Informe final: Priorizando inversiones en agricultura sostenible adaptada al clima en Guatemala
Senegal, with 196,712 km2 land area, is located at the extreme west of the African continent (Longitudes 11°21W - 17°32N and Latitudes 12°8N - 16°41N). The country’s soils are in general of low fertility, fragile and very susceptible to wind and water erosion. The climate is of Sudano-Sahelian ty...

The Andean blackberry (Rubus glaucus) is an important source of income in hillside regions of Colombia.
However, growers have little reliable information on the factors that affect the development and yield of
the crop, and therefore there is a dearth of information onhowto effectively manage the...

Large agricultural development projects often struggle to achieve impact because they lack costeffective systems for capturing regular feedback from implementers and beneficiaries. Even when they use a participatory approach, they cannot easily take into account a large range of farmers’ needs an...
