentation, presented by Dr. Ali Nefzaoui, Dr. Rachid Serraj, Dr. Maarten van Ginkel, and Dr. William Payne covered NA & WA Target Area and action site characterization. Basic descriptors included climate, topography, soils, water resources, land use/land cover, land degradation, demography, agricultural systems, governance, and research opportunities. Sites were delineated into high potential areas which are mainly cereal and fruit tree based and low potential areas which are mainly agropastoral and pastoral systems.
The presentation outlines means of reducing vulnerability and managing risk in high and low potential areas and describes their climate regimes. It also identifies constraints, hypothesis and outputs for both types of areas. Low potential area constraints include high population growth, limited water resources, transitional production systems, more frequent and prolonged droughts and inappropriate policies of land use.
Constraints for high production areas (areas in which sustainable intensification for more productive, profitable and diversified dryland agriculture with well established linkages to markets) include pressure to be efficient in order to compete globally, small farms inability to benefit from economies of scale and youth preference to transition to cities for livelihoods.

zkStudyClub - Reef: Fast Succinct Non-Interactive Zero-Knowledge Regex ProofsAlex Pruden
This paper presents Reef, a system for generating publicly verifiable succinct non-interactive zero-knowledge proofs that a committed document matches or does not match a regular expression. We describe applications such as proving the strength of passwords, the provenance of email despite redactions, the validity of oblivious DNS queries, and the existence of mutations in DNA. Reef supports the Perl Compatible Regular Expression syntax, including wildcards, alternation, ranges, capture groups, Kleene star, negations, and lookarounds. Reef introduces a new type of automata, Skipping Alternating Finite Automata (SAFA), that skips irrelevant parts of a document when producing proofs without undermining soundness, and instantiates SAFA with a lookup argument. Our experimental evaluation confirms that Reef can generate proofs for documents with 32M characters; the proofs are small and cheap to verify (under a second).

In the rapidly evolving landscape of technologies, XML continues to play a vital role in structuring, storing, and transporting data across diverse systems. The recent advancements in artificial intelligence (AI) present new methodologies for enhancing XML development workflows, introducing efficiency, automation, and intelligent capabilities. This presentation will outline the scope and perspective of utilizing AI in XML development. The potential benefits and the possible pitfalls will be highlighted, providing a balanced view of the subject.
We will explore the capabilities of AI in understanding XML markup languages and autonomously creating structured XML content. Additionally, we will examine the capacity of AI to enrich plain text with appropriate XML markup. Practical examples and methodological guidelines will be provided to elucidate how AI can be effectively prompted to interpret and generate accurate XML markup.
Further emphasis will be placed on the role of AI in developing XSLT, or schemas such as XSD and Schematron. We will address the techniques and strategies adopted to create prompts for generating code, explaining code, or refactoring the code, and the results achieved.
The discussion will extend to how AI can be used to transform XML content. In particular, the focus will be on the use of AI XPath extension functions in XSLT, Schematron, Schematron Quick Fixes, or for XML content refactoring.
The presentation aims to deliver a comprehensive overview of AI usage in XML development, providing attendees with the necessary knowledge to make informed decisions. Whether you’re at the early stages of adopting AI or considering integrating it in advanced XML development, this presentation will cover all levels of expertise.
By highlighting the potential advantages and challenges of integrating AI with XML development tools and languages, the presentation seeks to inspire thoughtful conversation around the future of XML development.

Removing Uninteresting Bytes in Software FuzzingAftab Hussain
Imagine a world where software fuzzing, the process of mutating bytes in test seeds to uncover hidden and erroneous program behaviors, becomes faster and more effective. A lot depends on the initial seeds, which can significantly dictate the trajectory of a fuzzing campaign, particularly in terms of how long it takes to uncover interesting behaviour in your code. We introduce DIAR, a technique designed to speedup fuzzing campaigns by pinpointing and eliminating those uninteresting bytes in the seeds. Picture this: instead of wasting valuable resources on meaningless mutations in large, bloated seeds, DIAR removes the unnecessary bytes, streamlining the entire process.
In this work, we equipped AFL, a popular fuzzer, with DIAR and examined two critical Linux libraries -- Libxml's xmllint, a tool for parsing xml documents, and Binutil's readelf, an essential debugging and security analysis command-line tool used to display detailed information about ELF (Executable and Linkable Format). Our preliminary results show that AFL+DIAR does not only discover new paths more quickly but also achieves higher coverage overall. This work thus showcases how starting with lean and optimized seeds can lead to faster, more comprehensive fuzzing campaigns -- and DIAR helps you find such seeds.

