However, concerns are mounting about the low and decreasing yield response and profitability of inorganic fertilizer use, particularly in Sub-Saharan Africa. This study aims to refine yield response and profitability models by incorporating recent data from nationally representative and panel datasets spanning six countries. Most countries exhibited low nitrogen yield responsiveness (4\u20137 kg), while Ghana and Uganda showed higher responsiveness (15\u201320 kg) per additional 1 kg of nitrogen. Analysis of fertilizer-to-maize price ratios from 2010 to 2023 showed a downward trend, with spikes in 2022 in Ghana, Malawi, Nigeria, and Tanzania. Overall, except for those years, the data suggest a trend of increasingly favorable price incentives for fertilizer use. Ethiopia, Tanzania, and Uganda experienced declines in the fertilizer-to-maize price ratio. Increasing inorganic fertilizer use would be profitable in Ethiopia, Ghana, Nigeria, and Uganda at current market prices, but not in Malawi or Tanzania. Subsidies in Malawi and Tanzania have boosted profitability, but these may not be necessary in Ghana, Nigeria, or Uganda, which already have favorable price incentives; Malawi could benefit by substantially reducing its 80 percent subsidy while maintaining decent price incentives and farm profits. The paper proposes policy options based on factors influencing yield responsiveness and potential improvements drawn from new modeling and synthesis of the literature.<\/p>\n<div class=\"dspaceDetails\">\n<p class=\"ifb-desc\"><strong>Year published<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>2025<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"dspaceDetails\">\n<p class=\"ifb-desc\"><strong>Authors<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Ragasa, Catherine; Takeshima, Hiroyuki; Asante, Seth; Amare, Mulubrhan; Ma, Ning; Olanrewaju, Opeyemi; Duchoslav, Jan<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"dspaceDetails\">\n<p><strong>Citation<\/strong><\/p>\n<p class=\"citationDisplay uagb-ifb-desc \" data-identifier =\"10568\/172861\">Ragasa, Catherine; Takeshima, Hiroyuki; Asante, Seth; Amare, Mulubrhan; Ma, Ning; Olanrewaju, Opeyemi; and Duchoslav, Jan. 2025.

Although computer vision\u2013assisted dietary assessment tools have been proposed, limited evidence exists on their validity in LMICs.<\/p>\n<p>Objectives<br \/>\nThis study aimed to validate FRANI (Food Recognition Assistance and Nudging Insights), a mobile phone application with computer vision\u2013assisted dietary assessment, against weighed records (WRs) and compare with 24-h recalls (24HR), in female youth in Ghana.<\/p>\n<p>Methods<br \/>\nDietary intake was assessed on 2 nonconsecutive days using FRANI, WR, and 24HR in females aged 18\u201324 y recruited at the University of Ghana, Accra (n = 64). Equivalence was examined by comparing intake mean ratios (FRANI\/WR and 24HR\/WR) with error margins of 10%, 15%, and 20%, using mixed-effect regression models adjusting for repeated measures. Agreement between methods was assessed using the concordance correlation coefficient (CCC).<\/p>\n<p>Results<br \/>\nEquivalence for FRANI and WR was found at 10% bound for riboflavin and vitamin B-6 intakes and at 15% bound for protein, fat, calcium, folate, iron, thiamine, vitamin C, and zinc intakes. Energy, fiber, vitamin A, and niacin intakes were equivalent at 20% bound. Comparisons between 24HR and WR found no estimates within a 10% bound. Protein, iron, niacin, riboflavin, and zinc intakes were equivalent at a 15% bound; folate, thiamine, and vitamin B-12 intakes were equivalent at a 20% bound. CCCs between FRANI and WR ranged from 0.45 to 0.74 (mean: 0.60) and between 24HR and WR ranged from 0.48 to 0.76 (mean: 0.63). Omission errors were 15% for FRANI and 22% for 24HR. Intrusion errors were 22% for FRANI and 18% for 24HR.<\/p>\n<p>Conclusions<br \/>\nFRANI-assisted dietary assessment accurately estimates nutrient intake and performed as accurately as 24HR in female youth in Ghana. Although improvements in computer vision\u2013assisted diet assessment are possible, emerging evidence on FRANI suggests its readiness for scale-up.<\/p>\n<div class=\"dspaceDetails\">\n<p class=\"ifb-desc\"><strong>Year published<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>2024<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"dspaceDetails\">\n<p class=\"ifb-desc\"><strong>Authors<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Gelli, Aulo; Nwabuikwu, Odiche; Bannerman, Boateng; Ador, Gabriel; Atadze, Vicentia; Asante, Millicent; Bempong, Silas; McCloskey, Peter; Nguyen, Phuong; Hughes, David; Folson, Gloria<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"dspaceDetails\">\n<p><strong>Citation<\/strong><\/p>\n<p class=\"citationDisplay uagb-ifb-desc \" data-identifier =\"10568\/159283\">Gelli, Aulo; Nwabuikwu, Odiche; Bannerman, Boateng; Ador, Gabriel; Atadze, Vicentia; Asante, Millicent; et al. 2024.

We implement two incentivized tasks: (1) a game that measures willingness to pay for resource control in the household, and (2) dictator games played privately and jointly by spouses. Across study sites we find that women exhibit a higher willingness to pay for resource control than their husbands and have less influence over joint dictator game decisions. Importantly, behavior in the two tasks is correlated, suggesting that they capture similar underlying latent variables. In Uganda, experimental measures from both tasks are also robustly correlated with a range of survey measures of women's access to resources, agency, and wellbeing. This is not the case in Ghana, suggesting that contextual factors may be important, and researchers may want to collect both measures in a project. Like other recent papers, we find that an important fraction of respondents display negative willingness to pay for intra-household resource control. Our analysis shows that such behavior is displayed by women who have higher levels of economic empowerment and wellbeing, a result that contradicts previous conjectures made in the literature. Altogether, our analysis suggests that, despite lacking ideal theoretical properties, private dictator game decisions (even when collected only from the wife) can perform well as proxies of empowerment.<\/p>\n<p>JEL Codes: C9, D13, J12, J16<\/p>\n<div class=\"dspaceDetails\">\n<p class=\"ifb-desc\"><strong>Year published<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>2024<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"dspaceDetails\">\n<p class=\"ifb-desc\"><strong>Authors<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Ambler, Kate; Jones, Kelly; Recalde, Mar\u00eda P.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"dspaceDetails\">\n<p><strong>Citation<\/strong><\/p>\n<p class=\"citationDisplay uagb-ifb-desc \" data-identifier =\"10568\/152429\">Ambler, Kate; Jones, Kelly; and Recalde, Mar\u00eda P. 2024.

These routine economic data can be used with a nutrition-sensitive lens for understanding economic access to a healthy diet. The United Nations Food and Agriculture Organization has adopted the cost and affordability of a healthy diet (CoAHD) for annual tracking alongside other food security indicators. This indicator is relevant in many countries for informed decision-making and accountability toward food systems summit pathways. National governments may wish to include this indicator in their own monitoring systems, using existing subnational price and income data.<br \/>\nObjectives<br \/>\nWe describe emerging systems in several countries for monitoring CoAHD and analytical tools that facilitate the calculation of CoAHD. We discuss reasons why the indicator may differ when calculated using subnational data compared with the global monitoring system and how to interpret differences.<br \/>\nMethods<br \/>\nBetween June 2016 and February 2024, 19 workshops were held in 7 countries (Ethiopia, Ghana, Malawi, Nigeria, Pakistan, Tanzania, and Viet Nam), where stakeholder discussions covered sources of food price data, institutions involved, policy uses, and direct training in calculation of CoAHD. Food price data collected by national organizations were used to calculate CoAHD in partnership with government agencies.<br \/>\nResults<br \/>\nCalculating CoAHD using subnational data uses the same methods across settings, but the mechanisms for monitoring and dissemination are different in each country, illustrating heterogeneity in how the metric can most effectively be incorporated within existing structures. Results from national and global monitoring systems have expected differences based on data sources, healthy diet standards, and affordability standards.<br \/>\nConclusions<br \/>\nCoAHD can be calculated with existing data and resources, facilitated by new software tools and user tutorials. In the future, it can be further streamlined, leveraging technical assistance from global institutions and aligning national and global monitoring systems.<\/p>\n<div class=\"dspaceDetails\">\n<p class=\"ifb-desc\"><strong>Year published<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>2024<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"dspaceDetails\">\n<p class=\"ifb-desc\"><strong>Authors<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Herforth, Anna Whitson; Gilbert, Rachel; Sokourenko, Kristina; Fatima, Tehreem; Adeyemi, Olutayo; Alemayehu, Dawit; Arhin, Eunice; Bachewe, Fantu Nisrane; Bai, Yan; Chiosa, Imran; Genye, Tirsit; Haile, Hagos; Jahangeer, Raja; Kinabo, Joyce; Mishili, Fulgence; Nnabugwu, Chioma D.; Nortey, John; Ofosu-Baadu, Bernice; Onabolu, Adeyinka; Sarpong, Daniel Bruce; Tessema, Masresha; Van, Duong T.

WHO guidelines recommend children aged 6\u201323 months be fed a variety of foods to meet nutrient requirements. This study aimed to determine infant and young child feeding (IYCF) practices among HIV-exposed children under 2 years old enrolled in a dietary intervention and to explore correlates of the IYCF indicators and associations between IYCF and nutritional status.<\/p>\n<p>Methodology: Six hundred and eighty mother\u2013child pairs were recruited from 19 health facilities from the Greater Accra Region. The sociodemographic data, anthropometry, hemoglobin, and dietary intake were recorded.<\/p>\n<p>Results: Ninety-five percent of HIV-positive mothers breastfed their babies, and 53% initiated breastfeeding in a timely manner. Around one in five mothers (21%) introduced liquids other than breastmilk to their children within the first 2 days of birth, and only around one in four children (26%) aged 12\u201323 months had received breast milk on the day before assessment. Ninety-three percent of babies between 6 and 8 months had been introduced to solid, semi-solid, or soft foods. Eighteen percent of children reached the threshold for Minimum Dietary Diversity (MDD) by eating from over five of eight food groups. Fifty-four percent received Minimum Meal Frequency (MMF), eating between 2 and 4 meals in a day. Eleven percent received the Minimum Acceptable Diet (MAD). Thirty-two percent were anemic. Underweight and stunting were 12 and 11%, respectively. Children of mothers aged 31\u201340 years were more likely to meet the MDD and MAD [OR = 2.8, 95%CI (1.185, 6.519), p < 0.05 and OR = 2.8, 95%CI (1.256, 6.279), p < 0.05] compared to children of mothers aged 30 years or less or aged above 40 years. Children from households earning more than GHS 500 were more likely to meet MMF than those from households earning less. No associations were found between IYCF and nutritional status.\n\nConclusion: Findings highlight the need for nutrition programs to educate HIV-exposed children\u2019s caregivers on optimal feeding practices. The importance of continued breastfeeding and dietary diversity needs to be highlighted. Affordable, iron-rich foods should be promoted.

We find that purchases form the majority of rural food consumption whether in favorable or unfavorable agroecological zones and over country and income strata and for most food products. Rural nonfarm employment (as a cash source) plays an important role in household food purchases across all study countries and food products.

Women farmers, however, have benefited less than men farmers from seed systems in low and middle income countries. We identify factors that inhibit and promote women's success in seed businesses through three case studies of women's and men's entrepreneurship across seed-related value chains and country contexts: tilapia seed production in Ghana, marketing and trading of improved maize and sorghum seeds in Kenya, and chicken seed dissemination in Tanzania. Applying a gender lens, we use key informant interviews and focus group discussions to analyze women's and men's motivations to engage in seed businesses, the challenges they confront to start and build their enterprises, and prospects for sustainability and continued success. We use quantitative data to characterize the levels of empowerment of the agripreneurs sampled. For women, the results show that the social normative context of the sector is critical. Time flexibility and profitability are important considerations for women's engagement. Furthermore, across all three country cases, family and external support are frequently key to women's participation and success in seed agripreneurship. The article discusses the importance of government bodies, NGOs, and donors in challenging the normative context around gender resource gaps, as well as provide technical packages and training to develop business acumen. Supporting change of restrictive gender norms in non-threatening ways - such as ICTs - is key.<\/p>\n<div class=\"dspaceDetails\">\n<p class=\"ifb-desc\"><strong>Year published<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>2024<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"dspaceDetails\">\n<p class=\"ifb-desc\"><strong>Authors<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Farnworth, Cathy Rozel; Gali\u00e8, Alessandra; Gumucio, Tatiana; Jumba, Humphrey; Kramer, Berber; Ragasa, Catherine<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"dspaceDetails\">\n<p><strong>Citation<\/strong><\/p>\n<p class=\"citationDisplay uagb-ifb-desc \" data-identifier =\"10568\/139712\">Farnworth, Cathy Rozel; Galie, Alessandra; Gumucio, Tatiana; Jumba, Humphrey; Kramer, Berber; and Ragasa, Catherine. 2024.

The role of production technologies, including agricultural mechanisation, in addressing gender inequality is increasingly explored. Knowledge gaps remain, however, including how agricultural mechanisation differentially affects labour engagements across sectors. This study aims to partly fill these knowledge gaps through micro\u2010evidence from seven countries (Ethiopia, Ghana, Nigeria, Tanzania, India, Nepal and Vietnam), using several nationally representative panel data and supplementary data and applying correlated random effects double\u2010hurdle models with instrumental variables. We find that the use of tractors and\/or combine harvesters by the household induces a greater shift from farm activities to non\u2010farm activities by female members than by male members. While statistical significance varies, these patterns generally hold consistently across all seven countries studied. These patterns also hold across different farm sizes. While these are short\u2010term relations, agricultural mechanisation proxied by tractors and\/or combine harvesters is one of the crucial contributors to gendered rural livelihood. Future studies should more closely investigate these patterns' underlying mechanisms and implications.<\/p>\n<div class=\"dspaceDetails\">\n<p class=\"ifb-desc\"><strong>Year published<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>2024<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"dspaceDetails\">\n<p class=\"ifb-desc\"><strong>Authors<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Takeshima, Hiroyuki<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"dspaceDetails\">\n<p><strong>Citation<\/strong><\/p>\n<p class=\"citationDisplay uagb-ifb-desc \" data-identifier =\"10568\/131604\">Takeshima, Hiroyuki. 2024.

