Abstract

In this introduction meeting, we presented our research using the questions below: 

  • What is the role of systems analysis in your research?
  • What methods and approaches do you use? (modelling, life cycle assessment, field experiments, farm surveys, farm typologies, participatory research)
  • What systems level(s) are included? (global, regional, country, landscape, farm, field/herd/flock, plant/animal)
  • The overall aim of WaCASA is to analyse agricultural systems and to design productive, efficient, and sustainable production systems for crops, livestock, and their interactions. How does your research contribute to this aim?
  • Do you collaborate with WaCASA members of the other chair group?
