PARI research focuses on identifying and scaling promising agricultural innovations for agricultural growth and food security in Africa and India.
This policy brief presents the concept and findings from case studies with Hello Tractor (Nigeria) and EM3 Agri-Services (India) to illustrate how this can work in developing countries.
This is the first paper that explores agronomic, environmental and socioeconomic effects together, thereby revealing linkages and trade- offs, some of which have been hitherto unknown.
The PARI annual report 2019 presents the highlights of PARI research conducted in 2019.
The Conference on Climate Change and Food Security in West Africa was an avenue for junior researchers at the Graduate School on Climate Change Economics under the West African Science…
This study was conducted to identify opportunities for mechanization policies and investments to increase productivity, incomes, and employment opportunities and add value to African produce.
Numerous challenges have slowed the growth of the telecom infrastructure in Nigeria, namely, high cost of the right of way, multiple regulatory bodies, lengthy processing of right of way, conflicting agreements at federal and state levels with operators, cable theft and road works leading to damages to fibre installations/infrastructure, erratic grid electricity supply, fragile backbone infrastructure and limited investment in IBB industry.
This Policy Brief proposes an agenda for supporting sustainable development of seed systems in Africa.
This study seeks to assess the complementarity of education and use of agricultural inputs–improved seeds, fertilizers, access to credit facilities (loans), and the incremental effects of education on intermediate to longer-term economic outcomes (consumption, expenditure and poverty) among smallholder farmers in four countries in SSA Africa (Ethiopia, Malawi, Nigeria and Tanzania).
This paper aims to analyze the interplay between production diversity and dietary diversity across different seasons in rural Nigeria.
This policy brief discusses opportunities and challenges for scaling digital technologies in African agriculture.
Alternative Pathways towards Food Security.
This study looks in to pattern of agricultural mechanization along the entire value chain (production, post-harvest, processing, transport and storage) and compares it with the annual average agricultural output over the same time period.
