Description
- The potential environmental impacts of the transformation of the dairy value chain was assessed through a collaboration between the Alliance, GIZ and national partners.
- Best Practice” scenarios based on increasing on-farm legumes (e.g., as a mixed crop with cereals or tree crops) and roughages reduce concentrate, fertilizer, water and land requirements (including off-farm). In some cases, GHG emission intensity reduced up to 40%.
Comments
What is meant by best practice scenarios? What scenarios were compared in this case? Not clear what baseline scenario is.
Who are the intended users? Farmers or extension people, researchers, advanced farmers etc?
Is Cleaned a tool for ex ante evaluation of environmental, climatic and economic impacts in livestock systems?
How to solve the problem of ex-post evaluation?
These tools produce very nice graphical outputs but sometimes we trust the data without really questioning what underlies it and how reliable it is. Comment?
what is the long term plan for the maintenance and improvement of the tool?
How far this tool has been used outside research/ academic group?
What being dependent on the CGIAR how this tool can be stand alone and be adopted widely?
- Comments from team:
The best practices are identified by whom?
No mention of ICARDA even though ICARDA facilitated the meetings and participated in them
Who have adopted this tool? And which department?
What is the weakness of this tool? And how can that be improved?
