STATEMENT FROM

the Board Chair

In 2011, the CIP Board of Trustees met in Beijing China, along with China’s Minister of Agriculture Han. Pictured from left to right are: S. Ayyappan, Jose Valle-Riestra, Stella Williams, Simon Best, Pamela K. Anderson (CIP, DG), Hon. Han Changfu (Minister of Agriculture), Peter VanderZaag (Board Chair), Phyllis Kibui, Zhang Taolin (Vice-Minister of Agriculture), Lu Xiaoping.

2011 was an exciting year for CIP. We celebrated the Center’s 40th

anniversary

and set into place a new organizational structure to lead CIP’s management and research agenda into a new decade of growth, challenges, and opportunities.

Today, CIP employs a staff of over 600 people, spread across offices in nearly 30 different countries. In the coming years, we anticipate that CIP’s size and reach will expand considerably.

The organization’s complexity and expected growth require strong, sophisticated management – including a full complement of senior-level administrators. They also drive the need for a flatter structure to decentralize decision-making and accountability, while also recognizing the strong and diverse leadership talent base of our staff around the world.

This year, CIP instituted a new level of senior leaders at CIP headquarters and in its four regions.

Several new positions were created. For the first time, CIP has a Chief Operating Officer (COO), Chief Financial Officer (CFO), and Deputy Director for the CIP China Center for Asia and the Pacific (DDG-CCCAP). In addition, there are four new Regional Operations Leaders (ROLs) for each of CIP’s global regions: Latin America-Caribbean (LAC); Sub-Saharan Africa (SSA); South,

West and Central Asia (SWCA); and East and Southeastern Asia-Pacific (ESEAP). This group will serve to help strengthen management processes, further cross-center coordination, and ensure efficient program management, donor relations, and accountability.

Another important organizational change in 2011 included the refinement of CIP’s research areas. New Regional Scientific Leader (RSL) positions were created for Potato or Sweetpotato in each of CIP’s global regions. The number of Global Scientific Leaders (GSLs) was also expanded to reflect the growing importance of cutting-edge work being conducted in CIP’s global programs. Along with providing scientific leadership and oversight, these leaders identify and coordinate cross-cutting issues across regions or between geographic and global programs.

Finally, seven Research Support Units were identified, with a Manager for each and a Head to oversee them all. Each unit has specific infrastructures, capital, instrumentation, facilities, and talent needed to deliver research support services and create new business opportunities.

CIP maintained solid fiscal management in 2011, despite a year of financial uncertainties due to global economic conditions, and in a context of major system and funding structure changes.

The consortium of international agricultural research centers, known as the CGIAR, of which CIP is a member, began implementation of fundamental reforms in 2011. These included transformations in funding structures, organizational framework, and cross-center collaborations. The approval and implementation process for 15 new cross-organizational CGIAR Research Programs (CRPs) was begun. CIP participates in seven of the CRPs. It leads the CRP on Roots, Tubers, and Bananas, which was formally approved in November and is set to begin implementation on January 1, 2012.

Like CIP, the CGIAR also celebrated a 40th anniversary in 2011. As we pass this auspicious milestone together, we look forward to a promising future, built on the legacies of our shared investments, and turned to meet the challenges of a changing world.

We are grateful to CIP’s staff, partners, and donors for their dedication and support.

CIP’s is a great mission. We look forward to advancing it together for decades to come.

Peter VanderZaag Chair, CIP Board of Trustees

production technologies.

Christine tine Nashuru Nash hur cutss the figure g of a traditional Maasai woman, an, tall and shy. She lives in the Transmara smara D District istr of Kenya, in the southwestern Rift Valley Province. Christine did not access formal education, but thanks to a CIP-led training course, she has pioneered the production of seed potato in her district. Christine sold over 10.3 tons of seed potato in 2010, worth over US$4,000, and she is expecting more than 80 tons of seed from her 4 acres for 2011.

This is an unusual role for a Maasai woman. By tradition, the pastoralist Maasai are consummate cattle-herders. “I hope your cattle are well”, is a standard greeting.

But potatoes are taking on increased importance in Transmara District, and in the region more broadly, with rising demand. Yields remain low, however, for many farmers who lack access to quality seed or awareness of better seed management practices.

In August 2009, Christine was selected to attend a course on potato seed production held in Nairobi and organized by CIP. The course focused on the use of three-generation (3G) seed multiplication strategy.

