The IFAD TA 38 Grant to CATIE finances and supports activities related to research and technology development in food crop production, as part of CATIE’s work in the Central American Isthmus. The project has five basic components: 1) three prototype teams 2) a support team 3) training 4) outreach operational support. Despite some budgetary limitation, progress was made in all components of the project during 1984. The prototype team in the humid tropics completed its first year of experimentation with cropping systems; the prototype for wet dry tropics (Panama) was able to formulate recommendations for the vegetable components of the cropping systems that predominate in the area. Training was given to 213 professionals and non-professionals in short courses, four graduate level courses were offered by project personnel, and 6 graduate and 26 undergraduate theses were completed with project support. Outreach activities included a second meeting of the cropping systems working group.
