  1. Some examples of CIMMYT’s GIS based work Kai Sonder GIS

    UNIT CIMMYT IFPRI, CIAT, many others Africa Agriculture GIS week Application of spatial science in African research and development Addis Ababa 12-14 March 2013

  3. Very little donor interest for investing in wheat research and

    development High consumption in many African countries especially urban areas Food crisis 2008 riots in some countries linked to rising bread prices High foreign currency expenditures for import due to limited local production In 2010 African countries spent more than 12.5 billion US$ to import of 32 million tons of wheat
  4. Simple suitability analysis shows large potential areas for wheat production

    in some SSA countries to fill the growing gap between domestic production and consumption requirements Will such production be economically profitable than importing wheat? Suitability Ecocrop Suitability FAO GAEZ
  5. Modeling approach Biophysical part: CERES-WHEAT model from DSSAT based in

    a high performance cluster Benchmark varieties were defined for different wheat mega environments Soils files from WISE database Climate data from Worldclim fed into climate generator 10 km pixels Economic part: Transport cost model for wheat and fertilizer Import parity price comparison with internal production plus transport Net economic return was calculated for each pixel on ha basis

  13. Link to policy = impact? Available at: http://conferences.cimmyt.org/index.php/en/component/docman/doc_download/788-report-africas-wheat-potential-embargo Results from

    this were presented to wheat research community in Africa and policy makers in a conference in Addis Ababa in October 2012 http://conferences.cimmyt.org/index.php/en/wheat-for-food-security-in-africa
  14. Project was commissioned by Howard Buffet Foundation to Evaluate predicted

    impact of climate change on maize bean systems in 4 Central American countries: Guatemala, Honduras, Nicaragua, El Salvador Project was carried out coordinated by CRS carried out by CIAT and CIMMYT Biophysical and socioeconomic combination but focused on climate change Report focused on adaptation strategies

    to maize and bean research communities in 4 project countries Africa and the ministers of Agriculture in a series of national meetings. Will go into national adaptation strategies. http://www.crsprogramquality.org/storage/pubs/agenv/climate-change-maize-beans-full-report.pdf