The 3G seed strategy is geared to producing large numbers of minitubers, to be used as seed, through very rapid multiplication. The point is to yield sufficient, high-quality potato seed more quickly than through conventional methods in three field generations, instead of the usual seven required. The rapid multiplication means production costs are lowered, and the risk of pest or disease contamination is reduced.

Christine Nashuru (far left) is seen as a “darling of the village” and has trained other Maasai women from her district on how to grow seed and ware potato.

Amon has been planting aboutt o one acre of seed every season, garnering a net profit of about $600 (KSh. 50,000). More than 100 potato farmers arm have since benefited from his seed. Unlike his neighbors, whose potato crop reeled under devastating effects of bacterial wilt and late blight in 2011, his farm stands out as center of excellence. With the earning from his potatoes, Amon has started a retail shop and a posho mill (for grinding wheat or maize into flour).

Christine and Amon are not alone. According to the district reports, there are approximately 60 trained farmers working either individually or in groups who are now doing seed business in Kenya – up from only 20 when the project began.

“Christine is now a darling of the village; she is like light put on a hill for all to see her success.”

The private sector collaboration is key to increasing capacity and broadening adoption of quality seed. It also helps accelerate the availability of improved varieties that are more adapted to local conditions and demands.

With increased adoption of the 3G strategy and better management techniques, average yields have increased by 20% for more than 15,000 smallholder potato growers.

As for Christine, she has never looked back.

Not only is she driving better seed production in her district, she is also training other farmers in her region, mostly women, to produce better seed and ware potatoes. As one of her trainees notes, “Christine is now a darling of the village; she is like light put on a hill for all to see her success. She has brought seed to our doorstep and trained us in potato production. We now feed our families with the nutritive potatoes.”

SWEETPOTATOIN EETPOTATOIN PERPETUIT PERPETUITY: P

insurance insu ance for a changing world A new agreement between CIP and the Global Crop Diversity Trust is paving the way to support, conserve, and make available sweetpotato varieties today, and for the future.

The sweetpotato germplasm collection at CIP comprises 7,777 accessions, including 4,615 landraces (native varieties), 1,984 breeding lines (improved varieties), and 1,178 samples of wild sweetpotato. They originate from Asia, Africa, the Americas, and the Pacific Islands. It is the largest and most diverse sweetpotato collection in the world. The purpose of the collection is to conserve living samples to ensure that genetic resources are available now for use by farmers, plant breeders, and researchers, and that they are secure for the long term.

Sweetpotato is the potato of the tropics. It is a tough crop, able to grow in high temperatures and arid conditions with little demand for either water or fertilizer. Sweet potato ranks as the world’s seventh most important food crop, principally because of its versatility and adaptability.

The material preserved in CIP’s genebank holds great promise for the future. Sweetpotato is thought to have much potential for yield improvement, and the orange-fleshed varieties are a highly effective food for combating rampant vitamin A deficiency in Sub-Saharan Africa and parts of Asia.

In 2007, sweetpotato experts from around the world gathered at a CIP-organized workshop in the Philippines to address the concern that

16 International Potato Center • Annual Report 2011

the precious biodiversity of sweetpotato could be lost. “There was clear agreement among the participants of the need to regenerate sweetpotato material, which was at risk of being lost due to climate change,” explains Genoveva Rossel, sweetpotato curator for CIP’s genebank.

The workshop led to an agreement, signed in 2011, between CIP and the Global Crop Diversity Trust to provide US$1 million over five years from the Trust to support the sweetpotato collection in CIP’s genebank.

One of the principle functions of a genebank is to duplicate and maintain clonal collections to secure their conservation and use. The genetic diversity they hold is critical for developing varieties that can adapt to different needs and preferences of producers and consumers, and to the shifting pressures and conditions associated with climate change.

The sweetpotato accessions are conserved in the genebank both as seeds and as in vitro plantlets. Cryopreservation is also used to preserve plant material indefinitely. CIP is collaborating with the Global Crop Diversity Trust and researchers from six collaborating countries to develop cryo-preservation protocols, standardizing methodologies for longterm preservation of sweetpotato accessions.

“Sweetpotato specialists are a very collaborative group, here at CIP and globally,” notes Rossel.