The role of water insecurity in food insecurity and diet quality, however, has received minimal attention. Data are from panel surveys conducted during 2020\u201321 among adults involved in smallholder agriculture in Niger (n = 364, 3 rounds), Nigeria (n = 501, 5 rounds), Senegal (n = 501, 5 rounds), and Ghana (n = 543, 5 rounds). We hypothesized that household water insecurity (measured using the brief Household Water Insecurity Experiences Scale) would be associated with greater individual food insecurity (using 5 of the 8 Food Insecurity Experiences Scale items) and lower dietary diversity (using the Minimum Dietary Diversity Score for Women). At baseline, 37.1% of individuals were living in water-insecure households and of these, 90.6% had some experience of food insecurity. In multilevel mixed-effects regressions, individuals living in water-insecure households had 1.67 (95% CI: 1.47, 1.89) times higher odds of reporting any food insecurity experience and were estimated to consume 0.38-fewer food groups (95% CI: -0.50, -0.27) than those living in water-secure households. Experiences with suboptimal water access and use are associated with poor nutrition. The pathways by which water insecurity impacts nutrition should be identified.

To achieve this, we employed a combination of Geographic Information System (GIS) technology and Cragg's Double Hurdle Econometric Model as analytical tools. Our approach integrates an econometric model of land use with GIS simulations that predict the spatial pattern of land-use change. The results revealed that crop production lands have been converted into artisanal small-scale mining (galamsey) sites, a development which has implications on food security, life on land and effective utilizations of land and water resources. The results also showed that membership in Farmer-Based Organizations (FBOs), access to credit, and low yield of food crops influenced farmers to shift from crop production to participate in mining activities. In addition, the extent of participation in mining was influenced by family size, membership in FBOs, and low crop yield. While mining operations offer substantial economic benefits, it is crucial to strike a balance between land use for mining activities and food crop production. This is because it has the potential to worsen recent hikes in food prices and subsequently leading to rising inflation rates in Ghana. Our findings have implications on achieving multiple SDGs, viz. SDG 2 (Zero Hunger), SDG 6 (Clean Water and Sanitation) and SDG 15 (Life on Land) as minimizing illegal mining helps increase food production as well as protect water bodies and land. We therefore suggest that government should take steps to make credit accessible to farmers by collaborating with financial institutions and also collaborate with Crops Research Institutes to develop high-yielding crop varieties. Future research could focus on exploring the impact of participating in mining activities on the profitability of food crop production in Ghana.<\/p>\n<div class=\"dspaceDetails\">\n<p class=\"ifb-desc\"><strong>Year published<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>2024<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"dspaceDetails\">\n<p class=\"ifb-desc\"><strong>Authors<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Wongnaa, Camillus Abawiera; Nti, Emmanuel Kwame; Acheampong, Patricia Pinamang; Bannor, Richard Kwasi; Prah, Stephen; Babu, Suresh Chandra<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"dspaceDetails\">\n<p><strong>Citation<\/strong><\/p>\n<p class=\"citationDisplay uagb-ifb-desc \" data-identifier =\"10568\/139601\">Wongnaa, Camillus Abawiera; Nti, Emmanuel Kwame; Acheampong, Patricia Pinamang; Bannor, Richard Kwasi; Prah, Stephen; and Babu, Suresh Chandra. 2024.

Value chain research using secondary data is made difficult by selection problems, whereas experimental research is logistically very difficult and lacks external validity. With the intention of conducting a field experiment, we piloted an intervention connecting smallholder groundnut farmers in Ghana to a premium groundnut processor through aggregators. While we successfully delivered inputs and training to farmers, we failed in our attempts to link aggregators with downstream processors over two growing seasons. In this paper, we situate the challenges we faced in the broader literature on value chains and identify three problems that prevented us from establishing a value chain for high quality groundnuts: uncertainty, cash constraints, and trust. To help inform future research on this topic, we propose three specific interventions that could mitigate these problems.<\/p>\n<div class=\"dspaceDetails\">\n<p class=\"ifb-desc\"><strong>Year published<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>2024<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"dspaceDetails\">\n<p class=\"ifb-desc\"><strong>Authors<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Posey, Sean; Magnan, Nicholas; McCullough, Ellen B.; Hoffmann, Vivian; Opoku, Nelson; Alidu, Abdul-Hafiz<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"dspaceDetails\">\n<p><strong>Citation<\/strong><\/p>\n<p class=\"citationDisplay uagb-ifb-desc \" data-identifier =\"10568\/140731\">Posey, Sean; Magnan, Nicholas; McCullough, Ellen B.; Hoffman, Vivian; Opoku, Nelson; and Alidu, Abdul-Hafiz.

This study aims to develop and validate an instrument to measure time-use agency. It follows a sequenced approach involving qualitative and quantitative research, with exploratory and confirmatory factor analyses and assessment of concurrent validity. The authors conducted surveys with women and men within an impact assessment of a livelihoods program being implemented across rural districts in Ghana. Results indicate a three-factor model with subscales for intrinsic time-use agency, voice related to time use, and decision making related to time use, which were each positively correlated with an item on satisfaction with time use. This time-use agency scale should be validated widely and used within global health and development programs.<\/p>\n<div class=\"dspaceDetails\">\n<p class=\"ifb-desc\"><strong>Year published<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>2023<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"dspaceDetails\">\n<p class=\"ifb-desc\"><strong>Authors<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Sinharoy, Sheela; Cheong, Yuk Fai; Heckert, Jessica; Seymour, Greg; Johnson, Erin R.; Yount, Kathryn M.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"dspaceDetails\">\n<p><strong>Citation<\/strong><\/p>\n<p class=\"citationDisplay uagb-ifb-desc \" data-identifier =\"10568\/140382\">Sinharoy, Sheela; Cheong, Yuk Fai; Heckert, Jessica; Seymour, Greg; Johnson, Erin R.; and Yount, Kathryn M. 2023.

We discuss the evolution of the conceptualization and measurement of women's empowerment and gender equality since 2010. Using a gender and food systems framework and a standardized measure of women's empowerment, the Women's Empowerment in Agriculture Index (WEAI), we review the evidence on \u201cwhat works\u201d to empower women based on impact evaluations of a portfolio of 11 agricultural development projects with empowerment objectives and a scoping review of livestock interventions. We then review the evidence on associations between empowering women and societal benefits--agricultural productivity, incomes, and food security and nutrition.

Results show that resilience capacity moderate or mediates the negative effects of heat stress and drought on food security. However, the mediating role of resilience capacity in the shock-food security nexus is more stable and stronger than its moderating role. A standard deviation (SD) increase in heat stress reduces household food consumption by 0.71 SD, but resilience capacity effectively moderates this effect by approximately 0.61 SD. For drought, household food consumption is reduced by 0.67 SD, but resilience capacity effectively dampens this negative effect by approximately 0.60 SD. The mediation results, on the other hand, indicate that 537% of the total effect of heat stress on household calorie consumption is explained by the indirect effect through resilience capacity. Similarly, resilience capacity mediates about 74% of the total effect of heat stress on household food consumption. These results suggest that strategies that help improve resilience capacity, such as the adoption of sustainable intensification practices, are critical in enhancing food security in northern Ghana.<\/p>\n<div class=\"dspaceDetails\">\n<p class=\"ifb-desc\"><strong>Year published<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>2023<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"dspaceDetails\">\n<p class=\"ifb-desc\"><strong>Authors<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Ansah, I.G.K.; Kotu, Bekele Hundie; Manda, J.; Muthoni, F.K.; Azzarri, C.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"dspaceDetails\">\n<p><strong>Citation<\/strong><\/p>\n<p class=\"citationDisplay uagb-ifb-desc \" data-identifier =\"10568\/130570\">Ansah, I.G.K., Kotu, B.H., Manda, J., Muthoni, F.K. & Azzarri, C.

This question is particularly salient in Africa's growing cities where local governments must reconcile policy priorities across highly heterogeneous constituencies, including a burgeoning middle-class and a large informal economy. We argue that expectations about reciprocity and procedural justice shape the probability that informal traders trust their local government. In doing so, we analyse a survey of approximately 1000 informal traders in Ghana's three main cities \u2013 Accra, Kumasi and Tamale. We find that traders who paid requisite fees to local assemblies and could attribute a benefit from those payments were more likely to trust their local government while those who had experienced harassment by city authorities were less likely to do so. The paper highlights that drivers of trust among diverse urban constituencies deserve greater empirical and comparative attention, especially as countries deepen decentralisation initiatives and cities commit to development goals around inclusivity.<\/p>\n<div class=\"dspaceDetails\">\n<p class=\"ifb-desc\"><strong>Year published<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>2023<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"dspaceDetails\">\n<p class=\"ifb-desc\"><strong>Authors<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Resnick, Danielle; Sivasubramanian, Bhavna<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"dspaceDetails\">\n<p><strong>Citation<\/strong><\/p>\n<p class=\"citationDisplay uagb-ifb-desc \" data-identifier =\"10568\/139972\">Resnick, Danielle; and Sivasubramanian, Bhavna. 2023.

We conduct a framed field experiment in northern Ghana to study how incentives and peer information may affect adoption. Incentives increase adoption, both while they are available and after withdrawal. There is no overall effect of peer information, but we do find evidence that information about long-term adoption increased adoption, particularly when that information shows that yield gains have been achieved.<\/p>\n<div class=\"dspaceDetails\">\n<p class=\"ifb-desc\"><strong>Year published<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>2023<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"dspaceDetails\">\n<p class=\"ifb-desc\"><strong>Authors<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Ambler, Kate; Brauw, Alan de; Murphy, Mike<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"dspaceDetails\">\n<p><strong>Citation<\/strong><\/p>\n<p class=\"citationDisplay uagb-ifb-desc \" data-identifier =\"10568\/131867\">Ambler, Kate; de Brauw, Alan; and Murphy, Mike. 2023.

We investigate the relationship between adoption of climate-resilient groundnut varieties and production, consumption, and smallholder commercialization using panel data from Ghana, Mali, and Nigeria. We find adoption of climate resilient groundnut varieties to increase smallholder production, consumption, and commercialization. The biggest adoption impact gains are observed under the sustained use of these climate-resilient varieties. We show that adoption benefits all households, but the biggest gains are found among smaller producers, suggesting that adoption is inclusive. Furthermore, we provide suggestive evidence that yield increases could explain commercialization, although household consumption also matters.

Dietary assessment tools leveraging mobile technologies exist but few have been validated in LMICs.<\/p>\n<p>Objective<br \/>\nWe validated FRANI (Food Recognition Assistance and Nudging Insights), a mobile Artificial Intelligence (AI) dietary assessment application in adolescent females aged 12\u201318y (n = 36) in Ghana, against weighed records (WR), and multi-pass 24-hour recalls (24HR).<\/p>\n<p>Methods<br \/>\nDietary intake was assessed during three non-consecutive days using FRANI, WRs and 24HRs. Equivalence of nutrient intake was tested using mixed effect models adjusted for repeated measures, by comparing ratios (FRANI\/WR and 24HR\/WR) with equivalence margins at 10%, 15% and 20% error bounds. Agreement between methods was assessed using the concordance correlation coefficient (CCC).<\/p>\n<p>Results<br \/>\nEquivalence for FRANI and WR was determined at the 10% bound for energy intake, 15% for five nutrients (iron, zinc, folate, niacin, and vitamin B6), and 20% for protein, calcium, riboflavin, and thiamine intakes. Comparisons between 24HR and WR estimated equivalence at the 20% bound for energy, carbohydrate, fibre, calcium, thiamine and vitamin A intakes. The CCCs by nutrient between FRANI and WR ranged between 0.30 and 0.68, which was similar for CCC between 24HR and WR (ranging between 0.38 and 0.67). Comparisons of food consumption episodes from FRANI and WR found 31% omission and 16% intrusion errors. Omission and intrusion errors were lower when comparing 24HR to WR (21% and 13% respectively).<\/p>\n<p>Conclusions<br \/>\nFRANI AI-assisted dietary assessment could accurately estimate nutrient intake in adolescent females compared to WR in urban Ghana. FRANI estimates were at least as accurate as those provided through 24HR. Further improvements in food-recognition and portion estimation in FRANI could reduce errors and improve overall nutrient intake estimations.<\/p>\n<div class=\"dspaceDetails\">\n<p class=\"ifb-desc\"><strong>Year published<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>2023<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"dspaceDetails\">\n<p class=\"ifb-desc\"><strong>Authors<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Folson, Gloria; Bannerman, Boateng; Atadze, Vicentia; Ador, Gabriel; Kolt, Bastien; McCloske, Peter; Gangupantulu, Rohit; Arrieta, Alejandra; Braga, Bianca C.; Arsenault, Joanne; Kehs, Annalyse; Doyle, Frank; Tran, Lan Mai; Hoang, Nga Thu; Hughes, David; Nguyen, Phuong Hong; Gelli, Aulo<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"dspaceDetails\">\n<p><strong>Citation<\/strong><\/p>\n<p class=\"citationDisplay uagb-ifb-desc \" data-identifier =\"10568\/130688\">Folson, Gloria; Kolt, Bastien; Arrieta, Alejandra; Nguyen, Phuong Hong; Gelli, Aulo; et al. 2023.

