Global programs / International agricultural research centers (IARCs)
Nearly every aspect of farming in the semi-arid tropics was examined at the workshop, and it was felt that only through the dissemination of information and an integrated systems approach can farming problems be remedied. Toward that end, this report includes the papers presented at the workshop and the discussions following each major group of topics. The first group, Committee I, covered those subjects related to resource assessment and utilization of research on farming systems in the semi-arid tropics. Major attention was given to land, soil, water, climate, and manpower resources for improving production under the rainfed conditions in this seasonally dry area. Committee II examined the crops and cropping systems research needs for the semi-arid tropics, and Committee III discussed the socioeconomic problems related to farming systems research in this area. Finally, Committee IV explored the question of research at cooperating centers and transfer of technology. The group evaluated various ways for the international institutes to play a productive role in the generation of location-specific technology and its transfer to the different agro-climatic and soil regions in the semi

When the program ran, from its start year to the latest document year. A hatched bar means the start is our estimate.
Axis: years in documents. The start year comes from first seen; the end is the latest document year, so the program may have run longer.
A few documents to read first. Each opens in the side panel, with the PDF to download.
