Through Tropical Legumes projects, National Agricultural Research Institution like CSIR-SARI in collaboration with IITA have been developing and using quality seeds of improved varieties to attract youth in agriculture and reduce migration.

We met with a few Cowpea seed producers and farmers who shared their farming experience. Tropical Legumes projects was implemented in 14 countries with funding from Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation.

Building on the research this short film explores how young people engage with the rural economy in sub-Saharan Africa.

This film draws on research funded by the International Fund for Agricultural Research (IFAD) and implemented by a team led by the Institute of Development Studies (IDS) and including Addis Ababa University, the International Institute of Tropical Agriculture (IITA), the International Maize and Wheat Improvement Center (CIMMYT), Makerere University, the Université Félix Houphouët-Boigny, and the University of Sussex.

This video documents the activities of phases one and two of a project whose objective was to promote small-scale processing of cassava as a way of contributing to food security, increasing the income and improving livelihoods of smallholder farmers, creating jobs, and contributing to overall economic development.
The project, “Small-scale cassava processing and vertical integration of the cassava sub-sector in East and Southern Africa”, which ran for a total of eight years and came to an end in 2014, was funded by the Common Fund for Commodities (CFC). It was implemented by the International Institute of Tropical Agriculture (IITA) in collaboration with national partners in five countries: the National Center of Applied Research and Rural Development (FOFIFA) of Madagascar; the Zambia Agricultural Research Institute; the National Agriculture Research Organization (NARO) of Uganda; the Tanzania Food and Nutrition Centre (TFNC), and the Agricultural Research Institute of Mozambique (IIAM).

I hope this inspires you to get in contact with local permaculturists and start making a difference in this world. My gift to you!

In Senegal, where farming employs 70% of the population, desertification and land erosion have led to food insecurity. This video shows how researchers supported by the Climate Change Adaptation in Africa program worked with farmers to identify and implement farming strategies that protect against further desertification and improve yields under these new conditions.

Produced by A24 Media, this is part of a series of six videos on research supported by CCAA.

The Climate Change Adaptation in Africa research and capacity development program (2006-2012) was a joint initiative of Canada's International Development Research Centre and the United Kingdom's Department for International Development (DFID).
