Lessons learnt Entry points: - SI to build on existing policies, technologies - Gaps identified to fill (technological, capacity, policies, institutions, existing data) Opportunities: - Participatory approaches towards integration of disciplines, evaluation of best bets, land use planning - seed systems improvement - private sector involvement Partnerships and engagement - Interaction among researchers - internal/external communication - Policy maker/private sector engagement Logistics and organization - contractual issues, inadequate infrastructure

Research framework generic to be applicable across all three Africa RISING regions flexible to allow site specific adaptation test a set of hypotheses linked to research outputs and associated development outcomes

Selection of Action Sites Co-location with USAID country mission investments/other actors Representative regarding drivers of intensification to allow for scaling up to areas with similar conditions: population density, market access, agro-ecological condition Provide for rigorous M&E to determine impact of AR IFPRI: stratification/characterization of target wards and villages TZ: Kiteto, Kongwa, Kilombero, Babati districts MAL: Ntcheu, Dedza districts ZAM: Eastern Province
