Engagement overview

Identified adoption bottlenecks in dryland crop systems - informing CGIAR breeding pipelines and national seed policy.

National seed systems often fail at the last mile - not in varietal release, but in farmer learning networks and input dealer incentives.

We combined adoption panel data with supply-chain mapping to show where genetic gains were being lost in the commercialization chain.

Projects & workstreams

  • Genetic Innovation & Seed Systems
  • Dryland Crop Adoption Bottlenecks
  • Adoption bottleneck diagnostics across dryland systems
  • Co-designed with CGIAR breeding and seed teams