“We work with colleagues across all parts of CIP, whether it’s regarding the identification of selected clones for improved varieties, analysis of nutritional value and quality, genetic analysis, or ensuring the distribution of clean material for colleagues and institutions around the world.”

of Peru was declared a national emergency area due to flooding, it was largely thanks to two CIP-developed late blight resistant potato varieties, called Pallay Poncho and Puka Lliclla, that the food security of local communities was preserved.

“Under high stress conditions, the yield of these two potatoes has been about 8-times higher than any of the 150 native potato varieties grown in the district,” explains Stef de Haan, CIP potato breeder. He adds, “they have made the difference between having enough to eat, or not.”

“Effects of climate change are making it so that formerly untouched areas are falling victim to the potatoes most feared disease, late blight, which is causing more damage with each year.”

Under normal conditions, Pallay Poncho and Puka Lliclla give yields of 15-16 tons per hectare, compared to 5 tons per hectare with the traditional native potatoes. In periods of high late blight damage, the difference is even greater. The yields hold up for the improved varieties but drop to only around 2 tons per hectare for the traditional varieties.

The first time that late blight began to wipe out potato harvests at higher altitudes in Peru was in 2003. CIP joined forces with the Peruvian Ministry of Agriculture and Peru’s National Institute of Agrarian Innovation (INIA) to address the problem. Twenty clones from CIP with expected late blight resistance went through evaluation and participatory selection with the 200 families in the affected area.

After 5 years, the two clones with the best properties were chosen. They were officially

The highlands of Peru are continuing to experience heavier than average rains and rising temperatures.

“Effects of climate change are making it so that formerly untouched areas are falling victim to the potatoes’ most feared disease, late blight, which is causing more damage with each year,” says CIP agronomist, Manuel Gastelo. Investigation by CIP suggests that small-scale farmers are not replacing traditional varieties with improved ones.

Rather, as they are averse to risk, they grow the improved varieties along with numerous native ones as a sort of insurance against disaster. So far, it is a strategy that seems to be paying off.

“Food security in Asia-Pacific is more than just cereals,” says Dindo Campilan, who, as CIP’s Regional Lead for South Western and Central Asia, has been a major proponent for expanding the understanding of the role and potential of root and tuber crops in the region. “Even in ricebased food systems,” explains Campilan, “roots and tubers rank among the top food staples in the region, providing affordable nutrition plus key opportunities to increase incomes through greater production and the development of higher value products.”

Potato, sweetpotato, cassava, yams, aroids, and other locally important species are highly associated with indigenous groups and resource-poor households.

They are also important crisis mitigation crops in the face of natural disasters, agro-environmental changes, or food price hikes. The global grain price crisis of 2008 helped bring greater attention to the importance of these crops. In 2011, this renewed interest culminated in a new CIP program, called Food Security Through Asian Root and Tuber Crops (FoodSTART).

Some of CIP’s greatest impacts have been in the Asia-Pacific region. Significant economic advances and gains in livelihood assets have been measured though impact studies.

Examples range from the adoption of improved potato varieties and better disease management practices for sweetpotato in China to the use of sweetpotato as animal feed in Indonesia and Vietnam, among others.

The Asia-Pacific region has the highest production, consumption, and utilization of root and tuber crops in the world. Thus the potential for even greater impacts is vast. But the value of root and tuber crops remains underappreciated.

Roots and tubers face a negative image in the region either as poor people’s food or as unhealthy and fattening.

There is an emphasis on indigenous communities (including ethnic minorities) and on women, as critical stakeholders for reaching household food security and nutrition objectives.

Priority locations are being determined through mapping and comprehensive data analysis to identify areas where reliance on root and tuber crops overlaps with high incidences of poverty and food insecurity. Forward-looking scenarios are assessing potential impacts of technological and policy interventions regarding root and tuber crops within the context of climate change pressures. Another emphasis of the program is on the versatility of root and tuber crops not only for home production, consumption, and sale but also as processed products and for use as animal feed.

Additional efforts are looking to boost the image and use of these crops through communication and knowledge sharing activities using media, social media, and extension workers. Program partners are also identifying root and tuber crop champions among celebrities, chefs, and program stakeholders.

SPEEDING S EDING BREEDING

to meet meet urgent needs in Mozambiq Mozambique CIP is dramatically reducing the time it takes to release new potato and sweetpotato varieties – with follow-up projects to ensure dissemination and their availability to farmers.

