Making evidence accessible

Authors of this brief share preliminary lessons from an ongoing evaluation of Niger’s Agricultural Production Intensification for Food Security Project (PIPA/SA) which aims to increase irrigated and rain-fed crop production. Since the intervention areas are remote and hard to survey, the West African Development Bank (BOAD) commissioned 3ie and New Light Technologies to use remotely sensed data to analyze various program outcomes, including changes in production, water availability, siltation and desertification.

Authors of this report presents the findings of a systematic search to identify and map the evidence base of impact evaluations and systematic reviews of interventions that aim to promote political competition effectiveness in low- and middle-income countries.

This report provides an overview of the available impact evaluations and systematic reviews on agriculture-led growth interventions to support decision-making in global agricultural development. This map was commissioned by USAID’s Bureau for Resilience and Food Security.

The authors of this study evaluate the short-run impacts of a project aimed at modernizing banana cultivation in Kenya implemented by the East Africa Market Development Associates (EAMDA).

This brief is based on an evidence gap map that examines the effects of nutrition-sensitive agriculture interventions across food systems in low-and middle-income countries. This work has been commissioned by USAID’s Bureau for Resilience and Food Security.
