  1. CRP1.1Integrated Agricultural Production Systems for the Poor and Vulnerable in Dry Areas • Led by ICARDA • With: • ICRISAT, ILRI, ICRAF, IWMI, Bioversity, CIAT, CIP, WorldFish, (SSA-CP)

  2. Heterogeneous systems – development challenges • mitigating vulnerability or risk and increasing resilience • environmental sustainability, equity and economic growth as well as agricultural productivity  • Food security, poverty reduction and natural resource management important but sequencing depends on: • starting point • surrounding institutional, political and environmental circumstances • Diverse technical interventions, levered and added together • Impact demands: new research • integrating and capacity strengthening mechanisms • influence the delivery of technologies, access to markets, equity and economic balances, and regional, national and local policies

  3. Strategic research themes • SRT1: Approaches and models for strengthening innovation systems, building stakeholder innovation capacity and linking knowledge to policy action • SRT2: Reducing vulnerability and managing risk leading to resilient dryland agro-ecosystems with less vulnerable and improved livelihoods of rural communities • SRT 3 Sustainable intensification for more productive, profitable and diversified dryland agriculture with well-established linkages to markets • SRT4: Measuring impact and cross regional synthesis

  4. SRT 1 Better functioning innovation systems linked to policy 1.2 Capacity building 1.3 Policy 1.1 Innovation models SRT 3 Sustainable intensification SRT 2 Reduced vulnerability 2.1 Design 3.1 Design 2.2 Scaling out 3.2 Scaling out 3.3 Trade-offs 2.3 Trade-offs 4.1 Future scenarios 4.3 Measuring impact 4.2 Characterisation and prioritisation SRT 4 Targeting, synthesis and impact

  5. Regions and benchmark areas(“hubs” of activity) • East and Southern Africa • Rainfed agropastoral systems – Ethiopia, Kenya • Rainfed mixed crop-livestock - Zimbabwe, Mozambique, Malawi, South Africa • West and Central Africa • Sahelian Savanna – Niger and Northern Mali • Dry Savanna – Mali, Ghana, Burkina Faso • West Asia and North Africa • Irrigated – Egypt, Sudan, Iraq, Iran, Syria • Rainfed – Morocco, Tunisia, Algeria, Turkey, Syria • Arid-agropastoral – Jordan, Libya, Saudi Arabia, Syria • Central Asia • Mixed rainfed/irrigated – Uzbekistan, Kirgizstan, Tajikistan, Afghanistan • South Asia

  6. Next steps in 2011 • ICARDA submitted 28 February • If approved: • Small CG centre meeting to plan regional implementation • Inception meetings in each region • Develop operational plan
