Descripción
The booklet presents the result of the activities undertaken by the projects “Strengthening Agro-climatic Monitoring and Information Systems (SAMIS) to improve adaptation to climate change and food security in Lao People's Democratic Republic” and “Sustainable Productivity in agriculture in the context of Climate Smart Agriculture and Agro-ecology”. In the leaflet, the story map of the cassava crops production system is analysed using the agro-ecological zoning future crop suitability maps and multiple foresight analysis tools. All elements of the crops value chain are identified, as well as current and future risks and opportunities. Based on these analyses, the policy recommendations containing proposed actions and strategies are elaborated in the form of a pathway action plan. This story map was produced by national experts and its validity was confirmed and tested by field missions and national expert meetings, which involved local experts and various stakeholders, including farmers and private sector. The main beneficiary of this leaflet should be the policy and the decision-makers at the local and national level.
