The document introduces the Rice Bowl Index, which aims to harness knowledge to make agriculture more sustainable and the world more food secure. It does this by distilling vast amounts of public data and information on food security into a concise index. The index evaluates four categories - farm-level capabilities, policy and trade environment, environmental capacity, and future demand and price trends - to identify both challenges and opportunities for concrete actions to improve food security in Asia. The ultimate goal is to facilitate an evidence-based, multi-stakeholder dialogue that shifts the focus from problems to solutions.
GCARD2: Briefing paper Household Nutrition Security (WFP)
While the research agenda is growing, there remains limited concrete evidence on how agriculture–nutrition linkages work. A mapping exercise has been completed by DFID/LCIRAH outlining the research gaps. However more nutrition-relevant data from agricultural interventions needs to be generated, collected and shared, and nutritional indicators need to be included in evaluations. LCIRAH identify the need for greater understanding of the pathways from agricultural inputs and practices through value chains to effects on food environment, consumption and nutrition.
Visit the conference site for more information: http://www.egfar.org/gcard-2012
Bien que les programmes de recherche se multiplient, il n'existe pas encore de preuves concrètes sur la façon dont les relations entre l’agriculture et la nutrition fonctionnent. Un état des lieux a été réalisé par DFID/LCIRAH montrant les lacunes de la recherche dans ce domaine. Cependant, d'importantes données nutritionnelles pertinentes doivent être générées, collectées et partagées ; et les indicateurs nutritionnels doivent être inclus dans les évaluations. LCIRAH identifie la nécessité pour une large compréhension des mécanismes depuis les intrants et pratiques agricoles, a travers les chaines de valeur et aux effets sur les aliments, la consommation et la nutrition.

The Meeting of G20 Agricultural Chief Scientists (MACS) was held in Punta del Este, Uruguay in October 2012. [1] High and volatile agricultural commodity prices have negatively impacted global food security by making food unaffordable for many. [2] Food production must increase 70% by 2050 to feed a growing population of over 9 billion people, but constraints like less available land and water and climate change pose challenges. [3] The MACS meeting reviewed global agricultural research initiatives and identified areas for improved coordination to strengthen food security through open data sharing and technology transfer.
GFAR / GODAN / CTA webinar #2 "Key data for farmers" - Stephen Kalyesubula - ...
[Webinar recording in last slide or at https://youtu.be/taHHp3UbRZI, 28/2/2018]
As part of its work on farmers’ data rights and following up on the face-to-face course on Farmers’ Access to Data organized in Centurion in November 2017, GFAR collaborates with the Global Open Data for Agriculture and Nutrition initiative (GODAN) and the Technical Center for Agricultural and Rural Cooperarion (CTA) on a series of webinars on data-driven agriculture, its opportunities and its challenges.
Overview of webinar #2
Data becomes significant if it can be linked to information, knowledge and wisdom. Once processed it can be used to generate detailed insights into farm operations and the environment. It assists big and small holder farmers in making data-based operational decisions to optimize yield and boost revenue while minimizing expenses, the chances of crop failure, and environmental impact.
For data driven agriculture to happen we have to distinguish the data streams in the food chain from pre-planting to consumption, for example: data collected and managed from the farm by farmers which can be either static or dynamic; data coming from external sources like market prices and data that is exported for aggregation by other farm service providers. However, farmers may not be in a position to realize those streams and possibly what data and information is required to answer the food chain questions, for example: What produce can I grow where I live? When should I sow/plant/harvest/market it? How should I sow/plant/harvest/market it? All these questions can be answered if the factual data or information is used or made available to the farmers.
Webinar Goals
Make the participants understand the different key data streams, flow and sources that are vital to agricultural value chains. Participants will be in position to identify the data they own or collect on their farms and its usefulness, understand the difference between human and machine farm data, identify the part in the agricultural value chain where data, and which data, is needed most.

The document introduces the Rice Bowl Index, which aims to harness knowledge to make agriculture more sustainable and the world more food secure. It does this by distilling vast amounts of public data and information on food security into a concise index. The index evaluates four categories - farm-level capabilities, policy and trade environment, environmental capacity, and future demand and price trends - to identify both challenges and opportunities for concrete actions to improve food security in Asia. The ultimate goal is to facilitate an evidence-based, multi-stakeholder dialogue that shifts the focus from problems to solutions.
GCARD2: Briefing paper Household Nutrition Security (WFP)
While the research agenda is growing, there remains limited concrete evidence on how agriculture–nutrition linkages work. A mapping exercise has been completed by DFID/LCIRAH outlining the research gaps. However more nutrition-relevant data from agricultural interventions needs to be generated, collected and shared, and nutritional indicators need to be included in evaluations. LCIRAH identify the need for greater understanding of the pathways from agricultural inputs and practices through value chains to effects on food environment, consumption and nutrition.

Bien que les programmes de recherche se multiplient, il n'existe pas encore de preuves concrètes sur la façon dont les relations entre l’agriculture et la nutrition fonctionnent. Un état des lieux a été réalisé par DFID/LCIRAH montrant les lacunes de la recherche dans ce domaine. Cependant, d'importantes données nutritionnelles pertinentes doivent être générées, collectées et partagées ; et les indicateurs nutritionnels doivent être inclus dans les évaluations. LCIRAH identifie la nécessité pour une large compréhension des mécanismes depuis les intrants et pratiques agricoles, a travers les chaines de valeur et aux effets sur les aliments, la consommation et la nutrition.

