This document provides an overview of the Interest-free Agriculture E-Credit Scheme in Punjab, Pakistan, which aims to provide 500,000 small farmers with loans of up to PKR 100 billion over 5 years. Akhuwat has been allocated PKR 2 billion to disburse loans in selected districts. As of October 2017, Akhuwat had disbursed over 41,000 loans totaling PKR 2.292 billion with a 100% recovery rate. The scheme offers digital financial services and training to promote financial and digital inclusion among farmers.

Farm Business Update 2014: Aylsham, CFE and CAP Greening updateCLA - East
The Campaign for the Farmed Environment (CFE) will work closely with farmers and environmental groups to deliver local environmental targets through farmer-led local groups. CFE provides information and advice to help farmers navigate new Common Agricultural Policy (CAP) requirements around crop diversification, permanent grassland, and ecological focus areas (greening). A new agricultural policy scheme will integrate existing programs and focus funding on competitive, targeted options at landscape scales. CFE supports farmers by providing information to help meet environmental goals and new CAP rules in a flexible way.
This document discusses DBI's approach to developing small, low-cost irrigation systems called "Phad systems" in the Vidarbha region of India. Phad systems traditionally divert flowing water from rivers or streams through pipelines or open channels to irrigate nearby fields. DBI has constructed 80 Phad systems across 26 villages, irrigating over 1150 hectares of land. The average cost to develop a Phad system is 12,000 rupees per hectare, much lower than conventional irrigation methods. Phad systems have increased crop production and yields, with a reported cost-benefit ratio of 1:1.7. The document outlines the objectives, technical features, achievements and scope for expanding these small-

1. The document provides guidance on conducting an economic sector study for comprehensive land use planning. It involves assessing the current state and growth patterns of the local economy to strengthen economic activities sustainably.
2. Key areas of analysis include employment, production volume and value, land utilization, infrastructure, and marketing facilities. The framework analyzes the economic structure, contributions, drivers, locations, trends, strengths/weaknesses/opportunities/threats, and support for economic activities.
3. Within the economic sector, the document outlines steps for analyzing the agriculture sub-sector, including data gathering on community needs and production statistics, and assessing existing conditions, support systems, employment, and policies regarding agricultural land.
This document discusses the potential for domestic offsetting schemes in Ireland, particularly within the agricultural and land use sectors. It outlines some key options for domestic offsetting projects, including afforestation, soil carbon sequestration, and agricultural emissions reductions. Measurement, reporting, and verification of emissions reductions is identified as a major challenge. The document considers the opportunities and issues to consider for developing domestic offsetting in a way that achieves cost-effective emissions reductions while maintaining environmental integrity.

The document summarizes the Cockermouth Neighbourhood Development Order in Cumbria, England. It describes four parts of the order: 1) Allowing commercial properties in Market Place to become restaurants, cafes, and bars and use public areas for outdoor seating. 2) Allowing upper floors of shops and offices to be converted into flats. 3) Allowing replacement of shopfronts with design guidelines. 4) Allowing replacement of windows and doors on houses in the conservation area with design guidelines. It then outlines the multi-year process of drafting, consulting on, examining, and approving the order through referendum, which passed with 60.7% support despite a low 19.3% turnout.

- Modulation was set at 12% and will be reviewed in 2017, but there will be no certification scheme. Details are still needed on Ecological Focus Areas (EFAs), the Active Farmer scheme, and dual use.
- Greening requirements include crop diversification, maintaining permanent grassland, and designating 5% of arable land as EFAs.
- Payment regions in England may be amended and money reallocated to send more funding to upland areas.
- The active farmer scheme exempts those with direct payments less than 5% of non-agricultural income or whose principal activity is not
CAP Reform Overview Workshop presentations - Swaffham, 7 March 2014CLA - East
The new CAP scheme will introduce changes beginning in 2015, including:
- The Basic Payment Scheme (BPS) will replace the Single Payment Scheme and make up 70% of payments, with the additional 30% coming from the Greening Payment.
- The Greening Payment requires crop diversification, maintaining ecological focus areas (EFAs) like buffer strips, and controlling permanent grasslands.
- A Young Farmers Payment provides up to a 25% top-up for new farmers.
- Farmers must meet "active farmer" criteria to qualify for payments.
The document discusses Ireland's proposed Eco-Scheme which will begin in 2023. It will be a voluntary annual scheme funded through Pillar 1 of the CAP. Farmers can choose from a list of 8 agricultural practices that provide benefits to the climate, environment, water quality and biodiversity. These practices include actions like increasing non-productive landscape features, limiting chemical nitrogen usage, planting trees/hedgerows, and sowing multi-species swards. The scheme aims to partially compensate farmers for income foregone or additional costs from participating. Administration will be integrated with BISS applications and payments are expected in late 2023.

The role of catchment management approaches is discussed as one option for addressing these issues, alongside water treatment and abstraction management. Current initiatives described include designated Safeguard Zones and risk mapping to target high risk areas and improve water quality in sources for drinking water supplies.

Farm Business Update 2014: Aylsham, Johnny Johnston and soil fertilityCLA - East
1) The document discusses soil fertility and the efficient use of fertilizers in crop production. It defines a fertile soil as one that produces high yields economically while minimizing environmental impact.
2) The document separates fertilizers into two groups - nitrogen and sulfur which are readily leached from soil, and phosphate, potash, and magnesium which accumulate in soil over time.
3) Maintaining adequate levels of plant-available phosphorus and potassium in soil is important for efficient nitrogen use by crops and maximizing yields. Good soil structure also promotes root growth and nutrient uptake.

Understanding User Needs and Satisfying ThemAggregage
https://www.productmanagementtoday.com/frs/26903918/understanding-user-needs-and-satisfying-them
We know we want to create products which our customers find to be valuable. Whether we label it as customer-centric or product-led depends on how long we've been doing product management. There are three challenges we face when doing this. The obvious challenge is figuring out what our users need; the non-obvious challenges are in creating a shared understanding of those needs and in sensing if what we're doing is meeting those needs.
In this webinar, we won't focus on the research methods for discovering user-needs. We will focus on synthesis of the needs we discover, communication and alignment tools, and how we operationalize addressing those needs.
Industry expert Scott Sehlhorst will:
• Introduce a taxonomy for user goals with real world examples
• Present the Onion Diagram, a tool for contextualizing task-level goals
• Illustrate how customer journey maps capture activity-level and task-level goals
• Demonstrate the best approach to selection and prioritization of user-goals to address
• Highlight the crucial benchmarks, observable changes, in ensuring fulfillment of customer needs