Fifteen drought-tolerant orange-fleshed sweetpotato (OFSP) varieties and seven new potato varieties were released in Mozambique in 2011 thanks to exciting approaches designed to radically shorten the time it takes to develop improved varieties.

“We want to revolutionize conventional breeding, using accelerated breeding and other advanced breeding methods,” explains Robert Mwanga, a CIP sweetpotato breeder based in Uganda.

With sweetpotato, the goal is to get much needed OFSP to farmers more quickly to help combat widespread vitamin A deficiency. CIP scientists and partners are using a method known as “accelerated breeding” to develop varieties rich in beta-carotene (for vitamin A) and suited to local needs, conditions, and preferences. “Accelerated breeding involves rapid multiplication of new varieties using many concurrent sites at early stages in the breeding cycle. This compares to conventional methods that use fewer sites over longer time periods,” explains Maria Andrade, a CIP sweetpotato breeder based in Mozambique. The method is cutting by half the time needed to develop new varieties.

The achievements are part of a program emphasis on breeding in Africa, for Africa. “We are investing in the development of diverse

22 International Potato Center • Annual Report 2011

sweetpotato types that will provide national programs with a wide range of ‘parents’ that have the preferred combination of characteristics to use in their own breeding programs,” says Mwanga.

The goal regarding potato is to lessen Mozambique’s costly dependence on imported seed, at a time when consumer demand for potato is rising. “With timely availability of seed for well-adapted varieties, we can enhance the sustainability and economics of potato production in Mozambique,” notes Dieudonne Harahagazwe, a CIP seed system specialist based in Malawi. In recent years, Mozambique’s government has been prioritizing food security, including the adaptation of agricultural regulations to fast track getting seeds to the field.

“We want to revolutionize conventional breeding, using accelerated breeding and other advanced breeding methods.”

CIP also works with partners to help ensure that new varieties actually reach smallholder farmers and enter into production, market, and consumption systems where their potential impacts on people’s lives can be realized.

The release of multiple new varieties at once not only helps end users, it also benefits researchers. “Usually, only one new variety is released at a time,” explains Merideth Bonierbale, who leads CIP’s global breeding program, “so there is little possibility to understand why one variety spreads quickly

notes Bonierbale, “we can collect and compare information on aspects such as farmers’ and consumers’ choices, other factors that can determine varietal success, and the costs and benefits of production.”

while another does not.” New varieties are all subject to the same institutional procedures and made available simultaneously to farmers and end-users. “We now have interesting opportunities to study uptake pathways,”

CIP’s Maria Andrade and Irene de Souza (USAID-retired), show off one of 15 newly released OFSP varieties in Mozambique thanks to accelerated breeding methods.

A MAJOR BOOST FOR BIOFORTIFICATION:

new use of NIRS technology revolutionizing food fortification efforts A key tool pioneered and applied at CIP saves time and money in the hunt for vitamin- or mineral-rich crop samples.

Near-Infrared Reflectance Spectroscopy may sound like a mouthful, but it represents a very useful and low-cost method for estimating concentrations of nutritional components in crops. Known as NIRS, it is now being used in a new way in CIP’s Quality and Nutrition Laboratory (QNLAB) that is radically strengthening the biofortification program and its potential impacts on combatting malnutrition and its devastating consequences.

Biofortification uses breeding to increase levels of nutrients such as iron, zinc, and vitamin A, which occur naturally in staple food crops.

It is an effective and sustainable means for addressing nutrient deficiencies and improving health outcomes, particularly for malnourished populations in remote areas.

“NIRS was traditionally used to analyze macronutrients such as protein, starch, and fat,” explains Thomas zum Felde, a CIP scientist who pioneered the adaptation of NIRS technology for evaluating critical micronutrients, such as iron, zinc, and pro-vitamin A carotenoids. The work is central to CIP’s biofortification research efforts, such as those aimed at boosting iron values in potato to address chronic anemia in the Andes and for combating vitamin A deficiency in Africa and Asia with orangefleshed sweetpotato varieties, among others.

Large numbers of samples must be analyzed to identify those with naturally high nutrient values that can be used for biofortification

24 International Potato Center • Annual Report 2011

breeding programs. NIRS provides a fast and low cost solution.