The framework employs a non-unitary household model with expected utility to quantify welfare benefits associated with non-monetary outcomes that are important from a development perspective, such as improved consumption smoothing, empowerment, and changes in time use. We demonstrate the application of the framework using a case study of climate information services (CIS) in Ghana. We develop a set of individual bargaining weights based on the women\u2019s empowerment in agriculture index, to demonstrate how benefits from CIS are distributed among men and women within households. We find that for the average risk-averse farmer, using CIS is associated with a 37-percent increase in expected utility, but male household heads benefit more than women living in male-headed households. Cost\u2013benefit analyses that do not consider the intrahousehold distribution of benefits associated with agricultural innovations will overestimate benefits accruing to women with low bargaining power.<\/p>\n<div class=\"dspaceDetails\">\n<p class=\"ifb-desc\"><strong>Year published<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>2023<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"dspaceDetails\">\n<p class=\"ifb-desc\"><strong>Authors<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Kramer, Berber; Timu, Anne G.; Damba, Osman<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"dspaceDetails\">\n<p><strong>Citation<\/strong><\/p>\n<p class=\"citationDisplay uagb-ifb-desc \" data-identifier =\"10568\/131863\">Kramer, Berber; Timu, Anne G.; and Damba, Osman. 2023.

We analyzed data from four focus group discussions with male partners of women who participated in the Ghana Livelihood Empowerment Against Poverty (LEAP) 1000 cash transfer program. We elicited men's perceptions of poverty, relationship dynamics, IPV and cash transfers targeted to their wives using thematic analysis. Men largely viewed the effects of the cash transfer as positive \u2013 they felt decreased provider role strain when women used the cash to cover household expenses such as food and school fees. Men also indicated that they felt respected when women used the cash to cover sudden expenses, such as funeral costs, thus preventing the need to borrow from community members and exposing their inability to fulfill provider roles. These feelings of relief and respect helped improve men's overall wellbeing, their marital relationships and reduced the potential for IPV. Despite these positive results, men revealed that they still expected to be informed and consulted about the transfer and its expenditure, and felt disrespected when women did not do so, thus heightening the potential for household conflict. Further research and innovation in programming is needed to integrate gender transformative strategies into cash transfer programs, explicitly aimed at changing gender norms to enhance and sustain beneficial impacts on gender relations and IPV.<\/p>\n<div class=\"dspaceDetails\">\n<p class=\"ifb-desc\"><strong>Year published<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>2023<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"dspaceDetails\">\n<p class=\"ifb-desc\"><strong>Authors<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Pereira, Audrey; Akaligaung, Akalpa J.; Aborigo, Raymond; Peterman, Amber; Palermo, Tia; Barrington, Clare<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"dspaceDetails\">\n<p><strong>Citation<\/strong><\/p>\n<p class=\"citationDisplay uagb-ifb-desc \" data-identifier =\"10568\/140022\">Pereira, Audrey; Akaligaung, Akalpa J.; Aborigo, Raymond; Peterman, Amber; Palermo, Tia; and Barrington, Clare. 2023. \u2018Joy, not sorrow\u2019: Men's perspectives on gender, violence, and cash transfers targeted to women in northern Ghana.

While global levels of pesticides are towering in high-income countries, pesticide use in many parts of Africa remains low, with significant impacts on agricultural productivity and food production. We use a rich longitudinal dataset to examine the relationship between farmer advisory systems and pesticide use in legume-based production systems in Ghana, Mali, and Nigeria. We find that farmers who are advised by private extension systems are approximately 8 % more likely to use pesticides at an extensive level. They also use pesticides more intensively (41 %). On the other hand, farmers advised by public extension systems are about 5 % more likely to extensively use pesticides. These farmers are observed to reduce the intensive use of pesticides by about 14 %. Furthermore, we also show that farmers advised by joint private-public extension systems are about 4 % more likely to use pesticides as well as reduce their intensity of use by approximately 11 %. At the various country levels, there exists significant heterogeneity in the relationship between advisory systems and pesticide use, suggesting that context matters. Of course, the pesticide regulatory systems and the institutional environments in these countries vary greatly.

We investigated what rural households in Northern Ghana would need to grow to ensure year-round availability of a nutrient adequate diet or the income required to fulfil their dietary needs. We applied linear programming to model different scenarios and interventions. Our results provide three major insights. First, considering seasonality is crucial in nutrition-sensitive farming. Ensuring a nutritious diet year-round requires enhanced availability of vegetables and fruits throughout the year. Second, although staple crops do not provide the full range of essential nutrients, increasing their yields allows for a reduction of field size, freeing up space for the production of other foods belonging to a nutritious diet, such as vegetables. Third, small farms are unable to produce sufficient food to cover their needs. They depend on income both from agriculture and other sources, and the availability of types of foods on markets to meet their dietary needs. Our study shows the value of modelling the range of dietary effects from agricultural interventions in a specific context, using a local feasible nutritious diet as a starting point and taking seasonality into account.<\/p>\n<div class=\"dspaceDetails\">\n<p class=\"ifb-desc\"><strong>Year published<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>2023<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"dspaceDetails\">\n<p class=\"ifb-desc\"><strong>Authors<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>de Jager, Ilse; van de Ven, Gerrie W.

We find that all three technologies yield positive returns on investment, but their applicability varies spatially and across community due to differences in capital costs and environmental feasibilities or conditions. Sensitivity analyses indicate the base decision parameters \u2013 net present value, benefit\u2013cost ratio and internal rate of return \u2013 remain stable despite potential changes in the flow of future benefits or costs. This provides further evidence about the worthiness of investment in irrigation infrastructure and technologies. However, significant under-utilized infrastructural capacities exist that warrant complementary investment in human and institutional capacities.

Lessons from Northern Ghana<\/h4>\n<p class=\"ifResourcesAbstractA\">Given persistent gender inequalities that influence how the benefits of technologies are distributed, the expansion of small-scale irrigation technologies requires the consideration of important gender dynamics and impacts. Women's lack of agency and access to resources relative to men, and other social constraints, often limit their ability to adopt and benefit from agricultural technologies. At the same time, expanding access to agricultural technology to women may provide a pathway for empowerment. This paper explores the potential for small-scale irrigation technologies to increase women's empowerment by evaluating the impacts of an intervention that distributed motor pumps to small groups of farmers in Northern Ghana. The paper draws on two rounds of survey data that included the Women's Empowerment in Agriculture Index, before and after the motor pump intervention was implemented. To control for possible selection bias at the baseline, the difference-in-difference method is used to estimate the impact of the program on indicators of women's empowerment. Spillover effects are estimated by comparing outcomes of farmers in treatment villages that did not receive the pumps with farmers in control villages, where no motor pumps were distributed. The results show no significant impact of the program on measures of women's empowerment. However, there are potential negative impacts, including among households that did not benefit from the intervention. The results highlight the need to pair interventions that distribute agricultural technologies with complementary investments in infrastructure that increase access to water for irrigation, as well as other activities and approaches that ensure women can reap the benefits.<\/p>\n<div class=\"dspaceDetails\">\n<p class=\"ifb-desc\"><strong>Year published<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>2023<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"dspaceDetails\">\n<p class=\"ifb-desc\"><strong>Authors<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Bryan, Elizabeth; Mekonnen, Dawit Kelemework<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"dspaceDetails\">\n<p><strong>Citation<\/strong><\/p>\n<p class=\"citationDisplay uagb-ifb-desc \" data-identifier =\"10568\/139982\">Bryan, Elizabeth; and Mekonnen, Dawit Kelemework. 2023.

We report results from a randomized trial of the government of Ghana\u2019s school feeding. After two years, the program led to moderate average increases in math and literacy standardized scores among pupils in treatment communities, and to larger achievement gains for girls and disadvantaged children and regions. Improvements in child schooling, cognition, and nutrition constituted suggestive impact mechanisms, especially for educationally-disadvantaged groups.

There is limited evidence that phone-based interventions can improve nutrition data collection and dietary quality, especially for adolescents in developing countries. We developed an artificial-intelligence-based phone application called Food Recognition Assistance and Nudging Insights (FRANI) to address these problems. FRANI can recognize foods in images, track food consumption, display statistics and use gamified nudges to give positive feedback on healthy food choice. This study protocol describes the design of new pilot studies aimed at measuring the feasibility (acceptability, adherence, and usability) of FRANI and its effects on the quality of food choice of adolescents in Ghana and Vietnam. In each country, 36 adolescents (12\u201318 years) will be randomly allocated into two groups: The intervention group with the full version of FRANI and the control group with the functionality limited to image recognition and dietary assessment. Participants in both groups will have their food choices tracked for four weeks. The control groups will then switch to the full version of FRANI and both groups will be tracked for a further 2 weeks to assess acceptability, adherence, and usability. Analysis of outcomes will be by intent to treat and differences in outcomes between intervention and control group will use Poisson and odds ratio regression models, accounting for repeated measures at individual levels. If deemed feasible, acceptable and usable, FRANI will address gaps in the literature and advance the nutrition field by potentially improving the quality of food choices of adolescent girls in developing countries. This pilot study will also provide insights on the design of a large randomized controlled trial. The functioning and dissemination of FRANI can be an important step towards highly scalable nutrition data collection and healthier food choices for a population at risk of malnutrition.<\/p>\n<div class=\"dspaceDetails\">\n<p class=\"ifb-desc\"><strong>Year published<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>2022<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"dspaceDetails\">\n<p class=\"ifb-desc\"><strong>Authors<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Braga, Bianca C.; Arrieta, Alejandra; Bannerman, Boateng; Doyle, Frank; Koch, Bastien; Nguyen, Phuong Hong; Gelli, Aulo<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"dspaceDetails\">\n<p><strong>Citation<\/strong><\/p>\n<p class=\"citationDisplay uagb-ifb-desc \" data-identifier =\"10568\/127235\">Braga, Bianca C.; Arrieta, Alejandra; Bannerman, Boeteng; Doyle, Frank; Koch, Bastien; Nguyen, Phuong Hong; Gelli, Aulo; et al. 2022.

A major objective of the government and its partners is to ensure that this rapid growth is sustainable and includes small-scale farmers and poor rural producers. This paper evaluates the aquaculture trainings implemented in six main tilapia-producing regions in Ghana as part of the Ghana Tilapia Seed Project. The impact evaluation is designed as a cluster randomized controlled trial, with half of the producing districts randomly-assigned as the treatment and the rest as the control, complemented by qualitative interviews. One year after the trainings, results show positive impacts on the adoption of good record-keeping, water management, and some biosecurity practices, and on productivity and incomes. In terms of mechanism, improved management practices resulted from reducing overstocking, reducing inbreeding, maintaining water level for fish ponds, regular pond clearing and establishing physical barriers, following advice and recommendations on feeding practices, and complementing feeding practices with farmers\u2019 own feed formulation. Half of the trained farmers experienced lower fish mortality, faster growth, and heavier fish at harvest. Marketing and processing advice through the trainings and complementary FishConnect WhatsApp platform likely contributed to higher incomes, although the platform's coverage and regular updating can be improved.<\/p>\n<div class=\"dspaceDetails\">\n<p class=\"ifb-desc\"><strong>Year published<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>2022<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"dspaceDetails\">\n<p class=\"ifb-desc\"><strong>Authors<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Ragasa, Catherine; Amewu, Sena; Agyakwah, Seth K.; Mensah, Emmanuel; Asmah, Ruby<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"dspaceDetails\">\n<p><strong>Citation<\/strong><\/p>\n<p class=\"citationDisplay uagb-ifb-desc \" data-identifier =\"10568\/127231\">Ragasa, Catherine; Amewu, Sena; Agyakwah, Seth Koranteng; Mensah, Emmanuel; and Asmah, Ruby. 2022.

However, evaluating the impact of public agriculture expenditure on food security remains scanty. This paper assessed the impact of public expenditure on food security in nine ECOWAS countries using four indicators of food security, one in each dimension (availability, access, utilization and stability). Using a fixed-effect generalized least squares model the study found that public agricultural expenditure has improved. However, this has not translated to an automatic improvement in food security. The levels of stunting and undernourishment were still high in the nine ECOWAS countries. A one-unit increase in public agriculture expenditure was associated with a 0.2% reduction in undernourishment andan improved average dietary energy supply adequacy between 2000 and 2016. The paper concluded that the nine ECOWAS countries have made considerable progress in improving food availability, that public agriculture expenditure by share has increased in the nine ECOWAS countries since the inception of CAADP, with several countries meeting the 10% target of spending on agriculture for several years and that public agricultural expenditure had a positive impact on food accessibility and availability. The analysis could be replicated in the design of national food security investment plans and help identify strategies to accelerate food security and nutrition improvements in African countries.<\/p>\n<div class=\"dspaceDetails\">\n<p class=\"ifb-desc\"><strong>Year published<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>2022<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"dspaceDetails\">\n<p class=\"ifb-desc\"><strong>Authors<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Kamenya, Madalitso A.; Hendricks, Sheryl L.; Gandidzanwa, Colleta; Ulimwengu, John M.; Odjo, Sunday P.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"dspaceDetails\">\n<p><strong>Citation<\/strong><\/p>\n<p class=\"citationDisplay uagb-ifb-desc \" data-identifier =\"10568\/141112\">Kamenya, Madalitso A.; Hendricks, Sheryl L.; Gandidzanwa, Colleta; Ulimwengu, John M.; and Odjo, Sunday.

