ISPC Commentary on the proposal CRP 3
ثبت نشده
چکیده
The ISPC reviewed CRP 3.6 on Dryland Cereals in parallel with CRP 3.5 (on grain legumes) and noted many similarities in the basic characteristics of the programs and in their management and governance construct. Both CRPs are led by ICRISAT, and both propose research on a set of crops that are in the CGIAR Centers’ current research portfolio. In addition, both are similar in having to rationalize the budget (i.e. more for less) typically in relatively harsh, high risk, rainfed environments. In consequence, there are several areas where the ISPC’s observations in the commentaries to these two CRPs are similar.

Issues related to narrowing the focus (fewer product lines), clearer articulation and justification of impact pathways and more ...

متن کاملISPC Commentary on the Proposal for CRP 3.5 Grain Legumes
CRP 3.5 is a comprehensive proposal built around combined research on eight grain legumes (GLs) – groundnut, soybean, chickpea, cowpea, common bean, pigeon pea, lentil, and faba bean – proposed by four CGIAR Centres (ICARDA, ICRISAT, IITA and CIAT) and by several NARES (India, Brazil, Turkey and Ethiopia). These crops are important dietary staples and sources of income for farmers in many, low ...
