CIMMYT presents data to Tropentag on potential benefits of women participation in household decisions on crop farming and variety selection.
Farmers, development practitioners and scientists gathered at Tropentag 2022 between September 14-16 to answer a question that will affect all our futures: can agroecological farming feed the world?
Tropentag is an annual interdisciplinary conference on research in tropical and subtropical agriculture, natural resource management and rural development, jointly organized by nine European universities and the Council for Tropical and Subtropical Agricultural Research (ATSAF e.V), in cooperation with the GIZ Fund International Agricultural Research (FIA).
This year’s event explored the potential of agroecology to contribute to improved nutrition, enhanced natural resource management and farm incomes.