Climate Impact of Software Testing at Nordic Testing DaysKari Kakkonen
My slides at Nordic Testing Days 6.6.2024
Climate impact / sustainability of software testing discussed on the talk. ICT and testing must carry their part of global responsibility to help with the climat warming. We can minimize the carbon footprint but we can also have a carbon handprint, a positive impact on the climate. Quality characteristics can be added with sustainability, and then measured continuously. Test environments can be used less, and in smaller scale and on demand. Test techniques can be used in optimizing or minimizing number of tests. Test automation can be used to speed up testing.

23 25 jan 2013 csisa kathmandu acclerated mechanisation lessons from bangladesh scott
1. Accelerating access to mechanized
services in India: lessons from
Bangladesh
CSISA Objective 1
Planning Meeting
Kathmandu, Nepal
January 23- 25th, 2013
Scott Justice
NAEF, Consultant: CIMMYT Bangladesh, IRRI Cambodia, etc
Stephen Biggs,
Research Fellow, University of East Anglia
2. Broad definition of mechanization –
not just production and CA
– Includes harvest, post harvest and even
cross sector into rural transport and
energy
– Success to promoting 2 or 4 WTs and
their agricultural attachments, including
CA machinery is to understand how
import other sectors are for the primary
mover / tractor ownership
3. Throw the net wider
• Look around in south Asia for proven durable
machinery products
– Yes look in India –Yes look at Bangladesh, etc
• But also look to similar East Asian countries
– Thailand and Vietnam #1 and #2 exporters of rice
in the world, small and fragmented farms and
done with 3M 2WTs, more and more broadcast
rice, and mini reapers/threshers, and mini –track
combines
4. Multiple paths to higher levels of
mechanization
• India
– Largest Producer of 4WTs in the world
• 400,000 / year
• 3.5 M Total
• 50-60% of Indian farmers using mechanized tillage
• Bangladesh
– Largest Importer of Chinese 2WTs in the world
• 60,000 / year
• 500,000 total
• 90+ % of all Bangladesh’s using mechanized tillage
– With the help of 40,000 4WTS
» Its not an either or –very complementary technologies
5. Socially Equitable Mechanization
Processes
• Our Premise- small scale machinery
more accessible to both small and
large farmers- inverse is not necessarily
true
– Evidence that higher levels of ag
mechanization increases growth in non-
farm rural industries and rural
employment (alternative livelihoods and
rural development)
6. Socially Equitable Mechanization
Processes
• Beneficiaries of machinery
–Owner/Service Provider
• Benefits from use on own farm
• Benefits ia service provision of
machinery
–India: 3,000,000 4 WT Owners/HHs
–Bangladesh 500,000 2WT owners/HHs
7. Socially Equitable Mechanization
Processes
• Beneficiaries of machinery
– Renter: less individual monetary- but exponentially
more renters (esp. farm HHs who cannot afford
machinery)
• 500,000 2WTs x 20-30 HHs = 10 – 15 M Farm HHs
• 3,000,000 x ?? HH= ??
– Benefits to renters include:
• On time farm operations
• Reduced turn around times
• Increased cropping intensity
• Reduced labor costs / drudgery
8. Socially Equitable Mechanization
Processes
• Beneficiaries of machinery
– Exchequer benefits – much more from renters
than owners
– Benefits include:
• Increased food security
• Increased rural employment
9. First Lesson from Bangladesh
• Till 1987 little success in wide spread
mechanization efforts
• Govt made two important policy changes in 1987
– disbanded govt ag engg machine quality vetting
group
– Reduced tariffs
• Mechanization has been 95% private sector led
• Private sector selected what machinery to
introduce
10. Second lesson from Bangladesh
• Private sector selected cheap lightweight China diesel
pumpsets
– Starting in early-mid 1980s
• Since 2000
– 100,000 Chinese diesel engines imported / year
– Lay flat pipes bring further water savings
• 2010 – 1.4 M STWs
• 70% area irrigated
– 90% of this is STW - with remaining surface and DTW
– Maximizing the shallow and plentiful IGP aquifers
– Fair access via SPs and water markets emerged-renter gets
water when needed
– Central and northern Bangladesh currently reaching 100%
shallow aquifer utilization
• Appu 1974 Spread of mobile pumpsets in Purnia and Saharsa Districts- depackaged the
govt stationary big heavy Kiloskar pumpsets and immediate started markets for water
services.
11. Third lesson from Bangladesh
• 1980s diesel pumpsets, fertilizers and
better varieties paved way in the 1990s for
2WTs
– GOB dropped all barriers in 1988
– 1995 200,000
– 2000 300,000
– 2010 450,000 – 500,000
• 55,000 – 60,000 imported per year
– 90% of all farmers using mechanized Tillage
12. Fourth lesson from Bangladesh
• The rise of good varieties, water and machinery= intensification
• Boro rice along with fertilizer use tied to increasing # of STW
Total rice Aus Aman Boro Expon. (Total rice)