While subsidy programs traditionally focused on helping farmers access inputs, new generation market smart subsidies additionally emphasize careful targeting, development of input supply systems, and complementary production and marketing support mechanisms. Ghana\u2019s Planting for Food and Jobs (PFJ) initiative, launched in 2017, is one example of such an evolved subsidy program; yet, despite its scale and prominence, the current government monitoring and evaluation system is not well equipped to accurately assess its impacts. This paper triangulates evidence from multiple public sources and independent evaluations to develop a simple and effective impact assessment model for PFJ that can easily be adopted by the government. It can also be adapted to other contexts with minimal adjustment. Model results reveal that maize and rice production levels are more than 40 percent higher than they would have been in the absence of PFJ, thus contributing significantly to food and calorie availability in Ghana. However, there is much room for efficiency improvements that would increase the return on investment-currently, program benefits roughly equal public and private costs of the program. In this regard, several recommendations are made relating to beneficiary targeting, crowding out of commercial input sales, input use efficiency, marketing support to farmers, and improvements in the monitoring and evaluation system, all of which have relevance for other countries implementing or considering similar programs.<\/p>\n<div class=\"dspaceDetails\">\n<p class=\"ifb-desc\"><strong>Year published<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>2022<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"dspaceDetails\">\n<p class=\"ifb-desc\"><strong>Authors<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Pauw, Karl<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"dspaceDetails\">\n<p><strong>Citation<\/strong><\/p>\n<p class=\"citationDisplay uagb-ifb-desc \" data-identifier =\"10568\/127914\">Pauw, Karl.

This paper explores local perceptions of empowerment in the Upper East Region of Ghana and the pathways through which small-scale irrigation intervention targeted to men and women farmers contributes to women\u2019s empowerment. Using qualitative data collected with 144 farmers and traders through 28 individual interviews and 16 focus group discussions, this paper innovates a framework to integrate the linkages between small-scale irrigation and three dimensions of women\u2019s empowerment: resources, agency, and achievements. The relationship between the components of empowerment and small-scale irrigation are placed within a larger context of social change underlying these relationships. This shows that many women face serious constraints to participating in and benefitting from small-scale irrigation, including difficulties accessing land and water and gender norms that limit women\u2019s ability to control farm assets. Despite these constraints, many women do benefit from participating in irrigated farming activities leading to an increase in their agency and well-being achievements. For some women, these benefits are indirect\u2014these women allocate their time to more preferred activities when the household gains access to modern irrigation technology. The result is a new approach to understanding women\u2019s empowerment in relation to irrigation technology.<\/p>\n<div class=\"dspaceDetails\">\n<p class=\"ifb-desc\"><strong>Year published<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>2022<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"dspaceDetails\">\n<p class=\"ifb-desc\"><strong>Authors<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Bryan, Elizabeth; Garner, Elisabeth<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"dspaceDetails\">\n<p><strong>Citation<\/strong><\/p>\n<p class=\"citationDisplay uagb-ifb-desc \" data-identifier =\"10568\/141415\">Bryan, Elizabeth; and Garner, Elisabeth.

Evidence from Ghana<\/h4>\n<p class=\"ifResourcesAbstractA\">This paper aims to assess the coverage and contribution of different information and communication technology (ICT) tools (mobile phone, WhatsApp platform, television, and radio) in the dissemination of aquaculture and market information to fish farmers in Ghana. Data from a 2021 survey of 391 active fish farmers were analyzed using propensity score matching, inverse probability weighted regression adjustment, and multivariate probit regression models. Mobile phone (phone-based app, internet search, or social media) is the most used ICT tool for aquaculture advice, followed by television programs. Results show that receiving aquaculture information through ICT tools has a positive and significant average treatment effect on the adoption of good management practices, farm productivity, and farmers' income. Farmers receiving aquaculture information from mobile phone and television programs had higher adoption of good practices, production, and income on average. Farmers receiving aquaculture information from both ICT tools and extension agents achieved the highest harvest and income on average. Results also show that the adoption of the various ICT tools is interrelated, whereas several factors\u2014including age, education, farming experience, share of fish farming in household income, and extension contact\u2014influence the choice of ICT tool. Mobile-based extension was more accessible to youth and more educated farmers, and it could be a good medium for reaching these groups. Television and radio programs are accessible to all types of farmers from different backgrounds; these media are currently underutilized for aquaculture promotion and their application could be enhanced and expanded for current and future projects.<\/p>\n<div class=\"dspaceDetails\">\n<p class=\"ifb-desc\"><strong>Year published<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>2022<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"dspaceDetails\">\n<p class=\"ifb-desc\"><strong>Authors<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Ntiri, Prosper; Ragasa, Catherine; Anang, Samuel Afotey; Kuwornu, John K.

We adopt the newly defined marginal treatment effect approach in examining how farmers\u2019 resource endowment and unobserved factors influence the marginal benefits of adopting sustainable intensification (SI) practices. We estimate both the marginal and average benefits of adopting SI practices and predict which marginal farm household entrants will benefit the most at scale. Findings indicate that farmers\u2019 resource endowment and unobserved factors affect the marginal benefits of adopting SI practices, which also influence maize yield and net returns among adopters. Finally, results imply that scaling up SI practices will favour farm household entrants associated with the lowest probability of adoption based on observed socioeconomic characteristics.<\/p>\n<div class=\"dspaceDetails\">\n<p class=\"ifb-desc\"><strong>Year published<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>2022<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"dspaceDetails\">\n<p class=\"ifb-desc\"><strong>Authors<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Bedi, S.M.; Azzarri, Carlo; Kotu, Bekele Hundie; Kornher, L.; Braun, Joachim von<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"dspaceDetails\">\n<p><strong>Citation<\/strong><\/p>\n<p class=\"citationDisplay uagb-ifb-desc \" data-identifier =\"10568\/118106\">Mellon Bedi, S., Azzarri, C., Hundie Kotu, B., Kornher, L., & von Braun, J.

We used Cox proportional hazard models with sample weighting to model the prevalence ratio (PR) of malnutrition.<\/p>\n<p>Setting: Countrywide, covering rural and urban areas in Ghana.<\/p>\n<p>Participants: Non-pregnant adolescent girls aged 15\u201319 years.<\/p>\n<p>Results: Compared with 2003, thinness declined marginally (PR 0\u00b788 (95 % CI 0\u00b745, 1\u00b773)) in 2008 and in 2014 (PR 0\u00b771 (95 % CI 0\u00b738, 1\u00b756)). Stunting declined marginally by 19 % in 2008 (PR 0\u00b781 (95 % CI 0\u00b759, 1\u00b712)), flattening out in 2014 (PR 0\u00b781 (95 % CI 0\u00b757, 1\u00b717)). We found an increasing trend of overweight\/obesity with the PR peaking in 2014 (PR 1\u00b739 (95 % CI 1\u00b702, 1\u00b788)) compared to 2003. The anaemia prevalence remained severe without a clear trend. A low level of education of the adolescent girl was positively associated with stunting. Increasing age was positively associated with stunting but inversely associated with thinness and anaemia. Girls who ever bore a child were more likely to be anaemic compared to those who never did. A lower level of household wealth and a unit increase in household size was negatively associated with overweight\/obesity. Urban dwelling girls were less likely to be stunted.<\/p>\n<p>Conclusions: The stagnant burden of under-nutrition and rising over-nutrition emphasise the need for double-duty actions to tackle malnutrition in all its forms in Ghanaian adolescent girls<\/p>\n<div class=\"dspaceDetails\">\n<p class=\"ifb-desc\"><strong>Year published<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>2022<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"dspaceDetails\">\n<p class=\"ifb-desc\"><strong>Authors<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Azupogo, Fusta; Abizari, Abdul-Razak; Aurino, Elisabetta; Gelli, Aulo; Osendarp, Saskia J.

A key element, and often a challenge in the decision-making process, involves the balancing of identified potential risks with expected economic benefits from GM crops. The latter is particularly challenging in the case of orphan crops, for which solid economic data is scarce. To address this challenge, the International Food Policy Research Institute (IFPRI) in collaboration with local economists analyzed the expected economic benefits to farmers and consumers from the adoption of GM crops in 5 sub-Saharan African countries. This paper focuses on case studies involving insect-resistant cowpea in Nigeria and Ghana; disease-resistant cassava in Uganda and Tanzania; and disease-resistant banana in Uganda. Estimations from these case studies show substantial economic benefits to farmers and consumers from the timely adoption and planting in farmers\u2019 fields of GM orphan crops. Our analysis also shows how the benefits would significantly be reduced by regulatory or other delays that affect the timely release of these crops. These findings underscore the importance of having an enabling policy environment and regulatory system\u2014covering, among other elements, biosafety and food\/feed safety assessment, and varietal release registration\u2014that is efficient, predictable, and transparent to ensure that the projected economic benefits are delivered and realized in a timely manner.<\/p>\n<div class=\"dspaceDetails\">\n<p class=\"ifb-desc\"><strong>Year published<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>2022<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"dspaceDetails\">\n<p class=\"ifb-desc\"><strong>Authors<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Zambrano, Patricia; Wood-Sichra, Ulrike; Ruhinduka, Remidius D.; Phillip, Dayo; Nin Pratt, Alejandro; Komen, John; Kikulwe, Enoch Mutebi; Falck Zepeda, Jos\u00e9; Dzanku, Fred M.; Chambers, Judith A.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"dspaceDetails\">\n<p><strong>Citation<\/strong><\/p>\n<p class=\"citationDisplay uagb-ifb-desc \" data-identifier =\"10568\/120346\">Zambrano, P.; Wood-Sichra, U.; Ruhinduka, R.D.; Phillip, D.; Nin Pratt, A.; Komen, J.; Kikulwe, E.M.; Falck Zepeda, J.; Dzanku, F.M.; Chambers, J.A.

While the focus has historically been on large-scale dam-based schemes, farmer-managed small-scale irrigation (SSI) has gained increased attention in recent years. Using data from Ethiopia, Tanzania and Ghana, we first examine patterns of adoption of different SSI technologies. Next, we employ hierarchical modelling to examine which variables are associated with observed adoption patterns and cluster effects that explain variation in irrigation adoption. We document significant cross-country variation in adoption patterns and find a positive association between plot-level use of SSI and the intensity of agricultural labor and inorganic fertilizers applied on the plot. Community-level intra-cluster correlation (ICC) is the highest in Tanzania, where gravity-fed irrigation is most common while farm-level ICC is the highest in Ethiopia where motorized technologies are more common. These results suggest the need for localized investments to ease locale-specific potential constraints. For example, easing possible liquidity constraints to acquiring motorized technologies can be more effective in Ethiopia while the construction of dams and improved conveyance systems, as well as the strengthening of community-based irrigation management (e.g., through Water User Associations (WUAs)) can be more effective in Tanzania. Further research is needed to understand pathways for selected plot-level characteristics that affect use of SSI including status of plot ownership and the gender of the plot manager.<\/p>\n<div class=\"dspaceDetails\">\n<p class=\"ifb-desc\"><strong>Year published<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>2022<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"dspaceDetails\">\n<p class=\"ifb-desc\"><strong>Authors<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Haile, Beliyou; Mekonnen, Dawit Kelemework; Choufani, Jowel; Ringler, Claudia; Bryan, Elizabeth<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"dspaceDetails\">\n<p><strong>Citation<\/strong><\/p>\n<p class=\"citationDisplay uagb-ifb-desc \" data-identifier =\"10568\/141226\">Haile, Beliyou; Mekonnen, Dawit; Choufani, Jowel; Ringler, Claudia; and Bryan, Elizabeth. 2022.

A potential solution is for farmers to produce their own feeds using cheaper and locally available ingredients. This paper evaluates the feed formulation training implemented in Ghana as part of the Fisheries Commission's activities under the Ghana Aquaculture for Food and Jobs program. This paper analyzes baseline and follow-up survey data using difference-in-difference estimation and analysis of covariance. One year after the training, results show positive impact on the farmers' knowledge of feed formulation, quantity of feed formulated, feeding and management practices, productivity, and income. Feed formulation training encouraged more farmers to formulate their own feeds and maintained or increased total feeds used in their facilities from 2018\/2019 to 2020\/21. Among the farmers who did not receive training, feed formulation activities and feed quantity used reduced from 2018\/19 to 2020\/21. A common practice is the use of locally available quality commercial feed as starter feed for smaller fish and own-formulated feeds as a complement for or alternative to commercial growout feeds for bigger fish. Especially when constrained by lack of funds, many farmers reduce the use of commercial feeds and formulate their feeds using cheaper and locally available raw materials to maintain similar levels of feeding intensity. Feed formulation acts as an important coping strategy in the context of small-scale farmers with limited financial resources. This study recommends scaling out feed formulation training and expanding research on optimal fish nutrition using locally available and low-cost raw materials, in combination with commercial feeds to maximize productivity and incomes for farmers.<\/p>\n<div class=\"dspaceDetails\">\n<p class=\"ifb-desc\"><strong>Year published<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>2022<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"dspaceDetails\">\n<p class=\"ifb-desc\"><strong>Authors<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Ragasa, Catherine; Mensah, Yaa Osei; Amewu, Sena<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"dspaceDetails\">\n<p><strong>Citation<\/strong><\/p>\n<p class=\"citationDisplay uagb-ifb-desc \" data-identifier =\"10568\/141245\">Ragasa, Catherine; Mensah, Yaa Osei; and Amewu, Sena. 2022.

