We take stock of the major changes in methodology for studying the impacts of international agricultural research, focusing on the period 2006–2020. Impact assessment of agricultural research has a long and recognized tradition.
Evaluations of agricultural technologies rarely consider the implications of how adoption may alter the labor allocation of different individuals within a household.
Inclusive governance and policies can promote adaptation to climate change as well as resilience of women in the agrifood system.
Agricultural and food policies are increasingly being tasked with doing more to improve the nutritional status of low-income populations, especially reductions in child stunting.
IFPRI’s 2022 Annual Report presents highlights from our research work in low- and middle-income countries and on global challenges.
Introduction: This article contributes to a better understanding of the context in which agricultural R&D investment takes place in low- and middle-income countries, and how innovation capacity, the development of the food system, and the size
Research is essential for improvement of agricultural productivity, resource use and resilience, and for food systems transformation more broadly.
Gender inequality exists everywhere, but it is particularly stark in fragile and conflict-affected settings (FCAS).
Non-communicable diseases (NCDs) account for the largest share of the global disease burden, and increasing evidence shows that zinc deficiency (ZD) contributes to NCDs by inducing oxidative stress, insulin resistance, and impaired lipid metabolis
The reverberations of the Ukraine–Russia conflict have been keenly felt in 2022 as the impacts of Russia's invasion of Ukraine quickly cascaded across the globe, significantly exacerbating existing pressures on global systems.
The role of Zn in human health was discovered 60 years ago, and despite remarkable research efforts, a sufficiently sensitive and specific biomarker of Zn status is still lacking.
This paper explains the need for digital tools and how they enable commercialization and scale, the impact on users, and the risks and benefits with examples of projects and partners along the value chain.
This chapter looks at food system innovations and digital technologies as important drivers of productivity growth and improved food and nutrition security.
The biomedical domain has shown that in silico analyses over vast data pools enhances the speed and scale of scientific innovation.
CGIAR has considerable experience with private sector engagement in the context of its mission to create sustainable and resilient food, land and water systems, and there is continuing interest and dialogue on this theme within CGIAR and the inter
