CGIAR and IFAD: Sharing and Scaling up Innovations?
1. CGIAR and IFAD - Sharing and
Scaling up Innovations?
Presented by Thomas Randolph (ILRI), Peter Ballantyne (ILRI),
Nicole Lefore (IWMI), Barbara Rischkowsky (ICARDA) at the
IFAD ESA Regional Workshop, Addis Ababa, 15 November
2012
2. Overview
• Introductions and Process
• Research, CGIAR and IFAD – current
collaboration experience ...
• Research for development in the new CGIAR
• CGIAR Research Programs
• CGIAR and IFAD – future opportunities?
3. CGIAR and IFAD today
• Technical advisory grants (TAG) from IFAD Rome
– usually a few countries, regional/technical focus
– cross country, learning, innovation, piloting
– 3 years (€1-1.5m)
• Other Rome
– Regional learning, KM and innovation
– One-off evaluations (contribution to project design)
• EU financed via IFAD
– Aligned to EU priorities
– 3 years (€1-1.5m)
• Country program financed ??
– Aligned to country program investments/loans
4. CGIAR and IFAD today
• Experience to date
– Repeated expression of intent to link research to loan
portfolio
– Research to address loan project needs
– Technical Advisory Notes (TANs) – scale out technical
results
– Drawing on specific CGIAR expertise (consultancy mode)
• Frustrating!
• Can we make the partnership more
meaningful?
5. CGIAR- IFAD examples
• Improving Livelihoods of Small Farmers and Rural Women
through Value-Added Processing and Export of Cashmere, Wool
and Mohair (ICARDA)
• Enhancing dairy-based livelihoods in India and Tanzania through
feed value chain improvement (ILRI)
• Improved management of agricultural water in Eastern and
Southern Africa (IMWI)
• Small ruminant value chains to reduce poverty and increase
food security in drylands of India and Mozambique (EU -ILRI)
• Catalysing the emerging smallholder pig value chains in Uganda
to increase rural incomes and assets (EU- ILRI)
• Conservation agriculture for smallholder farmers in Eastern and
Southern Africa (EU –CIMMYT)
6. Discussion: You and research!
• What positives do you have working with
research, especially the CGIAR?
– Any concrete examples
• What negatives do you have working with
research, especially the CGIAR?
• Any concrete examples
7. New CGIAR
• CGIAR Reform process
– Efficiency in resource mobilization and
implementation
– Relevance and impact
• Loose association of Centres and donors
Consortium and CG Fund
• Diffused, uncoordinated research decided by
individual Centres and donors Problem
focused, integrated CGIAR Research Programs
9. Water, Land and Ecosystems
THE CHALLENGE: How to lift millions of farming families out of poverty and improve how land and
water resources are managed while maintaining vibrant ecosystems
EXPECTED OUTCOMES by 2020
• 15 million smallholder farmers in sub-Saharan Africa have sustained food security because yield gaps are
reduced while maintaining ecosystem functions in rainfed landscapes
• Enhance food security and household income for about 20 million rural people in the Eastern Gangetic
Plains by improving access to irrigation
• Minimize the health risks associated with the use of wastewater and excreta in agriculture which can
benefit an estimated 21 million vegetable farmers and 175 million consumers currently exposed to
10. Reducing the Vulnerability of Farming Communities
to Drought and Climate Change
WHY? 41% of the world’s land area, home to 2.5 billion people ; widespread poverty, food insecurity, and
environmental degradation
EXPECTED IMPACTS
• In six years, 20–30% increase in agricultural productivity in high-potential target areas; 10–20% in low potential
areas
• Out-scaling of technologies will have wider impact, improving standard of living for many more people
• 87 million people living in dryland systems will have improved and more secure incomes
Action sites: West Africa, East and Southern Africa, North Africa, West Asia, Central Asia, South Asia
11. Dryland Systems
Targeted region-specific outcomes
• West Africa: Increased plant and livestock productivity, and rural
livelihoods through improved nutrient availability and water-use efficiency
reducing lean periods and risk of system shocks.
• East and Southern Africa: Increased productivity, income, and resilience
among pastoralists through better crop-livestock integration and more
efficient use of soil, water and other natural resources.
• North Africa and West Asia: Improved technology transfer to farmers and
agro-pastoralists for better food, feed, health practices, and animal breeds
using better policies, market access, financial tools, and extension
systems.
• Central Asia: Improvements in mixed agricultural systems to improve
productivity, human nutrition and rural employment, through integrated
water and land resources management.
• South Asia: Increased biomass production to provide food, feed, and
reverse land degradation, reducing household vulnerability to price and
climate shocks.
12. More meat, milk and fish, by and for the poor
WHY?
• Animal-source foods provide critical inputs to the health of women and children
• Nearly 1 billion (70%) of the world’s 1.4 billion extremely poor people depend on livestock.
• 400 million people in Africa and South Asia depend on fish for most of their animal protein
• 156 million landless people keep livestock
• Two-thirds of the world’s livestock keepers are rural women
EXPECTED OUTCOMES
• Dairy and pigs: double productivity and incomes in target value chains
• Aquaculture: increase fish consumption by 20% in target value chains
• Goats and sheep: increase productivity to double incomes in target value chains
13. Concept
More meat, milk and fish by and for the poor
o Pro-poor transformation of selected value chains
o Food security with poverty reduction
o Managing the transition of structural transformation
Value proposition
We can accelerate AR4D to impact at scale
14. What’s new

2. Addressing the whole value chain
16. What’s new
Accelerating AR4D to impact at scale
1. Focus in only a few selected value chains
2. Addressing the whole value chain
3. Partnering with development actors to identify problems
and solutions, generate evidence, and attract investment
4. End target: achieve impact at scale in large development

19. Livestock and Fish – Progress & Results
• Multi-stakeholder Dairy Development Forum
established in Tanzania to identify systemic
dairy industry bottlenecks and co-create
solutions. Key platform for impact pathway
• Rapid value chain assessment toolkit and
associated participatory feed resource
methods developed and tested in Ethiopia,
India, Tanzania and Uganda. Methodology
innovation.
• ‘Abbassa’ improved line of Nile tilapia showing
28% greater harvest weight than the ‘best’
commercial strain currently in use in Egypt.
Technology putting money in producers’
pockets.
• Thermostable vaccine for peste des petits
ruminants (PPR) developed and under
production. Technology to benefit poorest
and most vulnerable.
20. How do we partner better?
• Establish a more systematic role of the CGIAR as IFAD’s
knowledge partner: win-win for both!
• Harvest better lessons from IFAD loan project to scale out
– CG can help identify, track, test, and validate innovations in projects
– Use the CG to help capture the learnings from projects: what works,
what doesn’t, and why?
– CG can contribute to knowledge and learning networks (country,
thematic, regional)
21. How do we partner better?
• Feed research results into IFAD loan projects to scale out
– Involve CG partners in the planning of investment programs to make
full use of technology and institutional innovations from CG and
partners
– CG can carry out cross country learning reviews and assessments of
key opportunities/issues
– Establish capacity to continuously review emerging CG research results
into ongoing IFAD projects
– Use CG to provide capacity, training, mentoring support and training
materials/guides to IFAD and its partners
– For bigger problems, target CGIAR TAG/research projects more
strategically with country projects in implementation
– Together, develop an evidence-based policy agenda to foster an
enabling national environment for uptake of our innovations
22. Discussion
• Any direct feedback on what you heard on the three CRPs?
• What specific products or opportunities do you look for from
research, especially the CGIAR?
– Country-specific?
– Across-countries?
