There is a paucity of scientific information regarding gender norms and social transformation in the Sub-Saharan region. This has contributed to the insufficient articulation of gender issues in the proposed agricultural programmes and visions, such as the African Union’s Agenda 2063 and the Malabo Declaration. These efforts premise the transformation of the African continent on the foundation of the agricultural sector, a critical pillar in most countries in Sub-Saharan Africa.

In this paper we present analysis on the recent historical trend in agriculture in the Eastern and Southern Africa (ESA) region, along with analysis of recent historical trends in temperature and precipitation. We also present 5 climate models and describe the possible future climates associated with these. We use these climate models with crop models -- for seven crops -- and bioeconomic models to further assess the impact on agricultural productivity throughout the region and how the agricultural sector will transform through 2050.

In the Solomon Islands, more than 80% of the population are rural dwellers who commonly build
livelihoods from subsistence agriculture and fisheries. Indigenous people own more than 80% of the
land including the shorelines. Recognizing this customary land tenure, the Solomon Islands Government
has decided that Community Based Resource Management (CBRM) is the main strategy for coastal
resource management in the country (sometimes also referred to as CBFM or Community Based

The only specialized multilateral development institution focused exclusively on rural development, IFAD has successfully used agriculture as a means of poverty reduction – contributing ~USD 22 billion in funding to date1 . About 90% of IFAD's portfolio is focused on Low to Middle Income (LMI) countries. IFAD stands out with its nutrition and gender-sensitive lenses coupled with investments in climate resilient agriculture – mainstreaming nutrition, gender, and climate change work in agriculture.

This working paper presents the results of a study commissioned by the International Centre for
Tropical Agriculture (CIAT) under the Grass2Cash project whose primary objective was to understand
the underlying reasons why farmers adopt ten improved forage varieties in the four Western Kenya
counties of Kakamega, Bungoma, Busia and Siaya. A gendered perspective to the motivations and
challenges of adoption, and a review of the project assumptions were secondary objectives. A total of

This training manual provides knowledge and skills to government extension officers and lead farmers on the concept of climate smart agriculture to empower them to train farmers on appropriate technologies, innovations and management practices against climate change risks

The youth unemployment situation is an essential component of the current agricultural policy agenda of the Federal Government of Nigeria. Deep-rooted debates on finding a lasting solution to this problem using agriculture have been targeted as one of the panaceas. Using data from 207 systematically selected rice-producing households, this study employed the Propensity Score Matching method (PSM) and the Inverse Probability Weighted Regression Adjustment method (IPWRA) to examine the effect of intensive youth participation in agriculture on productivity and household revenue in Nigeria.

This Digital Agriculture Profile for Côte D’Ivoire leverages the expertise of stakeholders to evaluate the current landscape of digital agriculture in Côte D’Ivoire, including its key players across value chains, the main barriers they face, and the potential to overcome these barriers through the adoption of innovative technologies.
