2004

This publication is a product of an ongoing collaborative research project between the International Crops Research Institute for the Semi-Arid Tropics (ICRISAT) and the International Food Policy Research Institute (IFPRI). The project aims to introduce dryland crops into the updated IMPACT model and undertake strategic analysis of future opportunities and challenges for SAT agriculture. We would like to extend our sincere thanks to Mark Rosegrant, for providing the necessary background material for the training workshop from which this technical manual has been developed. Special thanks are to Siet Meijer for sharing her experience and offering the training at ICRISAT Patancheru (India), which was very useful in introducing the different variants of the IMPACT model to ICRISAT staff. We also appreciate the coordination and cooperation rendered by our staff to make the training program a success. We thank the Learning System Unit for providing us the necessary logistical support for the training.
