Replicating successful agricultural water management interventions in new locations requires consideration of economic, biophysical, institutional, and cultural data. The TAGMI tool offers one way to consider such factors, when targeting agricultural water management interventions.
Innovation platforms provide spaces for a wide range of stakeholders to exchange knowledge, learn, and develop joint initiatives to solve agricultural development challenges. Successful innovation can only happen when stakeholders have a sustained interest in working together to acquire new…
Trade-offs between agricultural intensification and the health status of aquatic ecosystems have to be thoroughly considered in order to ensure the sustainability of these socio-eco-agro-ecosystems.
Successful integrated water resources management depends on interactions between multiple actors at different scales, which is often beyond everyday considerations. The companion modeling-approach is a good framework to highlight interactions between actors and allows for a collective decision-…
High-quality scientific research, grounded in regular engagement with stakeholders, will improve the uptake of research results and lead to outcomes.
