Innovation platform for catalyzing access to seed of improved legume varieties to smallholder farmers.-.This open access book shares the experiences of Tropical Legumes III (TLIII) project in facilitating access to seed of improved legume varieties to smallholder farmers through innovation platforms. It highlights practices and guiding principles implemented in eight developing countries of sub-Saharan Africa and South Asia. This book details key processes that respective teams employed to create an innovation space that delivers seed, other inputs, knowledge and financial services to agricultural communities and most importantly, the underserved farmers in remote areas of the drylands. It offers valuable insights into the pathway to establishing, promoting and operating innovation platforms to enhance the performance and competitiveness of legume crops’ value chains, and addresses critical issues that must be considered to make innovation platforms more sustainable and attractive to beneficiaries. The book offers a wealth of practical insights for development workers, technical staff, and project managers. This publication is all about TLIII community of practice. It will definitely inspire other development workers and scientists to share their own experiences for others to learn from.AgricultureBiotechnologyPlant breedingPlant anatomyPlantsDevelopmentPlant geneticsAgriculturehttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/L11006Biotechnologyhttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/C12002Plant Breeding/Biotechnologyhttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/L24060Plant Anatomy/Developmenthttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/L24019Plant Genetics and Genomicshttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/L32020AgricultureBiotechnologyPlant Breeding/BiotechnologyPlant Anatomy/DevelopmentPlant Genetics and GenomicsPlant BiotechnologyPlant DevelopmentPlant GeneticsOpen AccessInnovation processesMulti-stakeholdersLegume value chainSeed businessRural livelihoodsSub-Saharan Africa and South AsiaAgricultural scienceBotany & plant sciencesDevelopmental biologyGenetics (non-medical)Agriculture.Biotechnology.Plant breeding.Plant anatomy.PlantsDevelopment.Plant genetics.Agriculture.Biotechnology.Plant Breeding/Biotechnology.Plant Anatomy/Development.Plant Genetics and Genomics.630Akpo Essegbemonedt990515Akpo Essegbemonedthttp://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edtOjiewo Chris Oedthttp://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edtKapran Issoufouedthttp://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edtOmoigui Lucky Oedthttp://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edtDiama Agatheedthttp://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edtVarshney Rajeev Kedthttp://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edtMiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910433228003321Enhancing Smallholder Farmers' Access to Seed of Improved Legume Varieties Through Multi-stakeholder Platforms3359043UNINA
