3.1 Technical guidance on NAPs
The session will take the participants through the technical guidance for NAPs, including: NAP guidelines, guiding principles for adaptation under the Convention, and subsequent products developed by the LEG such as the sample NAP process. It will further look detailed aspects on undertaking assessments by going through best available methods and tools for assessing for assessing crop production as an example. Countries will further provide practical experiences in applying the guidance in the formulation of their NAPs.

Scientific and Technical Partnerships in Africa: Technologies, Platforms, and Partnerships in support of the African agricultural science agenda, Abidjan, Cote d'Ivoire, April 4&5, 2017
National Agricultural Innovation Project (NAIP), ICAR and the International Food Policy Research Institute (IFPRI) organized a two day workshop on ‘Impact of capacity building programs under NAIP’ on June 6-7, 2014 at AP Shinde Auditorium, NASC Complex, Pusa, New Delhi. The main purpose of the workshop was to present and discuss the findings of the impact evaluation study on capacity building programs under NAIP by IFPRI. The scientists from ICAR and agricultural universities were sent abroad to receive training in specialized research techniques. Post-training, scientists were expected to work on collaborative projects within the ICAR, which would further enrich their knowledge and skills, expand their research network and stimulate them’ to improve their productivity, creativity and quality of their research. The ICAR commissioned with IFPRI (International Food Policy Research Institute) to undertake an evaluation of these capacity building programs under NAIP in July 2012. The workshop shared the findings on the impact of capacity building programs under NAIP and evolve strategies for future capacity building programs

2. Introduction
Problem:
● Good health and nutritional
condition of crops – missing
automated decision support
system
Challenges:
● To create automated decision-support
system that will:
measured and collected data for the
purpose of the precise application
of chemicals and water
Provide the information on the
precise localization for the
application
3. Methodology
Team:
● Zuzana Palkova & Miroslav Konecny - coordination of the challenge,
stakeholder engagement and communication with participants
● Roman Danel – database and data processing
● Michal Repka - image processing, NDVI, EVI
● Tomas Penaz – GIS
Technologies that are likely to be used:
● NDVI and EVI
● Image analyses
4. Methodology
Data & Equipment list
● LPIS data
● Weather data
● Data from satellites like Sentinel-2, Landsat and SPOT, which produce red and
near infrared images.
● Data from drones
● Training data set for classification algorithms and/or real data from fields with
the disease/bugs
5. Experimental results
● to develop sensing methodology,
● to propose a hardware and software solution being able:
○ to determine the coordinates of each region together with its geometrical
dimensions
○ to provide accurate information in the form of maps of areas with insufficient
moisture, weeds, pests and diseases, or areas with low nutrient concentrations
6. Conclusion
● several questions arose from the discussions
○ Are the NDVI and EVI methods optimal or building reference images databases of
different health conditions of plants will be necessary?
○ Is there a real interest of farmers to use drones for the health and nutritional
condition of crops diagnosis, considering the limitations for using drones?
○ What will be the business model for further exploitation of developed applications?
7. Conclusion
● The main points for the next INSPIRE Hackathon include:
○ more precise specifications of the farmers' needs
○ possibilities for plants' image database development
○ clarification of the business potential of drones utilization in agriculture practice
8. Thank you for your
attention!
