Babati RO2 Teams From Core Team, IITA (Coordination): Mateete Bekunda CIAT: Jean Claude Rubyogo / Job Kihara CIMMYT: Dan Makumbi SELIAN ARI: Stephen Lyimo ILRI: Ben Lukuyu

1.Conduct research in close cooperation with participating farmers and through their grassroots organizations. 2.Maximise conduct of field experiments on the same farms and fields so that the effects of treatment integration may be determined, and residual benefits quantified 3.Prior to the cropping season, RT to organize a meeting to discuss:  which of their WP technologies will be best integrated  how they may be scientifically designed & implemented 4.A project planning meeting with farmers, local administrators and extension supervisors at Action Site level be convened to discuss:  implementation schedules.  local farmer involvement in selection of experiment sites,  Farmer management of on-farm research 5.For , recommended mother-baby and field demonstration approaches for the truthing studies as these also allow for implementation of technology dissemination through participating farmers and farmers’ groups. Guidelines for research implementation

 All research packages have started, but at different start-up times  Most implementation guidelines were executed at work-package level rather than at project level  Partner Institutional support to AR through pre- financing of activities - appreciated  Results to provide opportunities for future integrated research as we identify (in-situ) new challenges to address Lessons learned