We present a consumer-centered approach to identifying options for improving diets. The Value Chains for Nutrition (VCN) mixed-methods multi-disciplinary analytical approach was applied in rural Ghana. Data from in-depth consumer interviews, structured vendor interviews, and (secondary) household consumption surveys were analyzed to assess consumer diet patterns, related norms and preferences, and supply and demand characteristics of a set of empirically defined high-potential nutritious foods. Mapping results onto a supply\u2013demand typology, we identify promising interventions to support increased availability, access, and affordability of these foods. Consumption data suggested that diets among Ghanaians were deficient in key micronutrients and calories. Fresh nutritious fruits and vegetables tended to be grown for home consumption rather than sale due to transportation challenges and seasonality of demand, especially near rural markets. Seasonal availability (fruits and vegetables) and affordability (animal foods) severely limited consumption of many nutritious foods. A set of supply, demand, and value chain interventions to enhance availability and affordability of nutritious foods are presented. Critical to success is to consider the set of interventions along each value chain required for impact.<\/p>\n<div class=\"dspaceDetails\">\n<p class=\"ifb-desc\"><strong>Year published<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>2022<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"dspaceDetails\">\n<p class=\"ifb-desc\"><strong>Authors<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Aberman, Noora-Lisa; Gelli, Aulo; Agandin, John; Kufoalor, Doreen; Donovan, Jason<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"dspaceDetails\">\n<p><strong>Citation<\/strong><\/p>\n<p class=\"citationDisplay uagb-ifb-desc \" data-identifier =\"10568\/141346\">Aberman, Noora-Lisa; Gelli, Aulo; Agandin, John; Kufoalor, Doreen; and Donovan, Jason. 2022.

Trends and potential drivers of stunting (height-for-age z-score < -2.0 SD) and anemia (hemoglobin < 11.0 g\/dL), and decomposition analysis of DHS data (2003 to 2014) were conducted. The quantitative evidence was triangulated with Net-Map analysis of nutrition stakeholder relationships and influence, desk review of policies and programs 2009\u20132019, and in-depth interviews with 25 stakeholders who provided additional insights to explain CS&A trends. Declines in stunting (29.6%) and anemia (14.1%) in children were observed at the national level, but with important subgroup variations. Decomposition analyses identified changes in the household, maternal, and child characteristics (including wealth, use of antenatal services, maternal education, and immunization) as correlates of anemia reduction. Stunting reduction was linked with changes in bed-net utilization, household wealth, and pregnancy care service utilization. Additionally, multiple policies and programs initiated\/implemented across multiple sectors were considered potentially relevant to CS&A reduction over time, including those focused on infant and young child feeding, water and sanitation, social protection, and health care access. Initiation\/strengthening of these interventions was stimulated by awareness creation and subsequently increased prioritization of stunting. However, program delivery was limited by deficits in government funding, perceived low priority of child anemia, low implementation capacity and coverage, and weak coherence across sectors. Reduced CS&A resulted from improved access to services implemented across multiple sectors, albeit limited by implementation scale and capacity. Further reduction in CS&A requires enhanced multi-sectorally coordinated actions and capacity.<\/p>\n<div class=\"dspaceDetails\">\n<p class=\"ifb-desc\"><strong>Year published<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>2022<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"dspaceDetails\">\n<p class=\"ifb-desc\"><strong>Authors<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Aryeetey, Richmond; Atuobi-Yeboah, Afua; Billings, Lucy; Nisbett, Nicholas; van den Bold, Mara; Tour\u00e9, Mariama<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"dspaceDetails\">\n<p><strong>Citation<\/strong><\/p>\n<p class=\"citationDisplay uagb-ifb-desc \" data-identifier =\"10568\/141374\">Aryeetey, Richmond; Atuobi-Yeboah, Afua; Billings, Lucy; Nisbett, Nicholas; van den Bold, Mara; and Tour\u00e9, Mariama. 2022.

The impact of devolving agriculture in Ghana<\/h4>\n<p class=\"ifResourcesAbstractA\">In recent years, many developing countries have devolved services to locally elected governments. Although this may strengthen downwards accountability to citizens, does devolution improve service provision? Ghana began devolving agriculture in 2012 to its Metropolitan, Municipal, and District Assemblies (MMDAs). Drawing on an original survey with 80 District Directors of Agriculture and 960 households, as well as district-level budget data and interviews with national and local government stakeholders, this paper shows that agricultural expenditures and services have been negatively affected by the transition. The imperative of electoral accountability encourages assembly members to de-prioritize agriculture in the budget process in favor of more visible goods and services. Budget allocations, however, do reflect the preferences of local citizens, a majority of whom value using elections to sanction their district politicians. The findings indicate that devolution may increase accountability but result in sectoral trade-offs in service provision, which may undermine national policy objectives.<\/p>\n<div class=\"dspaceDetails\">\n<p class=\"ifb-desc\"><strong>Year published<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>2022<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"dspaceDetails\">\n<p class=\"ifb-desc\"><strong>Authors<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Resnick, Danielle<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"dspaceDetails\">\n<p><strong>Citation<\/strong><\/p>\n<p class=\"citationDisplay uagb-ifb-desc \" data-identifier =\"10568\/141243\">Resnick, Danielle. 2022.

Using two waves of data (from 2009 and 2011) for 1773 households from eight countries in sub-Saharan Africa, we examined livelihood diversification and its drivers. We examined livelihood diversification by considering household involvement in three livelihood activities: crop, livestock, and non-farm. Results indicated that 40% of households conducted all three livelihood activities, but there was heterogeneity in diversity levels. We used a correlated random effects model to identify the factors that pushed or pulled households to diversify their activities. Access to non-agricultural credit was positively associated with livelihood diversity as it can catalyze involvement in non-farm activities. Drought had a negative effect on livelihood diversity. Area of crop land had a positive effect on the number of livelihood activities conducted. We found that 53% of households added or removed at least one livelihood activity between 2009 and 2011, and the addition of non-farm activities was the most common change.

Pond aquaculture, traditionally extensive and with limited external inputs, has been transforming over the same period. Farm profitability was wide-ranging, between \u221212.00 and 46.00 Ghanaian cedi (GHC) per square meter (m2), with an average of GHC 8.82\/m2 for farmers active in 2019. Despite wide variability in production and profits, the majority of farmers experienced positive profits\u2014on average, GHC 3.24 per kilogram of tilapia produced, or a 27% profit margin. Farmers who adopted good aquaculture practices and intensified their production have high productivity and positive profits. Nonetheless, the cost to produce 1 kg of tilapia in Ghana (roughly US$1.51 on average) was much higher than in other major tilapia-producing countries (averaging roughly US$0.78 to 1.29). COVID crisis further affected fish farmers: 54% experienced difficulties in accessing inputs, 56% experienced difficulties selling their fish, and farmgate fish prices went down in April\u2013August, although slowly bounced back by end of 2020. Improving the competitiveness and resilience of Ghanaian tilapia sector will require improved seed, increased adoption of good management practices, lower-cost quality feed, and enabling policies and regulations.<\/p>\n<div class=\"dspaceDetails\">\n<p class=\"ifb-desc\"><strong>Year published<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>2022<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"dspaceDetails\">\n<p class=\"ifb-desc\"><strong>Authors<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Ragasa, Catherine; Agyakwah, Seth K.; Asmah, Ruby; Mensah, Emmanuel; Amewu, Sena; Oyih, Matthew<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"dspaceDetails\">\n<p><strong>Citation<\/strong><\/p>\n<p class=\"citationDisplay uagb-ifb-desc \" data-identifier =\"10568\/128197\">Catherine Ragasa, Seth Agyakwah, Ruby Asmah, Emmanuel Mensah, Sena Amewu, Matthew Oyih.

Previous studies analysed effects of contracts on smallholder farmers\u2019 welfare, yet mostly without considering that different types of contractual relationships exist. Here, we examine associations between contract farming and farm household income in the oil palm sector of Ghana, explicitly differentiating between two types of contracts, namely simple marketing contracts and more comprehensive resource-providing contracts. Moreover, we look at different income sources to better understand how both contracts are linked to farmers\u2019 livelihood strategies. We use cross-sectional survey data and regression models. Issues of endogeneity are addressed through measuring farmers' willingness-to-participate in contracts and using this indicator as an additional covariate. Farmers with both types of contracts have significantly higher household incomes than farmers without a contract, yet with notable differences in terms of the income sources. Farmers with a marketing contract allocate more household labour to off-farm activities and thus have higher off-farm income. In contrast, farmers with a resource-providing contract have larger oil palm plantations and thus higher farm incomes. The findings suggest that the two contract types are associated with different livelihood strategies and that disaggregated analysis of different income sources is important to better understand possible underlying mechanisms.<\/p>\n<div class=\"dspaceDetails\">\n<p class=\"ifb-desc\"><strong>Year published<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>2022<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"dspaceDetails\">\n<p class=\"ifb-desc\"><strong>Authors<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Ruml, Anette; Ragasa, Catherine; Qaim, Matin<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"dspaceDetails\">\n<p><strong>Citation<\/strong><\/p>\n<p class=\"citationDisplay uagb-ifb-desc \" data-identifier =\"10568\/141171\">Ruml, Anette; Ragasa, Catherine; and Qaim, Matin. 2022.

Primary data was collected from 206 cocoa farmers drawn through a multi-stage sampling technique and analyzed using Propensity Score Matching. The study revealed that households who adopted artificial pollination had improvements in their productivity, income, poverty situation, and food security. It was also revealed that adopters increased their productivity by close to 15.34% on average, earned between GH\u20b5 2756.84 to GH\u20b5 11074.38 more on average in terms of income, reduced their poverty by an average of between 0.83% and 3.53%, and finally, improved their food security by approximately 3% compared to non-adopters.

We combined data from three sources: on-farm maize trials with 28 farmers from two seasons (2017 and 2018), on-farm sheep feeding trials where the pasture-based diets of weaner sheep were supplemented with stripped maize leaves fed in pens (conducted in 2019), and farm survey data from 117 households (conducted in 2014), seven of which were in the on-farm maize trials and owned sheep. We examined the trial data using linear mixed-effects models.<\/p>\n<p>RESULTS AND CONCLUSIONS<br \/>\nMaize leaf stripping had no significant effect on maize grain yield but had a significant positive effect on maize forage protein yield from leaf and stover. Offering maize leaves to weaner sheep had a significant positive effect on average daily liveweight gain, estimated marginal mean was 29.3 g with maize leaves and \u221210.9 g without maize leaves. For the maize-sheep systems of the seven households, non-inferential statistics suggested that on average maize leaf stripping reduced total maize grain production by 12% (range \u221246 to 38) and increased maize forage protein production from leaf and stover by 90% (range \u221216 to 298). Stripping the maize leaves from one hectare of land took an extra 34 h (range 27 to 42) of labour, which was counterbalanced by reduced labour time for grazing as sheep were fed the maize leaves in pens. For the 117 farmers, heterogeneity in maize areas planted and livestock numbers resulted in heterogeneous production and labour effects of maize leaf stripping. Farmers qualitatively described how maize leaf stripping released labour so children could spend more time at school rather than shepherding.<\/p>\n<p>SIGNIFICANCE<br \/>\nWe quantified in northern Ghana how maize leaf stripping altered crop and livestock productivity and associated trade-offs and synergies in the farm system, including labour. Changes in crop management often have implications beyond the crop's field and examining these implications can provide insights into the suitability of alternative farm management options.<\/p>\n<p>Graphical abstract<br \/>\nUnlabelled Image<br \/>\nDownload : Download high-res image (97KB)Download : Download full-size image<\/p>\n<div class=\"dspaceDetails\">\n<p class=\"ifb-desc\"><strong>Year published<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>2021<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"dspaceDetails\">\n<p class=\"ifb-desc\"><strong>Authors<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Komarek, Adam M.; Rahman, N.A.; Bandyopadhyay, A.; Kizito, Fred; Koo, Jawoo; Addah, W.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"dspaceDetails\">\n<p><strong>Citation<\/strong><\/p>\n<p class=\"citationDisplay uagb-ifb-desc \" data-identifier =\"10568\/114318\">Komarek, A.M., Rahman, N.A., Bandyopadhyay, A., Kizito, F., Koo, J. & Addah, W.

Response fatigue and rural livelihoods<\/h4>\n<p class=\"ifResourcesAbstractA\">Effective requires an accurate understanding of peoples\u2019 livelihoods activities. The data for this evidence is often generated via lengthy surveys where designated respondents provide information about their household members. This burden on respondents may lead to both losses and biases as they grow fatigued during the interview. We test these hypotheses with an experiment in rural Ghana where we randomize individual household members\u2019 position in the labor module. We find that moving a household member back by one position reduces their reported number of productive activities by 2.2% with average aggregate losses of 7.9%, or approximately one out of every twelve activities. Losses for women and youth are closer to one in nine. These biases result from both differential exposure to response fatigue (being positioned later in rosters) and differential vulnerability (greater impacts conditional on position). These results have important implications for data quality across many settings and topics.<\/p>\n<div class=\"dspaceDetails\">\n<p class=\"ifb-desc\"><strong>Year published<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>2021<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"dspaceDetails\">\n<p class=\"ifb-desc\"><strong>Authors<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Ambler, Kate; Herskowitz, Sylvan; Maredia, Mywish K.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"dspaceDetails\">\n<p><strong>Citation<\/strong><\/p>\n<p class=\"citationDisplay uagb-ifb-desc \" data-identifier =\"10568\/142682\">Ambler, Kate; Herskowitz, Sylvan; and Maredia, Mywish K. 2021.

What has been largely missing so far, and is in growing demand from countries, is tangible, practical and rigorous insights and lessons (from other countries or contexts) on how to translate this burgeoning political momentum into effective policies and programme implementation strategies \u2013 and ultimately impact on the ground. This new climate of learning from experience and evidence led to the launch in 2015 of the Stories of Change initiative. This series presents a second wave of studies from six countries (Tanzania, Rwanda, Vietnam, Ghana, Burkina Faso, Nigeria,) and three Indian states (Chhattisgarh, Gujarat, Tamil Nadu). These provide clear evidence combined with compelling narratives on what drives success in addressing all forms of malnutrition \u2013 evidence that is necessary for turning global momentum into actual results on the ground. This introductory Opinion is published with the first set of papers. It will be followed by a thorough synthesis of papers as a conclusion of the Series. We hope that the lessons embedded in these Stories of Change will inform and inspire the deliberations and outcomes of the UN Food Systems Summit and the second Nutrition for Growth Summit to be held this year, and the actions of those in the global food and nutrition system working for positive change.<\/p>\n<div class=\"dspaceDetails\">\n<p class=\"ifb-desc\"><strong>Year published<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>2021<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"dspaceDetails\">\n<p class=\"ifb-desc\"><strong>Authors<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Gillespie, Stuart; Harris, Jody; Nisbett, Nicholas; van den Bold, Mara<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"dspaceDetails\">\n<p><strong>Citation<\/strong><\/p>\n<p class=\"citationDisplay uagb-ifb-desc \" data-identifier =\"10568\/142577\">Gillespie, Stuart; Harris, Jody; Nisbett, Nicholas; and van den Bold, Mara. 2021.

