Abstract

In 2015, the CGIAR Research Program on Dryland Systems produced 139 journal articles (89 indexed by ISI), 8 books, 17 book chapters, several working papers (134), datasets (62), proceedings (61) and various other publications including policy, technical briefs and social media outputs (144), presenting totally 565 published knowledges and information products. A clear move toward the examination of new system approaches emerges from this body of scientific knowledge with 67 journal articles (48,5% of the total published journal articles) presenting multidisciplinary and/or integrated systems researches. We expect the system approaches to generate greater public awareness on agricultural livelihood issues in dryland areas and to reshape the traditional thinking about key performance determinants of dryland agro-ecosystems as well as prompt relevant responses in order to meet the challenges faced by rural dryland communities.
