Perspectives on Pests: Achievements of research under the UK Department for International Development's Crop Protection Programme, 1996-2000

Abstract

Achievements from a selection of CPP-funded research projects in sub-Saharan Africa, South Asia and South America between 1996 and 2000 are highlighted in Perspectives on Pests. An overview of how crop protection research relates to poverty alleviation, sustainable livelihoods and environmental issues is followed by summaries of over 50 research projects, outlining the background to each project, the key findings, and current and potential uptake of the technologies developed. A full listing of all CPP projects undertaken between 1996 and 2000 is also given, as well as contact information for the main organisations participating in the research.