With NIRS, CIP scientists can analyze pro-vitamin A carotenoids, iron, zinc, protein, starch, glucose, fructose, and sucrose in potato and sweetpotato in less than two minutes for a cost of only US$5. In comparison, chemical analysis of pro-vitamin A carotenoids using High Performance Liquid Chromatography (HPLC) takes one hour at a cost of US$45 per sample. Similarly, chemical analysis of mineral content with Inductively Coupled Plasma spectrometry (ICP) requires 20 minutes and costs US$12 per sample.

“Imagine the cost and time savings for analyzing up to 40,000 samples annually that breeding programs at CIP require,” points out Zum Felde.

Preparing samples for NIRS is also much simpler than for chemical analysis, and it does not require the use of chemical solvents. In the last four years, CIP´s Quality and Nutrition Lab has evaluated more than 130,000 sweetpotato samples and over 6,000 potato samples for breeding programs. The Lab has also collaborated with HarvestPlus under the umbrella of a NIRS feasibility study to evaluate nutrients in crops such as maize, wheat, rice, cassava, millet, and beans from other CGIAR centers (CIAT, CIMMYT, ICRISAT, IITA, and IRRI).

Based in Lima, the Quality and Nutrition Lab (QNLAB) is expanding its reach to create a global NIRS network. In 2011, that network began to facilitate the analysis of sweetpotato samples in SubSaharan Africa, including Uganda, Mozambique, and Ghana. Plans are to expand the network to Rwanda and China.

A DECADE OF PROPOOR PROPOOR INNOVAT INNOVATIONS:

the Papa Andina ex experience pe er ence generated innovations and unleashed the potential of native potato for increasing and diversifying incomes for small-scale Andean farmers.

“Selling native potatoes to the industry has changed our lives” says Victoriano Meza, a farmer from Peru’s central Andes. It has meant additional income to build a house for his family and equip it with satellite internet “so that my children can learn quickly and get a better future.” Mr. Meza is one of thousands of small-scale Andean farmers benefitting from a new boom in the market for native potatoes, and from pro-poor innovations to link them to the native potato market chain, spearheaded by CIP’s Papa Andina program.

Papa Andina is a CIP partnership program, which works in collaboration with research organizations, public partners, the private sector, and NGOs. For over 10 years it has functioned as an innovation broker in the Andean potato sectors of Peru, Bolivia, and Ecuador.

Product innovations from Papa Andina have opened new market niches and brought higher prices for farmers. Examples include awardwinning T’ikapapa (bagged native potatoes), packaged traditional dehydrated chuño, and native potato chips originally pioneered through Papa Andina’s Participatory Market Chain Approach (PMCA) and taken up by large, multi-national companies. By promoting the integration of corporate social responsibility, Papa Andina has helped ensure that the benefits of corporate involvement reach small farmers and are socially and environmentally sustainable.

26 International Potato Center • Annual Report 2011

Other Papa Andina results include new public policies and practices to invest in the sector, regulate product quality, and raise the profile of native potatoes as a high-value product and cultural asset. For example, the establishment of an annual national potato day in Peru has elevated the native potato from poor man’s food to a point of national pride. Technological innovations spearheaded by Papa Andina range from improved seed systems for native potatoes to the application of integrated crop management techniques and improved postharvest management using simple processing equipment.

The impacts of its projects and methods have benefitted small-scale farmers and their families directly. In Bolivia, new potato products sold to supermarkets have enabled farmers to receive 30–40 percent higher prices than in traditional markets. The innovation network in Ecuador (Plataforma) has enabled farmers to raise yields by 33 percent, improving input:output ratios by 20 percent, resulting in a fourfold increase in gross margins per hectare.

Selling native potatoes to industry is changing lives and creating new opportunities for smallholder Andean farmers, and their families.

With more than 700,000 farming families working in the Andean potato sector, the indirect impacts are likely to be far greater, not only regarding incomes but also in terms of cultural, social, and personal assets. As notes farmer Nolberta Inostroza, “Now I produce and sell with less work, earn more, and take pride in sharing the native potatoes that I take care of, as my ancestors did before me.”

“Now I produce and sell with less work, earn more, and take pride in sharing the native potatoes that I take care of, as my ancestors did before me.”

