1. Excellence in Agronomy 2030: A new CGIAR-wide initiative to deliver agronomy solutions at scale

Required increases in crop production and productivity in sub-Saharan Africa (SSA) will not happen without the increased use of appropriate agronomic practices. While several thousand new varieties of nearly all key crops have been produced in the past decade, recent increases in yields in specific countries have only happened when such varieties received the right agro-inputs and management. That said, agronomy is often highlighted as an area that has not delivered impact at scale in SSA, or... B. Vanlauwe, T. Amede, F. Baudron, P. Chivenge, M. Devare, K. Saito, J. Kihara, V. Nangia, P.

2. Climate Smart Agriculture: Constraints, Challenges and Opportunities to Promote the System in Ethiopia

Agriculture is vital to the economy of Ethiopia and its development has significant implications for food security and poverty reduction. An increase in agricultural production over the past decades has been due to land area expansion, with a modest change in production techniques and improvement in yields. Yet, the substantial reliance of the sector on rain-fed systems has made it particularly vulnerable to variability in rainfall and temperature and climate change. Climate change may decrease... G.
