Data or statistical facts on the situation and perspectives of agri-food systems and the impact of policies
Smart subsidies combine co-financing and technical assistance. PRODAF’s smart subsidies combined non-reimbursable contributions with technical assistance to foster efficient and environmentally sustainable technology adoption.
NDVI-based remote sensing is a valuable, cost-effective proxy for yield to assess temporal dynamics of impacts.
Annual NDVI (average and maximum) is used to observe pre- and post-intervention trends for treated and control units. The longitudinal approach captures the "before and after" dynamics of the program.
The monthly NDVI signal shows greater variation in annual crops such as cotton and greater stability in perennial crops such as citrus.
The combined strategy of using surveys and satellite images allows for measuring mechanisms (adoption, credit) and returns, offering consistent evidence.
0.006 was the average DID effect on mean NDVI for citrus, indicating productivity improvement.
100% of certified cocoa farmers in West Africa must provide their specific GPS coordinates to enable close monitoring via satellite technology according to Rainforest Alliance (Larrea et al., 2021).
1 new portal (FIS GIS and Earth Observation Portal) has been launched by FSC that will enable auditors to access geospatial information of FSC-compliant forest areas in real time (Larrea et al., 2021).
While 71% of the urban population has significant connectivity services, in rural populations this percentage drops to 36.8%.
The 124 g LWG/kg DM represents the average feed conversion with 360 g/kg CP of RUP, being 10 g LWG/kg DM higher than with 260 g/kg CP of RUP (Corea et al., 2020).
