Remarks

Description: "The Global Agricultural Trial Repository (AgTrials) provides access to a database on the performance of agricultural technologies at sites across the developing world. It builds on decades of evaluation trials, mostly of varieties, but includes any agricultural technology for developing world farmers. It aims to facilitate the subsequent analysis on the performance of agricultural technologies under a changing climate and to form the basis for improving models of agricultural production under current and future conditions, and for evaluating the efficacy of trialed materials for adaptation." Current partners: Eight CGIAR centers: the Africa Rice Center (AfricaRice), the Tropical Soil Biology and Fertility Institute of CIAT (CIAT-TSBF), the International Potato Center (CIP), the International Crops Research Institute for the Semi-Arid Tropics (ICRISAT), the International Livestock Research Institute (ILRI), the International Center for Agricultural Research in Dry Areas (ICARDA), the International Rice Research Institute (IRRI), the International Institute of Tropical Agriculture (IITA) and Bioversity (Bioversity). National partners: IER, Réseau Ouest et Centrafricain de recherche sur le Sorgho, CILSS, IRAT -NARS/ CIRAD, SMIP
