Описание: Research, education, and extension investments, while usually necessary, are often insufficient alone to bring knowledge, technologies, and services that enable farmers and entrepreneurs to innovate. Efforts to strengthen research systems and increase the availability of knowledge have not increased innovation or the use of knowledge in agriculture at the pace or the scale required by the intensifying and proliferating challenges confronting agriculture. Agricultural Innovation Systems: An Investment Sourcebook contributes to the identification, design, and implementation of the investments, approaches, and complementary interventions most likely to strengthen agricultural innovation systems (AIS) and to promote innovation and equitable growth. The Sourcebook provides a menu of tools and operational guidance, as well as good practice lessons, to illustrate approaches to designing, investing in, and improving these systems.Managing the ability of agriculture to meet rising global demand and to respond to the changes and opportunities will require good policy, sustained investments, and innovation - not business as usual. Experience indicates that aside from a strong capacity in R&D, the ability to innovate is often related to collective action and coordination, exchange of knowledge among diverse actors, incentives and resources available to form partnerships and develop business, and an enabling environment. While consensus is developing about what is meant by 'innovation' and 'innovation system,' no detailed blueprint exists for making agricultural innovation happen at a given time, in a given place, for a given result. That said, the AIS approach, which looks at these multiple conditions and relationships that promote innovation in agriculture in specific contexts, has moved from a concept to a subdiscipline with principles of analysis and action.Drawing on approaches that have been tested at different scales in different settings, this Sourcebook emphasizes the lessons learned, benefits and impacts, implementation issues, and prospects for replicating or expanding successful practices.The Sourcebook reflects the experiences and evolving understanding of numerous individuals and organizations concerned with agricultural innovation, including the World Bank. It targets the key operational staff who design and implement lending projects in international and regional development agencies and national governments, as well as the practitioners who design thematic programs and technical assistance packages. The Sourcebook can also be an important resource for the research community and nongovernmental organizations.
Описание: Innovation in agriculture has been critical to developing East Asia's economic transformation. The focus on productivity has come at a cost to environmental sustainability, however. This report examines the potential that a new generation of agricultural innovation holds for addressing these challenges and outlines an agenda for public action.
Описание: In The Four Ages of American Foreign Policy, the eminent authority on American foreign policy Michael Mandelbaum offers a new framework for understanding the history of the foreign policy of the United States. He divides that history into four distinct periods, each of them defined by the consistent increase in the power the country has had at its disposal in its relations with other countries.

Описание: The so-called "extension question" concerns the inclusion of developing countries into the TRIPS agreement (for trade-elected intellectual property rights), which provides protection of geographical indications of product origin. This book provides some empirical evidence and applied legal and economic reasoning to this debate and includes both reviews and case studies.

Описание: This book uses digital technologies for the sustainable development and productivity of the agricultural sector. The book presents technical developments in the IoT sector, sensors and smart agriculture machines, as well as solutions to digitize the farmer's life by delivering holistic management platforms and monitoring systems. The papers presented in the book are proceedings of the conference “Fundamental and Applied Scientific Research in the Development of Agriculture in the Far East (AFE-2021)”, which took place in Ussuriysk, Russia. Innovative developments in the field of precision livestock farming, application of fertilizers of a new generation and production of eco-friendly products are presented here. This book is an indispensable tool for farming in any climatic conditions and any climatic zones, since it shares the experience of sustainable farming in the Far East region, which is very valuable in conditions of a changing climate and stricter requirements of the market. The research results presented in the book will help in making the right decisions about the allocation of resources in agricultural systems. The book will allow increasing awareness about the benefits of precision livestock farming, optimizing agricultural production, helping the farmers maximize their yield and minimize losses with efficient use of resources and decreasing skilled labor in agriculture.
