MEETING NOTES
Outputs of from this event will add to growing collection of peer reviewed papers, book chapters etc. produced by scientists implementing activities in the Africa RISING East and Southern Africa project. Examples of such outputs already produced by the team before are as below:
- Post-harvest food losses in a maize-based farming system of semi-arid savannah area of Tanzania
- Agronomic survey to assess crop yield, controlling factors and management implications: a case-study of Babati in northern Tanzania
- Approaches to Reinforce Crop Productivity Under Rain-fed Conditions in Sub-humid Environments in Sub-Saharan Africa
- Farm typologies, soil fertility variability and nutrient management in smallholder farming in Sub-Saharan Africa
- Rururbanization – a threat to agricultural intensification and food security?
- “Filling the maize basket” supports crop diversity and quality of household diet in Malawi
- Maize Yield Response to Nitrogen in Malawi’s Smallholder Production System
- Modeling and participatory, farmer-led approaches to food security in a changing world: a case study from Malawi

Timelines for finalizing papers Participants discussed the timelines for finalization of their papers in groups and made presentation committing themselves to the set time frames for completion. Additionally, at the request of the chief scientist; in those groups they reflected on the issue of inputs offered to farmers by the teams and their nature. Could they be classifed as free inputs? Research inputs? etc.
