Abstract
The report is a synthesis of the inception workshop where all collaborating partners were represented. The project works with smallholder farmers in identifying and using improved farming technologies, and to enhance the capacity of participating institutions and individual researchers to conduct and manage research and development, using integrated soil fertility management (ISFM) and livelihoods as entry points. The planning workshop aimed at fostering a shared understanding of project objectives, activities and anticipated outputs among major partners in order to enable development of operational plans. Each country team is responsible for their own work plan details, drawn from workshop proceedings and insights.
