Analysis of drivers of agricultural growth, feminization of agriculture and crop modeling tools: Capacity building workshop for the taskforce members of the Renewable Natural Resources (RNR) Strategy 2040 for Bhutan
No full textThe Ministry of Agriculture and Forests (MoAF), Royal Government of Bhutan, had formed a taskforce with members from all sub-sectors and agencies under the Ministry to formulate the RNR1 Strategy 2040 by June 2020. The RNR Strategic Document 2040 will serve as an input to the national level strategic document that the Gross National Happiness Commission is currently formulating. However, to undertake this important task of sectoral envisioning, there exists a technical gap in terms of human resource capacity with respect to various economic analysis required to prepare a long-term strategy. To bridge this gap, a customized training on landscape planning, scenario analysis, and envisioning is deemed crucial to enable and enhance the taskforce to develop the Strategic vision for RNR sector. To fill this gap, MoAF and the International Food Policy Research Institute (IFPRI) collaborated to utilize IFPRI’s knowledge services in developing capacity of the taskforce members. The primary aim of the collaboration is to enable the taskforce in doing evidencebased research. IFPRI will play an important role as knowledge partner to MoAF to provide technical support to the taskforce members in analysing data, implement economic modelling tools using national-level data and simulate it with various alternative policy scenarios. In addition, research team from IFPRI is also responsible to critically review the strategic document and to provide necessary feedback to make the document scientific, evidence-based and implementable.Non-PRIFPRI5; CRP7; Capacity Strengthening; 1 Fostering Climate-Resilient and Sustainable Food Supply; 4 Transforming Agricultural and Rural Economies; G Cross-cutting gender themeSARCGIAR Research Program on Climate Change, Agriculture and Food Security (CCAFS
Workshop report: A training program on the International Model for Policy Analysis of Agricultural Commodities and Trade (IMPACT)
No full textThe CCAFS project team at IFPRI in collaboration with the Indian Council of Agricultural Research (ICAR) team organized a 5-day capacity building workshop at the ICAR - National Institute of Agricultural Economics and Policy Research (NIAP). The workshop was conducted on IFPRI’s IMPACT model and was attended by scientists and senior scientists working in various ICAR institutes, particularly in NIAP. The training course introduced the IMPACT methodology, theory and scenario design to the participants. The course helped them gain an understanding on scenarios and scenario analysis. Participants learned how to use the network of models that make up IMPACT, how each module work and how they interact. They further learned to use IMPACT simulations, to design and run scenarios in IMPACT, and access and use IMPACT results correctly.Non-PRIFPRI5; CRP7; Capacity Strengthening; CRP2SAR; PIMCGIAR Research Program on Climate Change, Agriculture and Food Security (CCAFS); CGIAR Research Program on Policies, Institutions, and Markets (PIM
Social Accounting Matrix for India 2017-18
No full textSocial Accounting Matrix for India 2017-18 accounts 112 sectors of Indian economy of which 39 sectors are accounted for agriculture and allied activities, 18 sectors are related to agriculture-based processing activities, 4 mining sectors, 24 manufacturing sectors other than agro-processing, 3 sectors related to utilities, 1 construction sector and 23 service sectors including transport and trade. The primary factor input has been classified into 8 types of labor, 4 types of capital, and one category of land. The categorization of labor is based on the level of education of the workers and geographical location i.e. rural and urban. The 4 types of capital are; crop, live animal, mining, and other financial capital. This SAM distinguishes households into three broad categories like rural farm households, rural non-farm households, and urban households. Households are further disaggregated into per capita expenditure quintiles. Therefore, this database is useful for scholars and policymakers who are interested to work on macroeconomic policy analysis for the Indian economy.IFPRI1; CRP2; Open Access; SAM; Nexus; Nexus SAMsDSGD; SAR; PIMCGIAR Research Program on Policies, Institutions, and Markets (PIM