Unfortunately, the flow of multiple ecosystem services from small reservoirs have been declining over several years due to lack of rehabilitation and poor management. Using selected multipurpose small reservoirs and available secondary and survey data, this paper applied an ecosystem services-based approach in the economic analysis of investment in rehabilitation of small reservoirs in northern Ghana. The findings reveal that private financial returns from irrigated crops have negative net present value (NPV) and an internal rate of return (IRR) lower than the cost of capital, implying a lack of economic incentive for private investors in their rehabilitation. However, accounting for the multiple ecosystem services such as livestock watering, fisheries, recreation services, domestic water, and climate regulation show positive NPV and high return on capital (IRR up to 43%). Policy choices would be biased against reservoir development if stakeholders consider only irrigation benefits. Based on the findings we recommend public investment in rehabilitation of multi-purpose small reservoirs to harness the multiple ecosystem services and community livelihoods.

However, many quality attributes are difficult to observe, making it difficult for farmers to learn how to improve the quality of their crops. Lack of premium pass-through and the cost of quality-enhancing inputs are additional barriers to improving output quality. In this paper, we examine the relative importance of each of these barriers to smallholder adoption of technologies for reducing aflatoxin, a common food safety hazard. We conduct a randomized controlled trial in northern Ghana over the course of two seasons to test how three interventions affect adoption of practices that reduce aflatoxin risk as well as aflatoxin levels in groundnuts: (1) training on aflatoxin and its prevention, (2) distribution of free drying sheets, and (3) a price premium for groundnuts that comply with aflatoxin regulations. We find that training farmers substantially improves post-harvest practices. Drying sheet distribution and, to a lesser extent, the premium price offer lead to further improvements, including crowding-in of non-subsidized practices. We find substantial corresponding decreases in aflatoxin levels from drying sheet provision in the study region with high background aflatoxin levels. Impacts are stronger for households with higher aflatoxin at baseline, more members, and young children.<\/p>\n<div class=\"dspaceDetails\">\n<p class=\"ifb-desc\"><strong>Year published<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>2021<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"dspaceDetails\">\n<p class=\"ifb-desc\"><strong>Authors<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Magnan, Nicholas; Hoffmann, Vivian; Garrido, Gissele; Kanyam, Daniel Akwasi; Opoku, Nelson<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"dspaceDetails\">\n<p><strong>Citation<\/strong><\/p>\n<p class=\"citationDisplay uagb-ifb-desc \" data-identifier =\"10568\/142685\">Magnan, Nicholas; Hoffmann, Vivian; Garrido, Gissele; Kanyam, Daniel Akwasi; and Opoku, Nelson. 2021.

Evidence from six countries in Africa and Asia<\/h4>\n<p class=\"ifResourcesAbstractA\">Although women\u2019s empowerment and gender equality are often linked with better maternal and child nutrition outcomes, recent systematic reviews find inconclusive evidence. This paper applies a comparable methodology to data on the Women\u2019s Empowerment in Agriculture Index (WEAI), an internationally-validated measure based on interviews of women and men within the same household, from six countries in Africa and Asia to identify which dimensions of women\u2019s empowerment are related to household-, woman-, and child-level dietary and nutrition outcomes. We examine relationships between women\u2019s empowerment and household-level dietary diversity; women\u2019s dietary diversity and BMI; and child-related outcomes, controlling for woman, child, and household characteristics. We also test for differential associations of women\u2019s empowerment with nutrition outcomes for boys and girls. We find few significant associations between the aggregate empowerment scores and nutritional outcomes. The women\u2019s empowerment score is positively associated only with child HAZ, while lower intrahousehold inequality is associated with a higher likelihood of exclusive breastfeeding and higher HAZ but with lower BMI. However, analysis of the subdomain indicators finds more significant associations, suggesting that tradeoffs exist among different dimensions of empowerment. Women\u2019s empowerment accounts for a small share of the variance in nutritional outcomes, with household wealth and country-level factors accounting for the largest share of the variation in household and women\u2019s dietary diversity. In contrast, most of the variation in child outcomes comes from child age. Improving nutritional outcomes requires addressing the underlying determinants of poor nutrition in addition to empowering women and improving gender equality.<\/p>\n<div class=\"dspaceDetails\">\n<p class=\"ifb-desc\"><strong>Year published<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>2021<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"dspaceDetails\">\n<p class=\"ifb-desc\"><strong>Authors<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Quisumbing, Agnes R.; Sproule, Kathryn; Martinez, Elena M.; Malapit, Hazel J.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"dspaceDetails\">\n<p><strong>Citation<\/strong><\/p>\n<p class=\"citationDisplay uagb-ifb-desc \" data-identifier =\"10568\/142555\">Quisumbing, Agnes R.; Sproule, Kathryn; Martinez, Elena M.; and Malapit, Hazel Jean L. 2021.

The socioeconomic costs of these blunt measures are expected to be high, especially in sub-Saharan Africa where many live hand-to-mouth and lack social safety nets. Social Accounting Matrix multiplier model results show that Ghana\u2019s urban lockdown, although in force for only three weeks in April 2020, has likely caused GDP to fall by 27.9% during that period, while an additional 3.8 million Ghanaians temporarily became poor. Compared to the government\u2019s revised GDP growth rate of 1.5% for 2020, the model predicts a contraction of 0.6 to 6.3% for 2020, depending on the speed of the recovery.

A field experiment was conducted to assess the effect of the wetting front detector, FP and IRCWR combined with six fertilizer rates. We also interviewed 50 farmers to understand their perception about the use and associated concerns with the wetting front detector. Analysis of variance and partial budget economic analysis were performed. The results show that the wetting front detector saved 16% of irrigation water compared to FP, which in turn led to 16% labour saving to irrigate pepper as compared to FP. Yield and water productivity of pepper were not significantly affected by the irrigation regimes. Regardless of irrigation regimes, yield of pepper was significantly influenced by fertilizer treatment in both years. Although the highest fresh fruit yield of pepper (8.6 t ha-1 ) was recorded from Fortifer granules, the highest marginal rate of return was obtained from application of inorganic fertilizer including 173 N, 36 P,18 K ha \u00b9. The majority of farmers perceived the wetting front detector as low risk and compatible to use. The result also suggests that farmers are interested in buying and adopting the tool for future use.<\/p>\n<div class=\"dspaceDetails\">\n<p class=\"ifb-desc\"><strong>Year published<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>2020<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"dspaceDetails\">\n<p class=\"ifb-desc\"><strong>Authors<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Adimassu, Zenebe; Balana, Bedru B.; Appoh, Richard K.; Nartey, Eric<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"dspaceDetails\">\n<p><strong>Citation<\/strong><\/p>\n<p class=\"citationDisplay uagb-ifb-desc \" data-identifier =\"10568\/108362\">Adimassu, Zenebe; Balana, B.

We employed the two-stage approach to estimate efficiency scores under constant returns to scale (CRS) and variable returns to scale (VRS) specifications. First, using a linear programming method, efficiency scores of the irrigated vegetable farmers were measured using the data envelopment analysis approach. The results show that about 27.3 per cent of the farmers currently operate on the production possibility frontier and are technically efficient, while 3.6 per cent were found to be both economically and allocatively efficient. The mean TE score for CRS was 50.6 per cent, compared with 78.1 per cent under the VRS. A Tobit regression at the second-stage analysis revealed that gender, experience, health and credit utilization have significant effects on TE. These results are valuable for stakeholders interested in promoting efficiency in smallholder irrigated production.JEL Classification: C14, C61, D24, D61, Q12<\/p>\n<div class=\"dspaceDetails\">\n<p class=\"ifb-desc\"><strong>Year published<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>2020<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"dspaceDetails\">\n<p class=\"ifb-desc\"><strong>Authors<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Adams, Abdulai; Balana, Bedru; Lefore, Nicole<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"dspaceDetails\">\n<p><strong>Citation<\/strong><\/p>\n<p class=\"citationDisplay uagb-ifb-desc \" data-identifier =\"10568\/142782\">Adams, Abdulai; Balana, Bedru; and Lefore, Nicole. 2020.

While the literature has often characterized mechanical technologies as being complementary to land, knowledge gaps exist with regard to the process of adoption of mechanization by smallholders for whom the scope for exploiting its complementarity with land is limited. We test a hypothesis that yield-enhancing biological technologies\u2014which potentially raise total factor productivity and returns to more intensive farm-power use\u2014are important drivers of the adoption of agricultural mechanization among smallholders. To enhance the external validity of evidence, we empirically analyze this hypothesis by applying the same methodologies in two countries, lowland (Terai) Nepal and Ghana. We employ nationally representative, repeated, cross-sectional data from both countries, as well as unique tractor-use data from Ghana; we also employ multidimensional indicators of agroclimatic similarity in the respective plant breeding locations. We show that in both lowland Nepal and Ghana, the adoption of tractors and agricultural equipment has been induced by yield-enhancing biological technologies, particularly improved varieties and high-yielding production systems, when these biological technologies are instrumented by agroclimatic similarity to plant breeding locations, which is measured accounting for the multidimensional characteristics of agroclimatic conditions, and thus proxies spillover potentials of the public sector developed biological technologies. In general, these effects are particularly strong among smaller farms, and the effect holds for the adoption of mechanization both at extensive margins (whether to adopt) and at intensive margins (how much to adopt). In Ghana, partly due to improved efficiency in supply-side factors of mechanization, these linkages have strengthened in the 2010s. The results suggest that in both countries, mechanization support strategies for smallholders can potentially improve their targeting by utilizing the information of agroclimatic similarity with plant breeding locations. In Ghana, further public investments in plant-breeding system in strategic locations may broadly enhance smallholders' demand for mechanization. In lowland Nepal where tractor adoptions have grown fairly high, it is now important to more carefully evaluate the trade-off between smallholder-based growth strategies and other strategies, for example, promoting scale-expansions of farming, which also involves mechanization.<\/p>\n<div class=\"dspaceDetails\">\n<p class=\"ifb-desc\"><strong>Year published<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>2020<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"dspaceDetails\">\n<p class=\"ifb-desc\"><strong>Authors<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Takeshima, Hiroyuki; Liu, Yanyan<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"dspaceDetails\">\n<p><strong>Citation<\/strong><\/p>\n<p class=\"citationDisplay uagb-ifb-desc \" data-identifier =\"10568\/142311\">Takeshima, Hiroyuki; and Liu, Yanyan. 2020.

There is also a paucity of data on the sex-specific correlates of malnutrition and hypertension for adolescents. Hence, this study aimed to assess the association between malnutrition, pre-hypertension\/hypertension (PHH) and sex among adolescents. The study also aimed to determine and contrast the factors associated with these risks in Ghana. We analysed data of non-pregnant adolescent girls (n = 857) and adolescent boys (n = 870) aged 15\u201319 years from the 2014 Ghana Demographic and Health Survey (DHS). We modelled the prevalence risk ratio (PRR) of malnutrition and PHH using Cox proportional hazard models. Compared to adolescent girls, boys were more than twice likely to be stunted (PRR = 2.58, 95% C.I (1.77, 3.76)) and underweight (PRR = 2.67, 95% C.I (1.41, 5.09)) but less likely to be overweight\/obese (PRR = 0.85, 95% C.I (0.08, 0.29)). Boys were also about twice likely to have PHH (PRR = 1.96, 95% C.I (1.47, 2.59)) compared to their female peers. Girls were more at risk of the detrimental effects of poor education on stunting and PHH. Empowerment index while protective of stunting for girls (PRR = 0.82, 95% C.I (0.67, 0.99)) also increased their risk of overweight\/obesity (PRR = 1.31, 95% C.I (1.02, 1.68)). A higher household wealth index (HWI) increased the risk of overweight\/obesity for adolescent girls but was protective of stunting and PHH for adolescent boys. Improvement in household water, hygiene, and sanitation (WASH) reduced the risk of stunting by 15% for adolescent boys. Overall, our findings suggest a double-burden of malnutrition with an up-coming non-communicable disease burden for adolescents in Ghana. Our findings may also be highlighting the need to target adolescent boys alongside girls in nutrition and health intervention programmes.<\/p>\n<div class=\"dspaceDetails\">\n<p class=\"ifb-desc\"><strong>Year published<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>2020<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"dspaceDetails\">\n<p class=\"ifb-desc\"><strong>Authors<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Azupogo, Fusta; Abizari, Abdul-Razak; Aurino, Elisabetta; Gelli, Aulo; Osendarp, Saskia J.

