Join USAID’s demonstration of the Sustainable Agriculture Decision Support Tool that helps users evaluate the financial and climate impacts of agricultural technologies. This webinar will demonstrate a tool that was developed to assess the financial and climate impacts of alternative agricultural technologies, by accounting for climate forecasts to maximize agricultural and environmental outcomes. The presentation will discuss the pilot application of the tool for two agricultural technologies in Senegal: (1) dual-purpose millet and cowpeas that have higher crop and fodder yields, and (2) dual-purpose crops of millet and cowpeas with farmer-managed natural regeneration (FMNR), which involves nurturing tree growth around croplands.
