Support for Technology Providers
Research in agronomy and agriculture produces new, improved technologies with the potential to increase yields, resist pests and diseases, withstand adverse climates, improve nutrition and income, and more. The TAAT e-catalogs are a powerful step on the road towards such impact:
Technology Providers are researchers or representatives of organizations that own technologies that we showcase on the e-catalogs. They own the data we publish on their technologies in the e-catalogs.
Technology Providers work with the TAAT technology Profiling team to create technology profiles that are customized to the needs of the audience of the e-catalogs:
-
- decision-makers in governments, who are responsible for the design and implementation of large-scale agricultural development projects,
- decision-makers in private sector companies, who are responsible for the integration of agricultural technologies in new or improved business plans,
- decision-makers in international finance institutions funding agricultural development, or in large international organizations such as iNGOs, responsible for designing and implementing large-scale agricultural development programs.
We provide here supporting and guiding material for Technology Providers:
- e-learning course: introduction to the e-catalogs.
- This e-learning course takes under 5 minutes to study and gives you an easy-to-follow overview of the e-catalogs and technology profiles, their objective and their audience.
- Save the file on your computer and double-click on it, it is then automated and interactive.
- Overview of the process for the creation of a new Technology Profile.
- Guide on the use of the online form.

Intense Heat, Rich Aroma, Market Ready! This group of round pepper varieties supports inclusive and climate-smart agriculture in smallholder contexts. Development actors can use them in programs targeting improved livelihoods, women’s economic empowerment, and better nutrition. Their suitability for home gardens, small-scale farms, and processing initiatives makes them a practical entry point for interventions focused on resilience, food systems, and local value chain strengthening.
Strong Against Disease, Hot on the Market. This group of long pepper varieties are high-yielding, disease-resistant pepper varieties developed by the World Vegetable Center, designed for hot, disease-prone regions like the Sudan and Northern Guinea Savannas. It offers a yield potential of up to 6.78 tons per hectare, strong resistance to major diseases, and nutritional benefits such as medium spiciness, high Vitamin C, and capsaicin. By promoting stable harvests and sustainable farming practices, PS PEP 1 enhances food security and farmer livelihoods in challenging environments.
Empower the soil data community with best practice tools and lessons learned for a sustainable SIS! The SIS Framework, developed by CABI and ISRIC, provides a step-by-step guide for designing soil information systems. It integrates financial, institutional, and technological considerations across four practical phases: initiation, planning and design, implementation, and operationalization.
