Guiding principles and final aims
• Facilitate farmer-to-farmer exchange of knowledge
• Permit validation of computational models and trialing of new technologies and techniques
• Learning from history• Ground climate change impacts and
adaptation studies• Quantify the real effects of uncertainty
in the process of adaptation
5 • 3/21/11
The principle• Differences in agricultural systems are
related to climates –hence we can transfer technologies that work if climates are similar
6 • 3/21/11
Cassava yield
High yields
7 • 3/21/11
Temperature similarity
Could we achieve high yields here?
