Dramatically increased accessibility and decreased cost- per-person impacts are needed for scaling IPM in Africa por Bello-Bravo, J., Medendorp, J., Lutomia, Anne Namatsi, Reeves, N.P., Celi, V.G., Tamò, Manuele, Pittendrigh, B.R.

“…This paper describes one such systems-approach scaling platform, Scientific Animations Without Borders, which effectively elicited end-user solution-adoption and decreased unit costs over increasing scales in three African countries during COVID-19. How to scale game-changing IPM insights ‘off the shelf’ and ‘into people’s hands in the field’ is also discussed.…”

Supply response of West African agricultural households: implications of intrahousehold preference heterogeneity por Smith, Lisa C., Chavas, Jean-Paul

“…This paper explores the implications of preference heterogeneity between wives and husbands in nonresource-pooling rural West African households for the effect of crop price changes on agricultural production, i.e., their supply response. A semi-cooperative game-theoretic model of household decisionmaking, in which household members make unilateral time and income allocation decisions and negotiate over who controls these resources, is proposed. …”

Collaborative Solutions: Leveraging Artificial Intelligence for Resilient Agriculture, Energy, and Risk Systems in Africa por African Climate Policy Centre, Accelerating Impacts of CGIAR Climate Research for Africa, United Nations Office for Disaster Risk Reduction

“…The main takeaways are: • Materials innovation, EO, and AI offer game-changing possibilities for precision farming, renewable energy optimization, disaster risk reduction, and resilient infrastructure. • Africa should transition from passive technology recipient to co-creator, but success depends on human capital, inclusive governance, ethical standards, financing, and continental collaboration. • Youth engagement, citizen-centric approaches, and locally grounded co-creation are critical for equitable deployment. • South-South and intra-African cooperation provide replicable models for scaling, knowledge sharing, and avoiding duplication. …”
