Under SRFSI project objective 1, various socio-economic surveys to understand farmers’ socio-cultural settings, gender roles, issues and constraints, constraints to surface and groundwater availability, market structure and dynamics, constraints to machinery availability, existence and role of local and regional government and non-government organization partners in technology generation and dissemination, etc. were conducted using focus group discussions (FGDs); literature review, and formal and informal interviews and questionnaire, which helped identifying, designing and implementing various kinds of interventions in fields were also part of Objective 1. From the initial inception meeting, gender mainstreaming remained a key aspect of project. A multi-pronged approach was used to achieve gender mainstreaming objective across all activities

Farmer participatory on-farm trials with CA technologies comparing with farmers’ practices (CT), were conducted in several fields in each community. Likewise, farmer-participatory alternative cropping systems trials were conducted comparing to exiting systems to find out suitable and more profitable cropping systems, prioritized to increase visibility and to avoid implementation and management problems that emerge when utilizing small plots with significant edge effects. Most trials were replicated in several fields within each community and were farmer-managed with backstopping from project staff and NARES partners. Project partners and staff coordinated monitored and acquired data. Where possible, collaborating farmers were selected by the community, and the project worked with already existed farmer groups, with groups of both men and women farmers.

Farmers’ participatory researchers managed long-term trails aimed at improving the productivity, profitability, and sustainability of smallholder agriculture in the EGP by addressing the following objectives: 1. Understand farmer circumstances with respect to cropping systems, natural and economic resources base, livelihood strategies, and capacity to bear risk and undertake technological innovation. 2. Develop with farmers more productive and sustainable technologies that are resilient to climate risks and profitable for small holders. 3. Facilitate widespread adoption of sustainable, resilient, and more profitable farming systems

These journal papers were published under the activities of SRFSI project.The data were collected with the help from DAE, BARI, and RDRS in Bangladesh; ICAR, BAU, UBKV, DoA-WB, Shakhi and JEEViKA in India, NARC and DoA in Nepal and community-based organizations (CBOs) in the region and are thankfully acknowledged. The support received from CSIRO, Curtin University, University of Queensland, the University of New England in Australia; iDE Nepal; IRRI, IWMI, and IFPRI are also greatly appreciated. We thank the farmers, service providers, machinery dealers of EGPs for their co-operation and inputs in implementing on-farm trials. A tremendous progress has been made in achieving milestones/outputs set in the proposal. This level of achievements would not have been possible without collaborators and other stakeholders’ dedicated supports. Thanks, are also due to Australian Centre for International Agricultural Research (ACIAR) and the Department of Foreign Affair and Trade (DFAT) for the support of CASI technology development and delivery in the EGPs. This research synthesis report is an output from a collaborative regional multi-partnership project managed by CIMMYT with the ACIAR and DFAT funding for the benefit of developing countries (CSE/2011/077).
