Abstract/Description
The CCAFS AgroClimas project and its associated bilateral agreements have been the first major push for capacity building and development of shared expertise in agro-climate services at the regional scale, spanning Colombia, Peru, and Central America. This included the Local Technical Agro-climatic Committees (LTACs), PICSA, integrated co-production processes, automated data workflows, and standardized tools and methods. The result has been institutional buy-in for CS, concomitant investment of USD ~2.8M in LAM, and an additional USD 10M in the pipeline.
