For the past years since the Consultative Group of International Agricultural Research (CGIAR) Systemwide Initiative on Participatory Research and Gender Analysis (PRGA) was initiated, guides for impact assessment of PRGA have been developed (Lilja and Ashby 1999; Johnson et.al., 2000; Lilja and ...


Ceccarelli, SalvatoreGrando, StefaniaBaum, M[Participatory plant breeding in water-limited environment]Participatory plant breeding in water-limited environment

Participatory plant breeding is seen by several scientists as a way to overcome the limitations of conventional breeding by offering farmers the possibility of deciding which varieties better suit their needs and conditions without exposing them to any risk. It exploits the potential gains of bre...


Mustafa, YasminCeccarelli, SalvatoreGrando, Stefania[Benefit-cost analysis of participatory breeding program in Syria]Benefit-cost analysis of participatory breeding program in Syria

In the three villages selected in the project area in the Northern Highlands and described in the 2000 reports, the farmers tested the barley and the lentil lines they selected during 2000.


Ceccarelli, Salvatore[Village Based Participatory Breeding in the Mountain Slopes of Yemen]Village Based Participatory Breeding in the Mountain Slopes of Yemen

Breeding philosophies and methodologies developed for favorable conditions and high-input agriculture have been ineffective in generating improved cultivars for marginal conditions and low-input agriculture. The project is implementing a novel breeding approach for barley improvement in the low-p...

Conventional modern plant breeding has been recognized to be more beneficial to farmers in high potential environments or those who could profitably modify their environment to suit new cultivars, than to the poorest farmers who could not afford to make the necessary modifications. As a consequen...

It is widely recognized that conventional plant breeding has been more beneficial to farmers in high potential environments or those who could profitably modify their environment to suit new cultivars, than to the poorest farmers who could not afford to modify their environment through the applic...


Ceccarelli, SalvatoreGrando, Stefania[Decentralized participatory plant breeding]Decentralized participatory plant breeding

This report, presented by Dr. Salvatore Ceccarelli from ICARDA, describes a model of participatory plant breeding in which genetic variability is generated by professional breeders, selection is conducted jointly by breeders, extension specialists and farmers in a number of target environments, a...
