Description
Summary:The Evidence for Resilient Agriculture (ERA), created by ICRAF together with partners, is a meta-data set and analytical engine that uses the last 40 years of agricultural research in Africa to predict productivity, resilience and greenhouse gas emission impacts when switching from one farming technology to another. In 2019, ERA was a critical data source for the development of four climate-smart agriculture investment plans for Mali, Côte d’Ivoire, Ghana and Burkina Faso and supported the design of three adaptation plans in three Kenyan counties.
