V3: Integrated Management of Small Reservoirs for Multiple Uses
V3 project focuses on integrated management options at local scale for small reservoirs (SR), in a multiple use context. Integrated management of SR can aim at several objectives: (i) perpetuating infrastructures, obvious condition for socio-agro-ecosystem durability; (ii) protecting and if necessary improving the water quality for the various uses; (iii) reaching and enhancing water productivity potentials; (iv) seeking for equity (pro-poor position).

Unlocking the potential of livestock technologies in Ethiopia: Shifting from individual pieces to optimizing the sum of the parts
The reasons why farmers are unable to harness the benefits embedded in technologies and take advantage of business opportunities in livestock sector in developing countries remain unresolved. Drawing on insights from innovation systems approaches, this paper assesses innovation constraints, identifies the bottlenecks and missing links in dairy sector and suggests some instruments needed to address the constraints.
Valuing water in irrigated agriculture and reservoir fisheries: a multiple-use irrigation system in Sri Lanka
Although irrigation projects often provide water for more than crop irrigation, water allocation and management decisions often do not account for nonirrigation uses of water. Failure to account for the multiple uses of irrigation water may result in inefficient and inequitable water allocation decisions. Decision-makers often lack information on the relative economic contributions of water in irrigation and nonirrigation uses. This report addresses this problem.

V5: Coordination and Change
The Coordination Project V5 will ensure coherence amongst the other 4 Volta BDC Projects, manage their interdependence and data protocols in such a way to allow smooth running of the program and also monitor and evaluate the quality of research outputs. Through communication strategies to be developed, V5 will assist in linking projects with policy makers and other stakeholders to create opportunities that will enrich the research process and subsequently the uptake of research outputs
