Objectives: Align on what we want to accomplish through end of March 2022 (6 months into the project) and who is doing what.
Also, lets leave a few minutes towards the end to share India travel dates; sounds like many folks with be in Patna in January and would be great to connect in person and introduce this work to any relevant stakeholders.
Attendees:
Pre-read:
Note: this is a rough first pass based on the current DG understanding and our project proposal. Welcome feedback / input from others.
Workstream | What is success (March 2022) | Who is doing what? |
|---|
Content identification and dissemination | Content for 5 rabi practices incl a generic “Why CSA” reaches ~88k farmers of which ~20% adopt at least one practice Practices for kharif 2022 identified and aligned with broader Convergence Platorm Instrumentation in place to track reach and adoption within JEEViKA system and beyond Aligned with JEEViKA on kharif districts and practices; in position to reach +120k farmers
| CIMMYT and CSISA validate and provide technical guidance on practices (eg, N fertilizer optimization rates, why CSA / climate sensitization training for VRPs and farmers) DG to develop scripts and work with local video production resources to produce or adapt existing content DG works with JEEViKA to train VRPs and disseminate via VBE and alternative channels (eg, Whatsapp groups) EDF to make intros to value chain partners for necessary inputs/equipment if we want to empower farmers to address access barriers (and go beyond awareness)
|
Credible and cost effective data collection at-scale | Data on rabi practices captured for ~1,600 farmers Some basic automated data validation and checks in place Methodology for data capture and farmer sampling is documented and seen as credible basis for establishing a baseline of current practices at a district level
| EDF to support development / refinement of data collection methodology; look to a standard that is sufficiently robust for carbon markets DG to work with JEEViKA to train VRPs, design and deploy forms, make VRP payments, etc. CIMMYT to share learnings from LDS and review data collection methodology
|
GHG emission estimates; model inter-comparison and calibration | Initial GHG estimates from CFT and DNDC based on kharif 2021 data ready and visualized Initial feedback from inter-comparison shared with model developers; start of a dialogue that moves us towards more accurate models [tbc] Leverage EDF data for model calibration
| DG team to work with model developers to get initial GHG estimates CIMMYT to drive inter-comparison with a deep-dive on understanding how the models deal w soil hydrology EDF to support CIMMYT in inter-comparison work
|
Farmer data wallet; design and value prop | | |
Comms, advocacy, knowledge sharing | Bihar ecosystem mapping complete and engaged with at least 3 partners on potential collaborations Mapping of relevant stakeholders in potential “next-up” states and some initial outreach Hold learning workshop with JEEViKA team to build momentum for scaling the program to additional districts Prepare memo for first Sequoia Strategic Review call (submit 10 days prior to April 1)
| EDF and CIMMYT to make intros to relevant stakeholders in Bihar and other states EDF to advise on positioning with key stakeholders, esp policymakers and those involved in State Climate Action Plans EDF and CIMMYT to review and provide input on Sequoia memo (prepared by DG)
