General presentation of the Decision and Policy Analysis Program from the International Centre for Tropical Agriculture (CIAT).

1. TheDecision and PolicyAnalysisProgram

2. Our vision We strongly believe in the power of information for making better decisions about agricultural and natural resource investments, from the farm- to the global- level. Numbers. Maps. Graphs. Insights. Better public and private policies

3. Our modus operandi Thematically diverse, united by spatial, economic and institutional analysis Converting data to information to policy and decision insights Demand-driven by other CIAT programs and partners needs in Latin America Eco-efficiency as a guiding principle

8. Our themes Output 1: Impact assessment for targeting, documenting and increasing the effectiveness of research and development Output 2: Policy guidelines, tools and innovations for managing ecosystem services to the benefit of the rural poor Output 3: Estimated impacts of climate change on agricultural systems, and identification of adaptation pathways for the rural poor Output 4: Policy guidelines and innovations to ensure pro-poor and equitable supply chains in the face of a highly dynamic world

11. Theme 2 - Ecosystem Services Facilitating Impact Team (FIT) To improve the engagement processes and socialization mechanisms of CIAT’s research with their stakeholders throughout the project cycle and contribute to scaling out and up of research outputs. Increase the effectiveness of research and development activities through the use of knowledge sharing principles, tools, methods and monitoring methodologies.

18. Worldwide cassava production climatic constraints Grey areas are the crop’s main niche. Blue areas constrained by precipitation Yellow-orange constrained by temperature

19. Impact of climate change on cassava suitable environments Global cassava suitability will increase 5.1% on average by 2050… but many areas of Latin America suffer negative impacts

20. …….and for Latin America?Drought or flooding tolerance 2.23m Ha of current production 2.1m Ha of new land would become suitable for cassava 30% of current cassava fields would benefit from enhanced drought or flooding tolerance 1.6m Ha still suffering climatic constraint

21. …….and for Latin America?Heat or cold tolerance 2.23m Ha of current production 2.2m Ha of new land would become suitable for cassava 27% of current cassava fields would benefit from enhanced cold or heat tolerance

24. BIG markets and BIG marketopportunities What public and private policies and organisational arrangements are needed for the poor to benefit from international markets in a globalised world? Effective and sustained farm to market links require three components: Farmers that are attractive partners for market actors Market actors willing to invest in working with small producers An effective enabling environment to support / govern these links
