Abstract

Featured Speaker:
Dr. Jacobo Arango, Environmental Biologist at the Tropical Forages Program at CIAT.

Student Speakers:

Vanina (Vani) Giselle Maguire, Argentina; Pénéloppe Thertulienne Gnavo, Benin; Fabiano Alecrim, Uruguay; Shimbahri Mesfin Gebreslase, Ethiopia; Israel Oliveira Ramalho, Brazil.

The 2020 CLIFF-GRADS Science Collaboration Series was developed to facilitate technical capability building, knowledge transfer and international collaboration for the CLIFF-GRADS Alumni. Particularly for the Round 3 CLIFF-GRADS whose research stays have been delayed due to the global Covid-19 Pandemic.

In addition to a series of special sessions with guest speakers, these webinars provide a platform for the Round 3 students to present their PhD research and research questions to their CLIFF-GRADS peers. Through establishing research connections, the CLIFF- GRADS Alumni network can connect internationally and across research institutes.

Thematic Sessions:

Specifically, during a series of thematic sessions, the Round 3 students will have the opportunity to clarify their PhD research questions and/or research direction with their peers. The thematic sessions have been disaggregated into the following agricultural systems: i) integrated, ii) pastoral and agronomy, iii) ruminant, iv) rice and v) soil.

Note: The second half of the video was lost along with the following presentations and discussion sections. All of the presentations apart from the first were prerecorded. We apologize for the inconvenience.
