Use of Conservation Agriculture in Crop-Livestock Systems (CLCA) in the Drylands for Enhanced Water Use and Soil Fertility in NEN and LAC Countries

Start date
13 Apr 2018
End date
30 Jun 2022

The project has been designed to combine an adaptive research program, including integrated capacity development, with the active development of a delivery mechanism for CLCA systems to serve as impact accelerators in both targeted regions. The adaptive research component will include a subcomponent, which involves extensive socioeconomic and market data collection to be used for optimizing adapted CLCA packages for different agroecologies and socioeconomic contexts.

Geoinformatics for designing inclusive cropping systems for sustainable agriculture in Madhya Pradesh

Start date
01 Apr 2018
End date
31 Mar 2020
Agroecosystems in Madhya Pradesh host an enormous variety of biophysical environments with extremely contrast socio-economic, demographic, and unique cropping systems. However, there is lack of systematic and timely (near-real time) information on the cropping system dynamics, crop diversity, rotation, intensity, granularity and options for sustainable interventions at multiple scales. Addressing agricultural development challenges faced by smallholders and strategic decision makers without...
