African Farmers, Value Chains, and African DevelopmentIFPRI-PIM
PIM Webinar/Book Launch, December 9, 2021.
At first glance, African smallholder farmers might seem unproductive, as their crops yield much less than potential and are often of variable quality. A new PIM-supported book “African Farmers, Value Chains, and Agricultural Development” argues that in fact they are largely producing following rational economic decisions, and that this situation is a consequence of the economic and institutional environment in which they produce. The authors Alan de Brauw and Erwin Bulte discuss ways that different types of transaction costs limit their market opportunities in general, including transport costs but also costs related to different sources of risks, trust, market power, liquidity, and even storage.

Inclusive and Efficient Value Chains: Innovations, Scaling, and Way ForwardIFPRI-PIM
In the CGIAR Research Program on Policies, Institutions, and Markets (PIM), market and related aspects have been mostly addressed by PIM Flagship 3: Inclusive and Efficient Value Chains. The team has been focusing on the evolving international, regional, and local contexts for agricultural markets, and investigating how value chains (VC) can be strengthened to generate more benefits for smallholders and small and medium enterprises (SMEs), with differentiated opportunities for women, men, and youth. In this webinar on 22 November 2021, the team presented key findings from the Flagship’s work in 2017-2021 in three areas: 1) value chain innovations, 2) use of value chains for scaling CGIAR solutions, and 3) interactions between research and practice for value chain development.

Nutraceutical market, scope and growth: Herbal drug technologyLokesh Patil
As consumer awareness of health and wellness rises, the nutraceutical market—which includes goods like functional meals, drinks, and dietary supplements that provide health advantages beyond basic nutrition—is growing significantly. As healthcare expenses rise, the population ages, and people want natural and preventative health solutions more and more, this industry is increasing quickly. Further driving market expansion are product formulation innovations and the use of cutting-edge technology for customized nutrition. With its worldwide reach, the nutraceutical industry is expected to keep growing and provide significant chances for research and investment in a number of categories, including vitamins, minerals, probiotics, and herbal supplements.
This presentation explores a brief idea about the structural and functional attributes of nucleotides, the structure and function of genetic materials along with the impact of UV rays and pH upon them.
The ability to recreate computational results with minimal effort and actionable metrics provides a solid foundation for scientific research and software development. When people can replicate an analysis at the touch of a button using open-source software, open data, and methods to assess and compare proposals, it significantly eases verification of results, engagement with a diverse range of contributors, and progress. However, we have yet to fully achieve this; there are still many sociotechnical frictions.
Inspired by David Donoho's vision, this talk aims to revisit the three crucial pillars of frictionless reproducibility (data sharing, code sharing, and competitive challenges) with the perspective of deep software variability.
Our observation is that multiple layers — hardware, operating systems, third-party libraries, software versions, input data, compile-time options, and parameters — are subject to variability that exacerbates frictions but is also essential for achieving robust, generalizable results and fostering innovation. I will first review the literature, providing evidence of how the complex variability interactions across these layers affect qualitative and quantitative software properties, thereby complicating the reproduction and replication of scientific studies in various fields.
I will then present some software engineering and AI techniques that can support the strategic exploration of variability spaces. These include the use of abstractions and models (e.g., feature models), sampling strategies (e.g., uniform, random), cost-effective measurements (e.g., incremental build of software configurations), and dimensionality reduction methods (e.g., transfer learning, feature selection, software debloating).
I will finally argue that deep variability is both the problem and solution of frictionless reproducibility, calling the software science community to develop new methods and tools to manage variability and foster reproducibility in software systems.

4. Make the innovation process more efficient with multiple
stakeholders and at multiple levels
To bring partners together, provide information, and organize space for
interaction to overcome knowledge gaps in relation to innovation processes for
value chain development and other related topics
Demand articulation
Multiple needs and demands for
innovation:
• Methodologies and approaches,
• Policies
• Funding
Network formation
Linkages between relevant actors:
• Identification of partners and
knowledges sources
• Engagement of partners around
concrete needs for innovation
Innovation process management:
• Implementation of potential
research plans
• Support to the KM process
• Influence policies
• M&E
5. Structure and governance of the hub
National level
• Working with the national Hub, in the case of Peru, the Learning Alliance Peru (LAP) ,which
has a national coordinator and has the support of a technical secretariat that is
coordinating the activities of different working groups dealing with research, development
and policy issues of the Agriculture sector development including value chains.
• The national hub is promoting knowledge exchange and in some cases support specific
studies
Regional level
• Regional Hub as an R4D platforms with a coordinator part-time assumed by CIP
to:
• Coordinate the implementation of the Hub in the Andes, the interaction with the
Learning Alliance Peru (LAP), other national platforms and CGIAR centers members of
PIM. And Support horizontal exchange with Hubs in central America and Africa
• Support the implementation of research projects and specific studies,
• Develop the KM process, link to PIM tools4valuechains.org website, publications,…
• Implement an M&E process
• Open Hub to new partners including other CRPs and links with other countries in the
region
6. Hub value proposition to partners
• Develop demand-driven provision of high quality methods, tools and
approaches to add value and improve the effectiveness of PIM and CGIAR
interventions
– The Value Chain approaches are one entry point to develop the interaction with
partners and address broader topics such as innovation and advocacy.
• The evidence generated through the hub based on the interaction with
partners will feed into processes of policy dialog at the national level to
improve decisions by key actors.
• The hub will build the capacity of development actors for better design
and implement their programs;
• The hub will provide evidence for scaling effective interventions taking
advantage of the policy dialogue and promoting knowledge exchange.
• Trough the Hub, implement M&E tools to monitor and assess the Hub
contribution to achieve impact in a more efficient way.
7. Steps for
implementation
of the Hub in the
Andes
1. Identification of potential key partners in Peru to assess their level of interest in the
Hub approach, take advantage of the Learning Alliance in Peru (LAP) as a pilot CoP.
2. Convene meetings with LAP partners to facilitate a dialogue around
the concept of the hub and to structure a collaboration approach.
3. Discussion and analysis of existing LAP partners’ work to
identify key knowledge and capacity development needs
4. Support the systematization of the LAP to identify
gaps and prioritize topics for implementing one or
more research actions and learning cycles.
5. Develop the Hub M&E process, to assess the effects along the
innovation chain in line with the PIM/VC IDOs
7. Report results from the hub implementation and the joint actions in Peru to make
adjustments to the concept, to improve the process and open it to new partners
including other CRPs, other countries and regions
6. Exchange of experiences with the Hub in Central America.
8. The Learning Alliance in Peru (LAP)
• LAP was created by CIAT and has been active
for more then 10 years:
– promoting knowledge sharing among partners
– Influence on the design and adjustment of national
policies (farmers’ associativity mechanisms included
as a national strategy, contributions to a value chain
Regulation for "Law to Strengthen Supply Chain” by
the Ministry of Agriculture)
– LAP Recognition in other countries of LAC
(Nicaragua)
• LAP has been interacting directly with CIAT
and has been collaborating with CIP in
different projects.
• LAP is interested to join the PIM/VC R4D
platforms
• Support from PIM/VC in Systematization
