APNI Annual Report 2022 - Towards Transformation

At the core of ATCS is it’s collaborative
Ph.D. research approach generating
synergetic R&D with partner
Universities, National Agricultural
Research Systems, selected tree crop
producers’ networks, and private sector
who collectively pledge for:
• improved engagement between
research and extension services in
finding fundamental knowledge gaps
that hinder efficient nutrient use in
tree crop systems,
• a participatory research process
with effective farmers and private
sector engagement for relevant
research outputs dissemination; and,
• the alignment of novel crop nutrition
research and education packages
for tree crop systems with priorities
of international, regional, and
national research institutions and
extension services as well as private
stakeholders to catalyze adoption of
innovation.
