Mr Howard Tembo, Chief Agriculture ResearchOfficer (CERO) from Zambia Agriculture Research Institute (ZARI)-HQ Lusaka, presented theoverallprojectobjectivesandworkshopagenda(Appendix1).LorraineChilipapresentedtherules of engagement. The total number of participants was 32, representing a variety oforganizations(seelistofparticipantsinAppendix2).

IntroductiontotheSAIRLAprojectstartedthroughadetailedexplanationoftheprojecttitleemphasizingonevidence,ecosystems,trade-offsandsustainableintensification.SAIRLAProjectAim:tobuildaninterdisciplinaryresearchprogrammetoincreasetheuptakeofcontext-appropriateSAIinnovationsinEastandsouthernAfricathroughevidencegeneration,dataanalyticsandthedevelopmentofinnovativetoolsforstakeholderengagementwith
evidence.It was also explained that the project is part of a larger programme: the SustainableAgricultural Intensification Research and Learning in Africa (SAIRLA) funded by the UKDepartment for Integrated Development fund and managed by WYG and University ofGreenwich. The overall programme is being implemented in six countries in Africa and theproject ledby theWorldAgroforestryCentre (ICRAF) isworking in three countries: Zambia,EthiopiaandTanzania.The project has a research focus and aims to address two key research questions.PrimaryQuestion:Howcan the trade-offs between increasedproductionandenvironmental impactbeanalysedandmanagedacrossdifferentscales?Secondary Question:What are the key policy processes?How canengagement structures,tools and metrics help decision makers create an enabling environment for resource-poorsmallholders, especially women and young people, to sustainably intensify agriculturalenterprises?BeforeshowingtheslidesontheprojectdefinitionofSAI,participantswereaskedtoshowbyraisingtheirhandsthosewhocoulddefineSAI.Onlyaboutfourparticipantsliftedtheirhands.Generally, their definition was for sustainable agriculture, highlighting practices related toincreased production per unit area sustainably. The project definition of SAI was thenpresented as approaches that increase food production in response to the demand of agrowingpopulationwhileconservingcriticalecosystemservices.TheneedforinterdisciplinaryapproachinSAIwashighlighted:• It is widely agreed that to accomplish these aims, a truly interdisciplinary approach is
needed.• Recent analyses show that key barriers to adoption of SAI by smallholders in SSA are
associatedwith,institutions,markets,policiesandtechnologies(Reardonetal.,2011).• Addressing these requires that SAI approaches embrace a farmer-centered approach,
encouragingconstructivecommunicationacrossmultiplestakeholders,developmentofaconducive policy environment (Barrett et al., 2002) and creative social learninginnovations, including co-learning with farmers and gender-transformative approaches(Prettyetal.,2011).

1. Atwhatscalearetheyoperating?We received responses from a few organizations and generally they were talking aboutsustainable agriculture or some components of SA such as conservation agriculture andagroforestry;andgenerallyworkingwithindividualfarmersorfarmergroups:
1. InternationalVoluntaryServices(SVI):Usingtreesforenvironmentalconservationandsoilfertility
2. FarmBusinessAdvisor(FBA)usingcompostforcropproduction3. InternationalDevelopmentEnterprise(IDE),conservationagriculture4. Ministry of Agriculture; residue retention and use of ridges minimum tillage and

Research Officer (CERO) from Zambia Agriculture Research Institute (ZARI)-HQ Lusaka. MrTembogaveabriefdescriptionoftheprojectandthiswasfollowedbythePACO’sspeech.Mr Munyachusa welcomed the facilitators and the participants to the workshop andappreciated their commitment and time spent on advancing agricultural production in thedistrictandprovinceatlarge.Hewentontotalkabouttheclimaticconditionsoftheprovincewhich are conducive for diverse agricultural production. However he stressed that despitethese good climatic conditions, the soils are poor and are highly leached and can potentialaffectcropproduction.Howeversoilconditionscanbeamendedthroughuseoforganicandinorganic fertilizersanduseofconservation farmingprices. Hesaid theprovincedoeshavepotentialtobeoneofthecountry’sfoodbaskets.TheactingPACOmentionedthattheprovince,inparticular,Solwezidistrictisfacingacrisisinpopulation increase duemining activities, thereby creating pressure for agriculture tomeetthedemandforfood.Thissituationhaspotentialforbothpositiveandnegativeoutcomes.Thepositivewould come if farmerswouldengage in seriousproductionand supply the crops indemand. However, if production is not done in a sustainable way this can cause landdegradation.Bothproductionandmarketingsectorsinthedistrictstillhavechallengeshencetheimportanceofstakeholders’participationtobringaboutsolutions.Hementionedhowthat thegovernment is promoting agriculture foodproduction throughvariousprojectslikethefarmerinputsupportprogramme(FISP)andsmallholderagribusinesspromotionprogramme(SAPP)throughtheMinistryofAgriculture.Despitetheseeffortsbythegovernment, production levels especially under FISP, are still very low at 2.2 ton/ha whenpotentialyieldscanbegreaterthan6ton/ha.Despitethesechallengesfacedinthedistrictbythevariousstakeholders,theactingPACOencouragedallthestakeholderstoworktogetherinpromotingtheValueChainapproachesforvariouscommodities.

5 Stakeholder Approach to Risk Informed and Evidence BaseDecisionMaking(SHARED)
PatriciaMasikati,ofICRAF,presentedontheSHAREDapproach,whichis:• Ademanddriven facilitationprocess for co-learningand co-negotiationof actions to
achievemutuallyagreedupondevelopmentoutcomes.• TheSHAREDsupportsthatdecision-makingmustbeinclusive,embracethecomplexity
ofreality,takeintoaccountriskandidentifyinvestmentpriorities.• The SHARED approach includes convening and facilitating the integration of diverse
knowledge systems, sectors and institutions and opportunities for stakeholders tointeractwithandinterrogatetheknowledge,experienceandevidence.
Figure6:FourkeyphasesoftheSHAREDapproach.
TheuniquefeaturesofSHAREDinclude:• Decisionscanbetestedtowardlongtermdesiredoutcomesandimpacts.• Emphasis is placed on scientific and experience based evidence, and a comprehensive
facilitationprocessthatintegratesresearch,practiceandpolicy.• Negotiationsarebasedonamuchstronger foundationalunderstandingof intervention
implicationsandnecessarychangesinbehaviour.Examples of SHARED approach applicationwere given includingwork in Turkana County inKenya.

Explain the following: We are carrying out this questionnaire for ICRAF and its partners to help us understand more about Sustainable Agricultural Intensification (SAI) as it is promoted at both the local and national levels in your country. You may be aware that Sustainable Agricultural Intensification--or SAI for short--has been defined as a form of agricultural production where yields are increased without adverse environmental impacts like deforestation, water pollution, soil erosion, and encroachment on areas not already under agricultural production.
