16 Goal Strengthen the use of decision sciences and risk assessment in agricultural development and Deliver well-targeted information systems that reduce critical uncertainties and risks in key investment decisions facing stakeholders on improving land health and livelihoods Decision Analysis and Risk Assessment

AfSIS: Soil functional properties From polygon-based to probabilistic mapping + Probability of observing cultivation Current lime requirement ? ~ min [prob(pH < 5.5), prob(cult)] Probability topsoil pH < very acid soils Grid-based probabilistic maps increases the reliability of the map and its power to be combined with other data sources (remote sensing & terrain data) (Walsh, 2013) = Taxonomic soil classification systems provide little information on soil functionality in particular the productivity function (Mueller et al 2010) 17
