Africa Research in sustainable intensification for next generation

Sustainable intensification of mixed crop livestock systems is a key pathway towards better food security, improved livelihoods and a healthy environment. As part of the US government’s Feed the Future initiative to address hunger and food security issues in sub-Saharan Africa, the US Agency for International Development (USAID) is supporting three multi-stakeholder agricultural research projects to sustainably intensify key African farming systems.

Africa RISING partners in Ghana recently held a hybrid review and planning to determine how the project will continue its research and developmental obligations going into 2021 in light of the COVID-19 challenges.

This Sept 2018 – Oct 2019 highlights important milestones and achievements in monitoring and evaluation and learning, capacity building, collaborations with development partners, and Africa RISING's knowledge outputs during the period.
