This book was released on 2017-06-25 with total page 56 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This report assesses trends in investments, human resource capacity, and outputs in agricultural research in SSA, excluding the private (for-profit) sector. The analysis uses information collected by Agricultural Science and Technology Indicators (ASTI)—led by the International Food Policy Research Institute (IFPRI) within the portfolio of the CGIAR Research Program on Policies, Institutions, and Markets (PIM). The comprehensive datasets were derived from primary surveys, collected through a series of consecutive data collection rounds; a small number of secondary sources, where survey data were missing or of poor quality; and ASTI’s older investment and human resource datasets. This report highlights the cross-cutting trends and challenges that emerged from the country-level data, structuring it within four broad areas: funding capacity, human resource capacity, research outputs, and institutional conditions—all in terms of whether they support or impede the effective and efficient conduct of agricultural research. This report concludes with a set of policy recommendations for regional and national-level decision makers, and other stakeholders.

This book was released on 2003-01-26 with total page 269 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This report is a congressionally mandated review of the US Department of Agriculture's Research, Education, and Economics (REE) mission area, the main engine of publicly funded agricultural research in the United States. A changing social and scientific context of agriculture requires a new vision of agricultural research-one that will support agriculture as a positive economic, social, and environmental force. REE is uniquely positioned to advance new research frontiers in environment, public health, and rural communities. The report recommends that REE be more anticipatory and strategic in its use of limited resources and guide and champion new directions in research.

Download or read book Agricultural extension Global status and performance in selected countries Synopsis written by Davis, Kristin E., ed. and published by Intl Food Policy Res Inst. This book was released on 2020-09-02 with total page 4 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Agricultural transformation and development are critical to the livelihoods of more than a billion small-scale farmers and other rural people in developing countries. Extension and advisory services play an important role in such transformation and can assist farmers with advice and information, brokering and facilitating innovations and relationships, and dealing with risks and disasters. Agricultural Extension: Global Status and Performance in Selected Countries provides a global overview of agricultural extension and advisory services, assesses and compares extension systems at the national and regional levels, examines the performance of extension approaches in a selected set of country cases, and shares lessons and policy insights. Drawing on both primary and secondary data, the book contributes to the literature on extension by applying a common and comprehensive framework — the “best-fit” approach — to assessments of extension systems, which allows for comparison across cases and geographies. Insights from the research support reforms — in governance, capacity, management, and advisory methods — to improve outcomes, enhance financial sustainability, and achieve greater scale. Agricultural Extension should be a valuable resource for policymakers, extension practitioners, and others concerned with agricultural development.

Download or read book Aid and Agricultural Extension written by Michael W. P. Baxter and published by World Bank Publications. This book was released on 1989 with total page 90 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The paper opens with brief examinations of the process of agricultural extension, and the different forms of publicly provided extension services. An extensive review of the common ways of organizing extension emphasizes the similarities and differences between, and strengths and weaknesses of, rural extension, commodity based extension and extension services founded in Universities. The World Bank is shown to have supported all types of extension. The scale of that support and the Bank's role and aims in providing it are examined at some length. The achievements of other donors are similarly examined. Several important aspects of extension are identified which require careful treatment in designing or modifying extension systems. The importance of a stable agricultural policy environment is emphasized along with the need for a robust yet flexible research system. Further drawing on work done by the World Bank and elsewhere, some important economic issues in developing, implementing, monitoring and evaluating extension projects are reviewed. The paper closes by drawing a series of conclusions relevent to the formulation of agricultural extension policy and notes some areas where further study and analysis are needed.
