Farm-to-Feed Innovation: Turning local by-products into affordable, high-quality livestock feed Small-scale Feed Production Using Local Agricultural By-products strengthens domestic livestock feed production by transforming locally available agricultural and agro-industrial resources into nutritionally balanced feed. Through locally adapted feed formulations, capacity building, and appropriately selected processing equipment, the technology supports decentralized production systems suited to available resources, infrastructure, and energy conditions. The technology reduces dependence on costly imported feed concentrates, makes productive use of underutilized local resources, provides alternative feed during periods of scarcity, and reduces pressure on increasingly constrained grazing resources. Developed and commercially deployed in Tunisia and subsequently implemented in Mali and Ethiopia, it also creates opportunities for local equipment manufacturing, rural enterprise development, and climate-resilient livestock production.

Dry Out the Methane. Green Up Your Harvest. Alternate Wetting and Drying (AWD) is an easy, low-cost water-saving method for growing rice. Instead of keeping the rice field continuously flooded, farmers let the field dry out for several days between irrigations. The timing is guided by a simple field water tube (often bamboo or a PVC pipe) installed in the paddy. When the water level inside this tube drops to 15 cm below the soil surface, it is time to irrigate again. This alternating cycle cuts water use by about 25–30%, and helps reduce methane (a powerful greenhouse gas). By using AWD, farmers save money on irrigation costs (less pumping or water fees) while producing the same amount of rice, making them more resilient to water scarcity.
Spot the Pest, Stop the Damage Governments use standardized FAW ID guides to ensure extension agents and farmers across the country are working with the same information to recognize FAW. This consistency improves surveillance, allowing local officers to confirm new sightings rapidly and enabling a quicker government response. Proper identification prevents unnecessary pesticide use on harmless insects, supporting governmental goals to reduce chemical misuse. Investing in nationwide FAW ID training builds a grassroots early warning system, allowing officials to pinpoint small infestations and coordinate control operations quickly, thereby protecting the national maize crop.

Yam leaf-bud cuttings, rapid quality seed production! The Leaf-bud Cuttings technology is a strategic solution to increase yam productivity and food security by enabling the rapid multiplication of seed yam from vine segments rather than bulky tubers. This approach addresses a key constraint in yam production—limited access to quality planting material—by producing 100–300 new plants from a single vine, reducing the reliance on food-grade tubers for propagation. For governments, this means stronger national food systems, reduced vulnerability to climate shocks and conflict-related seed loss, and improved farmer resilience. Integrating this technology into national seed programs and extension systems will support broader agricultural development goals.
