Climate resilience takes innovation! Two visions of future in dry lands of Pakistan

Bold systems thinking @UnivWiscMadison Josh Posner centered farmers, prairies and crop livestock integration in the visionary WICST long term experiment started in 1990, in Malawi I read his seminal paper lifecycle analysis & innovative sust indicators. Thanks Valentine for an inspiring field visit!

Necessary discussions at #CGIARScienceWeek! The intersection of science, sustainability, and inclusive food systems is where change happens - thanks for this take @AlexRop! #BBC CrowdScience and Gen Z asking the hard questions for a changing world!

Climate action launch @cgiar.org Science week. If not now then when? bridging local knowledge, grassroots action and science for action! Farmer oriented decision guides, business unusual and participatory action research needs to lead the way. Lets get all the voice at the table.

#Savesoil!! @cifor-icraf.bsky.social Fabulous and needed call for action on soil health scaling at #IFA #leighwinowiecki my Shero! Evidence base, public private civil society partnerships and invest in soils where RoI merits so geotargeting and citizen science are key

Inspiration from Tanzania: youth and women farmers lead the way with poultry farming and pigeonpea as a triple win feed food & soil fertility. Climate adaptation requires crop livestock interventions and farmers willing to try novel crops & animal husbandry. Thanks @ilri.org @cimmyt.bsky.social

A few aerial pictures from some of our on-farm experiments and demo plots in Murehwa & Mutoko districts, 🇿🇼.

Perennial grain crops are here among us no longer a pipedream- thanks Malawi and China leading the way with civil society #thelandinstitute new options for farmers #savesoil family nutrition long lived roots+MO rewiring N P cycles #agrecology @vimbayic.bsky.social #PowellMponela @cimmyt.bsky.social

Root research through the years - the foundation of agricultural sustainabilty yet still so understudied! The hidden half is key to #savesoil, #climateaction, lets go root biologists! Which type of root systems are good for perennial crops?

Perennial grains - a revolution whose time has come? Can we break out of the bondage of ag labor by developing new types of crops, like soybean was developed in North America early last century? We need transdisciplinary efforts (as I wrote in 1988 who knew!) @thelandinstitute @cimmyt.bsky.social

This new paper, with colleagues at World Bank, uses pilot survey data to assess options for augmenting standard "household surveys" with soil sampling to provide information on soil quality to go with dietary and socio-economic data. authors.elsevier.com/sd/article/S00…

Science @cimmyt with partners builds evidence on market, climate shocks, conflict and how farmers respond. A learning agenda, puralistic extension and geotargeting can inform and improve resilience. @luckywinner1.bsky.social @teksapkota.bsky.social

Science and innovation week at CIMMYT - exciting to see how we are striving to become a better partner to cocreate with farmers through living labs and climate action! #farmer agency #participatory action #open science