13. Other Lessons Learned
• Moving from animal tillage to small mechanized
tillage is a good thing!
– And not all rotovators are not the same
• Smallholders with fragmented increasingly frag
plots are very productive and competitive and via
small farm mechanization
• Labor Intensive agricultural mechanization process
• Complementarity of two and four wheel tractor -
not mutually exclusive
14. Other Lessons Learned
• Increased water, better varieties and
mechanization leads to:
– Increased intensification 2.2 – 2.3 CI
– Increased productivity
– Increased need for specialized farm labor
– Increase growth and employment in the non-farm rural
sector- 60+% of farmer income from NFS
• (M. Hoosain 2004, Mandal 2001)
• Complementarity of two and four wheel tractor -
not mutually exclusive- 2WTs are not going away
• Siddique, Ashraf, et al., 2012. Study into the Commercialization
of Selected Agricultural Machines in Bangladesh.
15. Lessons yet to be learned
• Good understanding on mechanization’s impact
on women
• Womenization and aging of the family farm
16. Lessons yet to be learned
• Mechanizing seeding and planting with 2WTs
– Possibilities and hopes but no real market success - yet
• Bedplanters
• Fulltill / Strip till drills/planters
• VMP
• Tool bar / inverted T openers
• Mini Happy Seeder
• Attachments/seeders etc needed for recently emerged
4WT sector in Bangladesh- only rotovators
• Two emerging labor bottlenecks
– No machinery in market for mechanizing harvest of small
fragmented holdings- look to east Asia for durable products
– No machinery in market for mechanizing transplanting – look
where for durable products?
17. Nepal- Some Lessons Learned on
Small Scale Mechanizationand
• Group ownership doesn’t work- but it’s an
excellent for “fair” demos
• Small machinery “self selects” the
populations we want to reach- lower social-
economic status and janjatis
18. Nepal- Lessons and potential
machinery in long neglected hill
agriculture
– Hills
• 50% of 2WT sales Is in the hills of Nepal
• Irrigation/water scarcities
– Centrifugal pumpsets, axial flow pumps, plastic lined ponds,
drip irrigation, use of mini and micro hydro
• Mini tiller 3-4 horsepower - Mezzo tiller 6-8 HP
– “Sized Attachments”
» planter,
» sized thresher for rice, wheat, kodo
» maize sheller,
» irrigation pump,
» rice/maize/wheat mills
» trailer
• Various jab planters
19. Next Steps for Bihar and Odisha?
• Characterizing our mechanization environment in
Odissa and Bihar
– Understand better what is going on, on the ground
• Market oriented investigations via quick initial studies and
stakeholder workshops with industry members and their
associations
– Investigations need to be quick.
– Don’t need to be heavily quantitative- descriptive
– Find what is working already and backstop it
20. Next Steps for Bihar and Odisha?
• Via the stakeholder workshop
– Organizing and backstopping the various
industries- backstop existing r form new
professional associations
– Finding the blockages
21. Next Steps for Bihar and Odissa?
WATER!
• WB’s The Ganges Strategic Basin Assessment
(2011) estimates only 30-40% shallow aquifer
usage
• Spread of light weight Chinese pumpsets and layflat
pipe or 2-wheel tractors?
– Who are the main market supplier actors? Market
impediments?
– Are SPs emerging / water markets spreading? Impediments?
22. Next Steps for Bihar and Odissa?
• Selecting other new machinery
– 4WT
• O-till drills/bedplanters/Happy Seeders
• LLL
• Reapers
• PTO threshers
23. Next Steps for Bihar and Odissa?
2WT- Small Scale Mechanization
• Attendance of hub managers to Workshop on
Rural Mechanization: Policy and Technology
Lessons from Bangladesh and other Asian
Countries March 7th and 8th, Dhaka
