Operationalizing inclusive innovation: Lessons from innovation platforms in livestock value chains in India and Mozambique
Various authors have identified the potential relevance of innovation system approaches for inclusive innovation, that is, the means by which new goods and services are developed for and by the poor. However, it is still ...
A Human Machine Hybrid Approach for Systematic Reviews and Maps in International Development and Social Impact Sectors
The international development and social impact evidence community is divided about the use of machine-centered approaches in carrying out systematic reviews and maps. While some researchers argue that machine-centered ...
Soyabean response to rhizobium inoculation across sub-Saharan Africa: Patterns of variation and the role of promiscuity
Improving bacterial nitrogen fixation in grain legumes is central to sustainable intensification of agriculture in sub-Saharan Africa. In the case of soyabean, two main approaches have been pursued: first, promiscuous ...
Classification and salt tolerance analysis of barley varieties
Six varieties of barley (Hordeum vulgare), five of which were provided by ICARDA, were tested in a green house experiment for their salt tolerance. Afterwards the ICARDA variety Melusine, selected from this experiment for ...
Livestock Innovations, Social Norms, and Women’s Empowerment in the Global South
Livestock have strong empowerment potential, particularly for women. They offer millions
of women in the Global South the opportunity to provide protein-rich foods for home consumption
and sale. Livestock provide women ...
Genome-wide association mapping of frost tolerance in barley (Hordeum vulgare L.)
Background: Frost tolerance is a key trait with economic and agronomic importance in barley because it is a major
component of winter hardiness, and therefore limits the geographical distribution of the crop and the ...