Added to these are further collateral benefits to farming communities and parallel sectors stemming from the boom in demand. In fact, demand is so strong that in spite of increasing supplies, prices for fresh and processed native potato products continue to rise.

Designed for the Andean context, the Papa Andina tools and methods also have been applied successfully elsewhere. For example, the Participatory Market Chain Approach has been adapted to train and connect farmers to sweetpotato or potato market chains in Africa and Asia, and to vegetable, milk, and coffee value chains in Latin America.

The legacies of Papa Andina are particularly important as it faces its next decades. June 2011 marked the close out of the original Papa Andina Program, with a new iteration beginning in a broader context of food security across the Andean highlands. Its reach is expanding to include Colombia and Venezuela, along with the original targets of Peru, Ecuador, and Bolivia.

André Devaux, who has led Papa Andina, concludes: “Papa Andina has become a working model, even a philosophy, which will live on beyond the program itself. The model has created a horizontal space for effective interactions among diverse partners to better articulate research and development and to better address needs and improve livelihoods for small producers.”

orientation to smallholder producers can spur innovation and create greater linkages to value market chains.

“For farmers to link with markets, they need to learn not only to produce, but to produce for the market,” says Dindo Campilan, CIP’s Regional Leader for South West and Central Asia, who has helped introduce Farmer Business Schools in his region.

Campilan’s insights are based on work conducted by CIP to introduce innovations for improving on-farm productivity, postharvest value addition, and market development. The Farmer Business School approach, being piloted in Indonesia, takes marketing as a starting point for determining what, how, and for whom to produce. It combines methodological elements of the Participatory Market Chain Approach – developed by CIP’s Papa Andina Program to increase innovation and market access for native potato farmers in the Andes – with farmer field school and business learning approaches.

Farmer business schools provide a group-based and participatory learning environment for smallholder farmers to foment marketing ideas, conduct small-scale experiments for improving crop quality and production, and pick up business skills. They learn to develop a business plan, use market analysis tools, and meet with market chain stakeholders such as industry representatives.

Participants also pick up knowledge and strategies for handling supply chain issues.

Another benefit of the Farmer Business School model is that it serves to support farming communities in using local resources – such as crop genetic diversity and traditional know-how – for selling products to elite urban consumers and supermarkets.

Business skills of negotiation and strategy play a key role, too. Successful farm business requires the capacity not only for technological change but also for nurturing relationships among market chain actors based on trust, collaboration, and coordination.

But it is sweetpotato’s highly promising potential as an animal feed that interests Lukuyu, and has him teaming up with Sammy Agili, a CIP sweetpotato breeder and other public and private partners in East Africa. Their goal: to better exploit sweetpotato’s potential as a healthy and easily available livestock feed.

Two decades ago, CIP conducted similar research testing varieties of livestock forage using sweetpotato in countries such as Vietnam and China. Results showed that mixtures based on easily available resources were a clear formula for success: “The pigs are growing faster, their skins are shinier and best of all, it takes a lot less time to prepare feed for them,” was a comment from farmer Ta Van Hien in Pho Yen Province in 1999. More recently, a CIP project in PapuaIndonesia using sweetpotato-based formulas as pig feed showed positive impacts on farmers’ incomes and on other livelihood indicators, such as human capital, social cohesion, and physical structures.

“We are drawing on CIP’s many years of experience in Asia, where they successfully use sweetpotato in livestock systems,” says Lukuyu.

“In China, 25-30% of sweetpotato crops are used

TThe project is part of CIP’s Sweetpotato Action for Security and Health in Africa (SASHA) initiative, which aims to reposition sweetpotato in food economies of SSA to alleviate poverty and undernutrition.

Currently, smallholder livestock and dairy producers in East Africa face increasing feed costs and challenges. High population pressures have increased the competition for grains as food or livestock feed. Major shortages occur during the dry season, and quality feed concentrates demand a price many cannot afford. Napier grass, which is used in Kenya as a primary feed for dairy farming, requires significant allocations of land and is currently suffering from a major outbreak of a disease called head smut and stunt.

Increased use and production of sweetpotato may provide a solution.

Sweetpotato vines offer more protein and dry matter per unit area and require less land than other staple livestock feeds.

Sweetpotato roots that are too small for human consumption or sale also make good feed.

CIP and EADD are working directly with pig and dairy farmers in Kenya, Rwanda, and Uganda. They are guiding adaptive participatory research to test the feasibility and business case for using sweetpotato vines as silage and leaf protein supplements.