How this rapid urban transition is affecting household-level urban food security, and reverberating into broader food systems, is poorly understood. To fill this gap, we use data from a 2017 survey (n = 668) of low- and middle-income residents of Accra, Ghana, to characterize and compare the predictors of household-level food security using three established metrics: the Household Food Insecurity Access Scale (HFIAS); the Household Food Insecurity Access Prevalence (HFIAP); and the Food Consumption Score (FCS). According to HFIAP, 70% of sampled households are food insecure, but only 2% fall below acceptable thresholds measured by FCS. Only one household reported sourcing food from modern supermarkets and fewer than 3% produce food for consumption through gardening, farming, or fishing. Instead, households rely on purchased food from traditional markets, local stalls and kiosks, and street hawkers. Results from a suite of general linear models show that household assets, education, and demographic characteristics are significantly associated with food security outcomes according to HFIAS and HFIAP. The poor correlation and weak model agreement between dietary recall such as FCS, and experience-based food security metrics, like HFIAS and HFIAP, highlight limitations of employing historically rural-centric food security measurement approaches within the urban context. Given that Sub-Saharan Africa\u2019s future is urban, our results add empirical evidence in support of the growing chorus of scholars advocating for comprehensive urban-oriented food security research and policy agendas across Sub-Saharan Africa.<\/p>\n<div class=\"dspaceDetails\">\n<p class=\"ifb-desc\"><strong>Year published<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>2020<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"dspaceDetails\">\n<p class=\"ifb-desc\"><strong>Authors<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Tuholske, Cascade; Andam, Kwaw S.; Blekking, Jordan; Evans, Tom; Caylor, Kelly<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"dspaceDetails\">\n<p><strong>Citation<\/strong><\/p>\n<p class=\"citationDisplay uagb-ifb-desc \" data-identifier =\"10568\/142583\">Tuholske, Cascade; Andam, Kwaw S.; Blekking, Jordan; Evans, Tom; and Caylor, Kelly. 2020.

Pursuing agricultural development for smallholder farmers in marginal areas of Ghana<\/h4>\n<p class=\"ifResourcesAbstractA\">Many smallholder farmers in developing countries grow multiple crop species on their farms, maintaining de facto crop diversity. Rarely do agricultural development strategies consider this crop diversity as an entry point for fostering agricultural innovation. This paper presents a case study, from an agricultural research-for-development project in northern Ghana, which examines the relationship between crop diversity and self-consumption of food crops, and cash income from crops sold by smallholder farmers in the target areas. By testing the presence and direction of these relationships, it is possible to assess whether smallholder farmers may benefit more from a diversification or a specialization agricultural development strategy for improving their livelihoods. Based on a household survey of 637 randomly selected households, we calculated crop diversity as well as its contribution to self-consumption (measured as imputed monetary value) and to cash income for each household. With these data we estimated a system of three simultaneous equations. Results show that households maintained high levels of crop diversity: up to eight crops grown, with an-average of 3.2 per household, and with less than 5% having a null or very low level of crop diversity. The value of crop species used for self-consumption was on average 55% higher than that of crop sales. Regression results show that crop diversity is positively associated with self-consumption of food crops, and cash income from crops sold. This finding suggests that increasing crop diversity opens market opportunities for households, while still contributing to self-consumption. Given these findings, crop diversification seems to be more beneficial to these farmers than specialization. For these diversified farmers, or others in similar contexts, interventions that assess and build on their de facto crop diversity are probably more likely to be successful.<\/p>\n<div class=\"dspaceDetails\">\n<p class=\"ifb-desc\"><strong>Year published<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>2020<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"dspaceDetails\">\n<p class=\"ifb-desc\"><strong>Authors<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Bellon, M.R.; Kotu, Bekele Hundie; Azzarri, Carlo; Caracciolo, Francesco<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"dspaceDetails\">\n<p><strong>Citation<\/strong><\/p>\n<p class=\"citationDisplay uagb-ifb-desc \" data-identifier =\"10568\/103784\">Bellon, M.R., Kotu, B.H., Azzarri, C. & Caracciolo, F.

Impacts on functioning, health and well-being and key coping behaviours, both positive and negative, were identified. The findings together inform a more nuanced view of stress within these contexts.<\/p>\n<p>Conclusion: Although participants were asked to provide general reflections about stress in their community, the salience of poverty-related stressors was ubiquitously reflected in respondents\u2019 responses. Poverty-related stressors affect development, well-being and gender-based violence. Future research should focus on interventions to alleviate poverty-related stress to achieve the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals.<\/p>\n<div class=\"dspaceDetails\">\n<p class=\"ifb-desc\"><strong>Year published<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>2019<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"dspaceDetails\">\n<p class=\"ifb-desc\"><strong>Authors<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Hall, Brian J.; Garabiles, Melissa R.; de Hoop, Jacobus; Pereira, Audrey; Prencipe, Leah; Palermo, Tia<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"dspaceDetails\">\n<p><strong>Citation<\/strong><\/p>\n<p class=\"citationDisplay uagb-ifb-desc \" data-identifier =\"10568\/145541\">Hall, Brian J.; Garabiles, Melissa R.; de Hoop, Jacobus; Pereira, Audrey; Prencipe, Leah; and Palermo, Tia. 2019.

However, the linkages between the duration and severity of precipitation shocks and their effects on child nutrition and household food security metrics remain underexplored. In this study, we used Feed the Future datasets from Ghana and Bangladesh to examine the impact of precipitation extremes on nutrition, measured by children\u2019s height-for-age and weight-for-height Z-scores, and food security, measured by the Household Hunger Scale.

We focus on an emerging labor\u2010saving trend in Ghana, use of motorized tricycles (MTs), which provide an affordable alternative to manually transferring crops from plots to homestead. A household survey collected in 2017 in northern Ghana is used to shed light on how the time savings made available by using MTs may be converted into activities that enhance agricultural productivity and\/or diversify the household away from agriculture. Detailed information collected on the agricultural production and agro\u2010processing behavior of 1,400 households allows us to examine the above transformative channels. Ordinary least squares and instrumental variable regressions are applied to quantify the effect of MTs on related outcomes. We find households are able to diversify their farming activities into selling processed agricultural goods with the time savings provided through MT adoption. Policies aimed to foster the diffusion of MTs elsewhere in Ghana may expedite structural change and, hence, economic growth.<\/p>\n<div class=\"dspaceDetails\">\n<p class=\"ifb-desc\"><strong>Year published<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>2019<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"dspaceDetails\">\n<p class=\"ifb-desc\"><strong>Authors<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Mueller, Valerie; Masias, Ian; Vallury, Sechindra<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"dspaceDetails\">\n<p><strong>Citation<\/strong><\/p>\n<p class=\"citationDisplay uagb-ifb-desc \" data-identifier =\"10568\/147332\">Mueller, Valerie; Masias, Ian; and Vallury, Sechindra.

This article uses a media events database to examine crackdowns of informal vendors in Accra, Dakar, and Lusaka from 2000 to 2016. During this period, Accra demonstrated consistently high levels of violence towards vendors, while violence increased in Dakar and decreased in Lusaka. The article argues that these trends are driven by differences in political decentralization for municipal authorities, variations in their administrative mandates over vending, and the degree of influence vendors hold as an electoral constituency. Through a structured comparison of the governance of informal vendors across multiple cities, the article demonstrates how state violence manifests through everyday battles over access to public space.<\/p>\n<div class=\"dspaceDetails\">\n<p class=\"ifb-desc\"><strong>Year published<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>2019<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"dspaceDetails\">\n<p class=\"ifb-desc\"><strong>Authors<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Resnick, Danielle<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"dspaceDetails\">\n<p><strong>Citation<\/strong><\/p>\n<p class=\"citationDisplay uagb-ifb-desc \" data-identifier =\"10568\/145940\">Resnick, Danielle.

Food grown during the rainy season is often insufficient to meet household food needs, with some households experiencing severe food insecurity for up to five months in a year. Flood recession agriculture (FRA) \u2013 an agricultural practice that relies on residual soil moisture and nutrients left by receding flood water \u2013 is ordinarily practiced by farmers along the floodplains of the White Volta River in northern Ghana under low-input low-output conditions. Opportunities abound to promote highly productive FRA as a means of extending the growing season beyond the short rainy season (from May to September) into the dry season and thereby increase household income and food security of smallholder farmers. This study uses an optimization modelling approach to explore this potential by analyzing the crop mix and agricultural water management options that will maximize household income and enhance food security. Results indicate that growing cowpea, groundnut and melon under residual-moisture based FRA and high value crops (onion, pepper, and tomato) under supplementary irrigation FRA maximize household income and food security. The cash income from the sale of FRA crops was sufficient to purchase food items that ensure consumption smoothing during the food-insecure months. The study concludes that the full potential of FRA will be realized through a careful selection of crop mixtures and by enhancing access of farmers to improved seeds, integrated pest management and credit and mainstreaming FRA through targeted policy interventions and institutional support.<\/p>\n<div class=\"dspaceDetails\">\n<p class=\"ifb-desc\"><strong>Year published<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>2019<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"dspaceDetails\">\n<p class=\"ifb-desc\"><strong>Authors<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Balana, Bedru B.; Sanfo, S.; Barbier, B.; Williams, Timothy; Kolavalli, S.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"dspaceDetails\">\n<p><strong>Citation<\/strong><\/p>\n<p class=\"citationDisplay uagb-ifb-desc \" data-identifier =\"10568\/101917\">Balana, Bedru B.; Sanfo, S.; Barbier, B.; Williams, Timothy; Kolavalli, S. 2019.

This paper examines patterns of rural livelihoods and poverty in Ghana based on the proximity of rural areas to cities of different sizes. The paper finds that many rural households in the areas close to cities have shifted their primary employment from agriculture to nonagriculture, especially in the more urbanized South. This trend strengthens over time. This appears to take place in contrast to the traditional model of rural livelihood diversification, with some family members working in agriculture and some in nonagriculture. Although cities have created market demand for agriculture, proximity to cities does not seem to influence agricultural intensification in terms of modern input use, possibly due to agricultural markets being relatively integrated in Ghana.

We document a significant expansion of crop land and settlements (productive use) at the expense of natural vegetation cover. Land areas converted from natural cover to productive use have higher maize yield (0.17 tons per hectare) and harvest value (1,021 Ghanaian Cedi) compared with those converted from bare soil to productive cover. Moreover, areas that were covered by shrubs or savannah in 1994 were more productive in 2014 relative to bare soils in 1994. Although our data do not allow us to establish causality, the evidence suggests the importance of past land-cover conditions in affecting current agricultural performance, especially in resource-stricken settings where conservation and restoration practices are not as common.<\/p>\n<div class=\"dspaceDetails\">\n<p class=\"ifb-desc\"><strong>Year published<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>2019<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"dspaceDetails\">\n<p class=\"ifb-desc\"><strong>Authors<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Haile, Beliyou; Signorelli, Sara; Azzarri, Carlo; Guo, Zhe<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"dspaceDetails\">\n<p><strong>Citation<\/strong><\/p>\n<p class=\"citationDisplay uagb-ifb-desc \" data-identifier =\"10568\/146754\">Haile, Beliyou; Signorelli, Sara; Azzarri, Carlo; and Guo, Zhe. 2019.

We analysed secondary data from the baseline of an impact evaluation of the Ghana School Feeding Programme to determine the severity of anaemia and contextual factors associated with anaemia and Hb status among rural SAC (6\u20139 years; n = 323) and adolescents (10\u201317 years; n = 319) in Ghana. We used regression models with variable selection based on backward elimination in our analyses. The mean Hb was 113.8 \u00b1 13.1 g\/L, and the overall prevalence of anaemia was 52.3%, being 55.1% and 49.5% among SAC and adolescents, respectively. We identified child's age (\u03b2 = 2.21, P < 0.001); farm diversity score (\u03b2 = 0.59, P = 0.036); and agro\u2010ecological zone (P trend <0.001) as the main predictors of Hb of SAC. Household asset index (P trend = 0.042) and agro\u2010ecological zone (P trend <0.001) were predictors of Hb in adolescents. Agro\u2010ecological zone and age were predictors of anaemia, but the effect of age was only significant for girls and not boys (prevalence odds ratio [POR] = 1.35, 95% CI [1.04, 1.76] vs. POR = 1.14, 95% CI [0.88, 1.46]). SAC in households with maize stock were less likely to be anaemic (POR = 0.55, 95% CI [0.32, 0.97]). Household dietary diversity score (\u03b2 = 0.59, P = 0.033) was associated with Hb status for the full sample only. Anaemia is a severe public health problem among SAC and adolescents in rural Ghana irrespective of sex. Farm diversity score, availability of maize stock in the household, household asset index, and agro\u2010ecological zone were the main predictors of Hb and anaemia among the rural SAC and adolescents.<\/p>\n<div class=\"dspaceDetails\">\n<p class=\"ifb-desc\"><strong>Year published<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>2019<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"dspaceDetails\">\n<p class=\"ifb-desc\"><strong>Authors<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Azupogo, Fusta; Aurino, Elisabetta; Gelli, Aulo; Bosompem, Kwabena M.; Ayi, Irene; Osendarp, Saskia J.

Confronting six common perceptions about unconditional cash transfers as a poverty reduction strategy in Africa<\/h4>\n<p class=\"ifResourcesAbstractA\">This paper summarizes evidence on six perceptions associated with cash transfer programming, using eight rigorous evaluations conducted on large-scale government unconditional cash transfers in sub-Saharan Africa under the Transfer Project. Specifically, it investigates if transfers: 1) induce higher spending on alcohol or tobacco; 2) are fully consumed (rather than invested); 3) create dependency (reduce participation in productive activities); 4) increase fertility; 5) lead to negative community-level economic impacts (including price distortion and inflation); and 6) are fiscally unsustainable. The paper presents evidence refuting each claim, leading to the conclusion that these perceptions\u2014insofar as they are utilized in policy debates\u2014undercut potential improvements in well-being and livelihood strengthening among the poor, which these programs can bring about in sub-Saharan Africa, and globally. It concludes by underscoring outstanding research gaps and policy implications for the continued expansion of unconditional cash transfers in the region and beyond.<\/p>\n<div class=\"dspaceDetails\">\n<p class=\"ifb-desc\"><strong>Year published<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>2018<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"dspaceDetails\">\n<p class=\"ifb-desc\"><strong>Authors<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Handa, Sudhanshu; Daidone, Silvio; Peterman, Amber; Davis, Benjamin; Pereira, Audrey; Palermo, Tia; Yablonski, Jennifer<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"dspaceDetails\">\n<p><strong>Citation<\/strong><\/p>\n<p class=\"citationDisplay uagb-ifb-desc \" data-identifier =\"10568\/145460\">Handa, Sudhanshu; Daidone, Silvio; Peterman, Amber; Davis, Benjamin; Pereira, Audrey; Palermo, Tia; and Yablonski, Jennifer. 2018.

