Performing Readiness-to-Scale Analysis of Healthy Diet Innovations in West, Central and East Africa por Ndindeng,S.A., Nwilene, F., Bah, S., Twine, E., Tang, E., Savadogo, E., Tchatcha, D., Ndungu, J., Kittika, M., Faye, F., Dembele, A., Konan, G.

“…The activity addressed a critical scaling gap: while numerous nutrition-sensitive and rice-based innovations exist, evidence on their maturity, actual use, and readiness for expansion has often been fragmented or absent, limiting strategic scaling and investment decisions. Using the CGIAR Scaling Readiness framework, AfricaRice led the identification, documentation, and assessment of 55 healthy diet innovation packages, covering products, technologies, processes, and services across production, processing, marketing, and consumption. …”

Fertilizer subsidies versus soil health payments: does policy incentives framing matter por Oyinbo, Oyakhilomen, Chamberlin, Jordan

“…However, we also find that higher yield risk and larger labor requirements are significant barriers that strongly shape their investment decisions. More importantly, we find that relative to the less flexible fertilizer subsidy policy framing, more flexible policy supports in the form of soil health payment framing substantially increase farmer valuations of soil health improvement and other cropping attributes. …”

Crise economique et changements politiques en Indonesie: premiers effets sur le secteur forestier por Sunderlin, William D.

“…The author reviews the likely effects on the forest sector. (1) Decreased demand for Indonesian plywood from main importers (Japan, South Korea and Taiwan) is largely compensated by increased demand from other countries and Malaysia's decision to restrict its wood product exports. (2) Expansion of agriculture will occur partly at the expense of forest cover: spontaneous clearing by farmers, and large scale clearings for agro-industry plantations, mainly oil palm, then cocoa, coffee, rubber trees, pepper, as well as shrimp ponds in mangroves. (3) Transmigration will probably not slow down, foreign aid compensating for the decline of State aid. (4) Unemployed people in the urban sector migrate to rural areas, and young people in the rural areas remain there which may increase pressure on forests for three reasons: a) incentives to expand plantations for export; b) incentives to produce food crops locally (rice, maize, soya) to reduce imports; c) shortage of capital for inputs, that may encourage extensive agriculture. (5) Expansion of mining in forest areas (coal, iron, and nickel) may lead to degradation of important protection forests. (6) The likely slowdown of major road programmes will reduce their direct and indirect impacts on forests. (7) Policy changes as a prerequisite to IMF loans will have negative effects on forest conservation when they encourage plantations for export (oil palms). (8) President Habibie has launched a wave of policy reforms to remedy former abuses in granting timber concessions, and the resulting forest deterioration. …”