Okanagan Waterwise: Local Government User Guide
This document provides a user guide for local governments in the Okanagan region of British Columbia on the Okanagan Water Supply and Demand Project. The project studied current and projected water supply and demand in the Okanagan valley under various climate change scenarios. It found that water demand is expected to exceed supply by 2025 without adaptation. The guide outlines key findings on climate impacts and implications for local planning. It provides information on tools and data produced by the project to help local governments assess water needs and risks in their area.

This document discusses three key challenges related to climate change and food security: 1) Feeding a growing global population, 2) Increasing food production to meet future demand, and 3) Reducing greenhouse gas emissions from food systems. It then outlines CCAFS's approach to addressing these challenges through regional partnerships and participatory action research across sites. The goals are to ensure research informs climate agreements and adaptation planning, and that tools and approaches developed are used by stakeholders. Outcome mapping and scaling strategies are discussed to strengthen research-user links from local to regional levels.

This document discusses mechanisms by which CGIAR centers support the recognition and promotion of Farmers' Rights. It notes that Farmers' Rights need to co-exist with intellectual property rights over new varieties. The CGIAR recognizes Farmers' Rights in its Intellectual Assets Principles. The document discusses what Farmers' Rights mean, including the right to conserve and use genetic resources, and measures that support Farmers' Rights such as participatory plant breeding and community seed banks. It recommends developing guidelines to support Farmers' Rights implementation and balancing Farmers' Rights with intellectual property rights.

This document discusses the Sub-Saharan Africa Challenge Program (SSA CP) which aims to increase the impact of agricultural research for development in Sub-Saharan Africa. The SSA CP develops innovative partnerships through innovation platforms to address technological, institutional, and infrastructural constraints faced by smallholder farmers. These partnerships involve researchers, farmers, private sector, government, and others. They work to develop solutions to specific local problems and ensure new technologies and practices reach farmers. The SSA CP has shown increasing impact is possible through innovative partnerships that provide appropriate solutions. It will inform the work of the CRP 1.2 program to further reduce food insecurity and poverty in the region.
C1.3. Meeting of G20 Agricultural Chied Scientists (MACS)
The Meeting of G20 Agricultural Chief Scientists (MACS) was held in Punta del Este, Uruguay in October 2012. [1] High and volatile agricultural commodity prices have negatively impacted global food security by making food unaffordable for many. [2] Food production must increase 70% by 2050 to feed a growing population of over 9 billion people, but constraints like less available land and water and climate change pose challenges. [3] The MACS meeting reviewed global agricultural research initiatives and identified areas for improved coordination to strengthen food security through open data sharing and technology transfer.

GFAR / GODAN / CTA webinar #2 "Key data for farmers" - Stephen Kalyesubula - ...
[Webinar recording in last slide or at https://youtu.be/taHHp3UbRZI, 28/2/2018]
As part of its work on farmers’ data rights and following up on the face-to-face course on Farmers’ Access to Data organized in Centurion in November 2017, GFAR collaborates with the Global Open Data for Agriculture and Nutrition initiative (GODAN) and the Technical Center for Agricultural and Rural Cooperarion (CTA) on a series of webinars on data-driven agriculture, its opportunities and its challenges.
Overview of webinar #2
Data becomes significant if it can be linked to information, knowledge and wisdom. Once processed it can be used to generate detailed insights into farm operations and the environment. It assists big and small holder farmers in making data-based operational decisions to optimize yield and boost revenue while minimizing expenses, the chances of crop failure, and environmental impact.
For data driven agriculture to happen we have to distinguish the data streams in the food chain from pre-planting to consumption, for example: data collected and managed from the farm by farmers which can be either static or dynamic; data coming from external sources like market prices and data that is exported for aggregation by other farm service providers. However, farmers may not be in a position to realize those streams and possibly what data and information is required to answer the food chain questions, for example: What produce can I grow where I live? When should I sow/plant/harvest/market it? How should I sow/plant/harvest/market it? All these questions can be answered if the factual data or information is used or made available to the farmers.
Webinar Goals
Make the participants understand the different key data streams, flow and sources that are vital to agricultural value chains. Participants will be in position to identify the data they own or collect on their farms and its usefulness, understand the difference between human and machine farm data, identify the part in the agricultural value chain where data, and which data, is needed most.

As part of its work on farmers’ data rights and following up on the face-to-face course on Farmers’ Access to Data organized in Centurion in November 2017, GFAR collaborates with the Global Open Data for Agriculture and Nutrition initiative (GODAN) and the Technical Center for Agricultural and Rural Cooperarion (CTA) on a series of webinars on data-driven agriculture, its opportunities and its challenges.
Overview of webinar #1
Precision agriculture is a promising set of technologies that is data intensive, but which has limited adoption by small holder farms in Sub-Saharan Africa. Concurrently, current trends in sustainability, traceability, and compliance reporting demand that an ever-increasing amount of data be gathered as part of everyday operations in modern production agriculture.
The use of farm management information systems (FMIS) for decision support has shown great promise for improving farm yields and profitability. However, growers are often unsure of the value of the data that they are providing and/or receiving. How does this data help them make the right decisions to improve their yield and profitability? How do growers and service providers work together to simplify the design and use of farm data? How can smallholder farmers take advantage of data in a mutually valuable relationship with data providers?
Webinar Goals
Provide attendees a foundation for understanding the use of data for farming and across the agricultural value chain. Attendees should be able to apply the core concepts of using data for field operations, as well as how data is used across the value chain. Attendees will be introduced to the opportunities and challenges of using data, especially for smallholder farmers.
