| Description | Published research evidence were used to develop policy briefs and task forces, to engage policy makers at several levels in a series of workshops and meetings over years. The efforts resulted in the 2019 adoption of conservation agriculture-based sustainable intensification (CASI) as an extension package by the Ministry of Agriculture of Ethiopia, offering significant yield, income and time saving gains to smallholder farmers practising maize-legumes cropping systems, as well as climate change adaptation benefits. |