Is some of this conventional wisdom simply maintained over time, or has it always been inaccurate? We use four rounds of cross\u2010sectional data from Ghana to assess some of the facts and to evaluate whether gender patterns have changed over time. We focus on five main themes: land, cropping patterns, market participation, agricultural inputs, and employment. We add to the literature by showing new facts and evidence for more than 20 years. Results show that stylized facts do not always hold, and that some of these \u201cfacts\u201d change over time. We find significant variation in the extent of (changes in) gender discrepancies across themes, different agro\u2010ecological zones, ethnicities, household types, and women's role in the household.<\/p>\n<div class=\"dspaceDetails\">\n<p class=\"ifb-desc\"><strong>Year published<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>2018<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"dspaceDetails\">\n<p class=\"ifb-desc\"><strong>Authors<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Lambrecht, Isabel; Schuster, Monica; Asare Samwini, Sarah; Pelleriaux, Laura<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"dspaceDetails\">\n<p><strong>Citation<\/strong><\/p>\n<p class=\"citationDisplay uagb-ifb-desc \" data-identifier =\"10568\/146564\">Lambrecht, Isabel; Schuster, Monica; Asare Samwini, Sarah; and Pelleriaux, Laura. 2018.

Yet a gender gap in technology adoption remains for many agricultural technologies, even for those that are promoted for women. This paper complements the literature on gender and technology adoption, which largely focuses on reasons for low rates of female technology adoption, by shifting attention to what happens within a household after it adopts a technology. Understanding the expected benefits and costs of adoption, from the perspective of women users in households with adult males, can help explain observed technology adoption rates and why technology adoption is often not sustained in the longer term. Drawing on qualitative data from Ethiopia, Ghana, and Tanzania, this paper develops a framework for examining the intrahousehold distribution of benefits from technology adoption, focusing on small-scale irrigation technologies. The framework contributes to the conceptual and empirical exploration of joint control over technology by men and women in the same household. Efforts to promote technology adoption for agricultural development and women\u2019s empowerment would benefit from an understanding of intrahousehold control over technology to avoid interpreting technology adoption as an end in and of itself.<\/p>\n<div class=\"dspaceDetails\">\n<p class=\"ifb-desc\"><strong>Year published<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>2018<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"dspaceDetails\">\n<p class=\"ifb-desc\"><strong>Authors<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Theis, Sophie; Lefore, Nicole; Meinzen-Dick, Ruth S.; Bryan, Elizabeth<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"dspaceDetails\">\n<p><strong>Citation<\/strong><\/p>\n<p class=\"citationDisplay uagb-ifb-desc \" data-identifier =\"10568\/109026\">Theis, S.; Lefore, Nicole; Meinzen-Dick, R.; Bryan, E. 2018.

Some African countries, such as Ghana, managed to utilize rapid growth for poverty reduction and improving food and nutrition security. Transformation of agriculture appears to have played an important role in this context. However, the linkages between agricultural transformation and food and nutrition security at the household level are not well understood. This article examines the linkage between farm production diversity and household dietary diversity in rural Ghana and how that linkage changed between 2005\u201306 and 2012\u201313. The empirical analysis employs a regression model that controls for region- and time-fixed effects. The estimation results suggest that farm production diversification, as well as household income growth, continues to be strongly associated with increased household dietary diversity.

Used primarily in psychology, the RAI measures the extent to which an individual\u2019s actions are intrinsically or extrinsically motivated, where higher scores indicate greater autonomy. On aggregate, we \ufb01nd differences between men and women, and across countries, in the signi\ufb01cance of association between the individual\u2019s level of participation in decision-making and autonomy. In addition, we \ufb01nd heterogeneity in the strength of this association, depending on the domain (e.g., productive versus personal decisions) and whether partners agree on who normally makes decisions. These \ufb01ndings imply that details related to context and measurement matter for understanding individual decision-making power. We argue that all research using information on decision-making should include a careful analysis of men\u2019s and women\u2019s perceptions of decision making within the household, which may be useful for calibrating indicators to suit spicific contexts<\/p>\n<div class=\"dspaceDetails\">\n<p class=\"ifb-desc\"><strong>Year published<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>2018<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"dspaceDetails\">\n<p class=\"ifb-desc\"><strong>Authors<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Seymour, Greg; Peterman, Amber<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"dspaceDetails\">\n<p><strong>Citation<\/strong><\/p>\n<p class=\"citationDisplay uagb-ifb-desc \" data-identifier =\"10568\/146650\">Seymour, Gregory; and Peterman, Amber. 2018.

Evidence from Bangladesh, Nepal, Cambodia, Ghana, and Mozambique<\/h4>\n<p class=\"ifResourcesAbstractA\">There are concerns that increasing women\u2019s engagement in agriculture could negatively affect nutrition by limiting the time available for nutrition-improving reproductive work. However, very few empirical studies provide evidence to support these concerns. This paper examines the relationship between women\u2019s time spent in domestic work and agriculture and women\u2019s and children\u2019s dietary diversity. Using data from Bangladesh, Nepal, Cambodia, Ghana, and Mozambique, we find that women\u2019s domestic work and cooking time are positively correlated with more diverse diets. We also find differential effects depending on asset poverty status. In Mozambique, working long hours in agriculture is negatively associated with women\u2019s dietary diversity score in nonpoor women, but is positively associated with poor women\u2019s dietary diversity and poor children\u2019s minimum acceptable diet. This suggests that agriculture as a source of food and income is particularly important for the asset poor. Our results reveal that women\u2019s time allocation and nutrition responses to agricultural interventions are likely to vary by socioeconomic status and local context.<\/p>\n<div class=\"dspaceDetails\">\n<p class=\"ifb-desc\"><strong>Year published<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>2018<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"dspaceDetails\">\n<p class=\"ifb-desc\"><strong>Authors<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Komatsu, Hitomi; Malapit, Hazel J.; Theis, Sophie<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"dspaceDetails\">\n<p><strong>Citation<\/strong><\/p>\n<p class=\"citationDisplay uagb-ifb-desc \" data-identifier =\"10568\/146803\">Komatsu, Hitomi; Malapit, Hazel J.; and Theis, Sophie.

Using data from retail inventories of packaged products carried out in eight cities in 2015 and 2016, we find that the interplay of urbanization, imports and domestic processing and packaging has led to some surprising outcomes. Imports are dominant, especially for milled rice and tomato paste, and the shares are higher in smaller cities than in Accra. Imported products are more prevalent in traditional retail outlets than in modern retail outlets. Moreover, imported products come mainly from East Asia; excluding South Africa, which accounts for 6% of imports, less than 3% of imported products were from other African countries.<\/p>\n<div class=\"dspaceDetails\">\n<p class=\"ifb-desc\"><strong>Year published<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>2018<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"dspaceDetails\">\n<p class=\"ifb-desc\"><strong>Authors<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Andam, Kwaw S.; Tschirley, David; Asante, Seth; Al-Hassan, Ramatu M.; Diao, Xinshen<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"dspaceDetails\">\n<p><strong>Citation<\/strong><\/p>\n<p class=\"citationDisplay uagb-ifb-desc \" data-identifier =\"10568\/145979\">Andam, Kwaw S.; Tschirley, David; Asante, Seth; Al-Hassan, Ramatu M.; and Diao, Xinshen. 2018.

It assesses the profitability and potential impact of these CF schemes, utilizing a unique plot-level dataset that covers two periods of data and two maize plots (scheme and non-scheme) per household, and employing matching techniques and an instrumental variable approach to address selection bias and unobserved heterogeneity across farmers. These are complemented by a community-level survey, in-depth interviews with scheme operators, and a series of key informant interviews. Results show that these schemes led to improved technology adoption and yield increases. In addition, a subset of maize farmers with high yield improvements due to CF participation have high profits. Maize CF schemes also enabled market coordination and consistent supply of quality maize to downstream industries. However, on average, the impact of the CF schemes on profitability is negative, even when input diversion is accounted for. Yield increases are not high enough to compensate for higher input requirements and the cost of capital under the schemes. Despite higher yields, the costs to produce one metric tonne of maize under CF schemes are higher than on maize farms without CF schemes, twice that of several countries in Africa, and more than seven times higher than that of major maize-exporting countries (the United States, Brazil, and Argentina).

Home-grown school feeding programs present a promising entry point for such interventions, through the delivery of nutritious menus and meals.To describe the adaptation of the School Meals Planner Package to the programmatic and environmental reality in Ghana during the 2014 to 2015 school year.Guided by a conceptual framework highlighting key considerations and trade-offs in menu design, an open-source software was developed that could be easily understood by program implementers. Readily available containers from markets were calibrated into \u201chandy measures\u201d to support the provision of adequate quantities of food indicated by menus. Schools and communities were sensitized to the benefits of locally sourced, nutrient-rich diets. A behavior change communication campaign including posters and songs promoting healthy diets was designed and disseminated in schools and communities.The School Meals Planner Package was introduced in 42 districts in Ghana, reaching more than 320 000 children. Monitoring reports and feedback on its use were positive, demonstrating how the tool can be used by planners and implementers alike to deliver nutritious, locally-sourced meals to schoolchildren. The value of the tool has been recognized at the highest levels by Ghana\u2019s government who have adopted it as official policy.The School Meals Planner Package supported the design of nutritious, locally sourced menus for the school feeding program in Ghana. The tool can be similarly adapted for other countries to meet context-specific needs.<\/p>\n<div class=\"dspaceDetails\">\n<p class=\"ifb-desc\"><strong>Year published<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>2016<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"dspaceDetails\">\n<p class=\"ifb-desc\"><strong>Authors<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Fernandes, Meenakshi; Galloway, Rae; Gelli, Aulo; Mumuni, Daniel; Hamdani, Salha; Kiamba, Josephine; Quarshie, Kate; Bhatia, Rita; Aurino, Elisabetta; Peel, Francis; Drake, Lesley<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"dspaceDetails\">\n<p><strong>Citation<\/strong><\/p>\n<p class=\"citationDisplay uagb-ifb-desc \" data-identifier =\"10568\/147555\">Fernandes, Meenakshi; Galloway, Rae; Gelli, Aulo; Mumuni, Daniel; Hamdani, Salha; Kiamba, Josephine; Quarshie, Kate; Bhatia, Rita; Aurino, Elisabetta; Peel, Francis; and Drake, Lesley. 2016.

There is limited rigorous evidence, however, that this is the case in practice. This evaluation will examine explicitly, and from a holistic perspective, the simultaneous impact of a national school meals programme on micronutrient status, alongside outcomes in nutrition, education and agriculture domains. The 3-year study involves a cluster-randomised control trial designed around the scale-up of the national school feeding programme, including 116 primary schools in 58 districts in Ghana. The randomly assigned interventions are: 1) a school feeding programme group, including schools and communities where the standard government programme is implemented; 2) \u2018home-grown\u2019 school feeding, including schools and communities where the standard programme is implemented alongside an innovative pilot project aimed at enhancing nutrition and agriculture; and 3) a control group, including schools and households from communities where the intervention will be delayed by at least 3 years, preferably without informing schools and households. Primary outcomes include child health and nutritional status, school participation and learning, and smallholder farmer income. Intermediate outcomes along the agriculture and nutrition pathways will also be measured. The evaluation will follow a mixed-method approach, including child-, household-, school- and community-level surveys as well as focus group discussions with project stakeholders. The baseline survey was completed in August 2013 and the endline survey is planned for November 2015. The tests of balance show significant differences in the means of a number of outcome and control variables across the intervention groups. Important differences across groups include marketed surplus, livestock income, per capita food consumption and intake, school attendance, and anthropometric status in the 2\u20135 and 5\u201315 years age groups. In addition, approximately 19 % of children in the target age group received some form of free school meals at baseline. Designing and implementing the evaluation of complex interventions is in itself a complex undertaking, involving a multi-disciplinary research team working in close collaboration with programme- and policy-level stakeholders. Managing the complexity from an analytical and operational perspective is an important challenge. The analysis of the baseline data indicates that the random allocation process did not achieve statistically comparable treatment groups. Differences in outcomes and control variables across groups will be controlled for when estimating treatment effects.

We use a computable general equilibrium model, informed by detailed sector studies, to estimate the economy-wide impacts of climate change under four climate projections. Climate change is found to always reduce national welfare, with poor and urban households and the northern Savannah zone being the worst affected. However, there is wide variation across scenarios in the size of climate impacts and in the relative importance of sectoral impact channels, thus underscoring the need for multi-sector approaches that account for climate uncertainty. Our analysis of adaptation options indicates that investing in agricultural research and extension, and improved road surfaces, are potentially cost-effective means of mitigating most of the damages from climate change in Ghana.<\/p>\n<div class=\"dspaceDetails\">\n<p class=\"ifb-desc\"><strong>Year published<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>2015<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"dspaceDetails\">\n<p class=\"ifb-desc\"><strong>Authors<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Arndt, Channing; Asante, Felix A.; Thurlow, James<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"dspaceDetails\">\n<p><strong>Citation<\/strong><\/p>\n<p class=\"citationDisplay uagb-ifb-desc \" data-identifier =\"10568\/149577\">Arndt, Channing; Asante, Felix A.; and Thurlow, James. 2015.
