-Based on the experiences and lessons learned from Phase 1, the expected outcomes of the Africa RISING East and Southern Africa project in Phase 2 are:
+----
-* '''Outcome 1:''' Productivity, diversity, and income of crop−livestock systems in selected agroecologies enhanced under climate variability.
+==What Is GMGN Invite Code "BEST99"?==
-* '''Outcome 2:''' Natural resource integrity and resilience to climate change enhanced for the target communities and agroecologies.
+The <strong data-start="844" data-end="873">GMGN Invite Code "BEST99"</strong> is a promotional code that gives users a <strong data-start="915" data-end="931">15% discount</strong> on their purchase. It is applied directly at checkout and instantly reduces the total amount you need to pay.This discount helps traders:
-* '''Outcome 3:''' Food and feed safety, nutritional quality, and income security of target smallholder families improved equitably (within households).
+* Lower their initial investment
-* '''Outcome 4:''' Functionality of input and output markets and other institutions to deliver demand-driven sustainable intensification research products improved.
+* Improve capital management
-* '''Outcome 5:''' Partnerships for the scaling of sustainable intensification research products and innovations operationalized.
+* Increase long-term profitability

 Scaling of validated technologies to smallholder farm households by working through innovative partnerships is at the core of the Africa RISING East and Southern Africa project strategy. Through three sub-projects funded by respective USAID country missions in Tanzania, Malawi, and Zambia, improved agricultural technologies are disseminated to farmers and adaptive research informed by the development partners is implemented by scientists to achieve the project’s scaling targets and livelihood improvement goals. This new paradigm is called Research in Development (R-in-D).</br>
-Africa RISING-NAFAKA scaling project (Tanzania): The [[AR_NAFAKA_TUBOCHA_Project| Africa RISING-NAFAKA scaling projec]]t (Enhancing partnership among Africa RISING, NAFAKA, and TUBORESHE CHAKULA Programs for fast tracking delivery and scaling of agricultural technologies in Tanzania) is an interdisciplinary and inter-institutional project that aims to address smallholder farmers’ needs in the semi-arid and subhumid zones of Tanzania. The project is funded by the USAID Country Mission as part of the US Government’s Feed the Future Initiative.Through participatory on-farm approaches, candidate technologies validated by Africa RISING are being scaled. This is achieved through the networks already established by Tanzania Staples Value Chain (NAFAKA) and other institutional grassroots organizations, creating an opportunity for mainstreaming into wider rural development programs, beyond Africa RISING’s original intervention sites.</br>/br>

It is a relay project/activity between the Integrating Nutrition in Value Chains (INVC) 1 Project which came to an end in October 2016 and its successor project, Malawi Agricultural Diversification Activity (AgDIV). The Bridging Activity was commissioned with the objective of ensuring that the gains achieved by the INVC 1 project are not lost in between the transition phase from INVC 1 to Ag. Div. It therefore carries on with the implementation of some of the actions implemented under INVC 1. Specifically, the Bridging Activity provides continuity in assistance to a subset of smallholder farmer groups and Extension Planning Areas that received services from INVC 1. It also includes the latest research findings from the Africa RISING project to further boost production of the activity beneficiaries.</br>/br>