On-station and farm-based experiments

ONE SYSTEM, MANY GAINS

from a common CGIAR corporate platform One Corporate System represents a whole new level of collective action and transformative change that will vastly increase collaboration, information sharing, and efficiencies across the CGIAR Centers and Research Programs.

CIP is joining eight other CGIAR Centers and the Consortium Office to integrate their diverse project, financial, and human resource management systems into a common corporate platform, known as One Corporate System (OCS). The move is expected to create an automated and interconnected system that will boost efficiencies, support greater cross-Center coordination, and result in better investments of donor funding.

OCS is a Center-driven initiative. CIP was an early proponent of the project, recognizing the economic and organizational gains to be derived from adopting a joint system. Current calculations suggest that each participating Center is saving approximately US$500,000 by implementing a common platform and purchasing a system jointly instead of individually. And there are significant annual savings in equipment and maintenance costs associated with using a commonly hosted infrastructure.

Research and administrative teams from numerous Centers have invested considerable time and effort over several years to identify needs, align terminology, and analyze processes and requirements in preparation for the new system. In 2011, they devoted weeks to faceto-face workshops and reviews, along with multiple conference calls and remote meetings

32 International Potato Center • Annual Report 2011

to compare processes, test proposals and prototypes, and prepare for implementation.

OCS is already recognized as a model of CGIAR collaboration. “But it is also unconventional and complex,” notes Carlos Alonso, CIP’s Executive Director for Strategy and Corporate Development, who has been spearheading the project for CIP and coordinating much of the collaboration with other Centers.

Culling through the details of the system prototypes and design specifications has required enormous commitment, patience, and compromise from all the parties involved. The process has not been without its frustrations.

“OCS involves 10 institutions scattered around the world, with 10 different corporate cultures, diverse cultural backgrounds, and locations across many time zones,” notes Alonso. “But what makes this effort unique is that we are allll inspired by a shared vision of doing things better and a common purpose to make OCS a success,” he concludes.

Finalization of the OCS design, reconciliation of Center systems to the common one (known as localization), training, and implementation of the new system are slated to begin in 2012 for a first group of participating Centers.

dialogue among 255 stakeholders, across three continents, in less than two months, when the goal is to design a new global program aimed at maximizing impacts? This was the challenge put to a team of collaborators from multiple organizations, which developed the CGIAR Research Program (CRP) on Roots, Tubers and Bananas for Food Security and Income. Their discovery: while not an ideal scenario, the pressures of a tight schedule, coupled with good will and new synergies, can sometimes lead to creative, successful outputs.

Incorporating stakeholder perspectives in international agricultural research: the case of the CGIAR Research Program for Roots, Tubers and Bananas for Food Security and Income provides an instructive case-study of successful stakeholder consultation. It describes the process used to engage stakeholders and incorporate their feedback into program design, with lessons learned and experiences that can serve others looking to replicate, adapt, or build upon this example.

“This document not only offers insights on how stakeholder consultation can effectively flag important priorities in the project design phase, but also what methods worked best in achieving quality interaction,” says Graham Thiele, leader of CIP’s Social and Health Sciences Division, who formed part of the intercenter group leading the design of the program proposal.

One interesting finding of the case-study regards the effectiveness of different methods for gathering stakeholder input. To be as inclusive as possible with limited time and money, stakeholder input was gathered via regional workshops, on-line surveys, and one-on-one interviews, for a total of over 200 participants.

Among those methods, the on-line surveys proved to be surprisingly agile and effective for gathering and integrating responses in real time, including “new ideas.” They garnered feedback from 150 respondents, with detailed responses which were in many cases quite novel, thoughtful, and highly useful for the program proposal.

This comment from the leader of an international NGO in Africa gives a flavor: “Roots, tubers, and

bananas are not usually well positioned within agricultural extension, as decision makers do not have a full appreciation of their true importance. Quality data on true level of production, perhaps through remote-sensing methodologies, is an essential starting point.”

Input from stakeholders served to reaffirm the importance of core components of the program, and also shed further light on cross-cutting issues, such as gender, climate change, knowledge sharing, and capacity strengthening.

“The perspectives of different stakeholders raised our ability to reflect a more integral understanding of challenges and opportunities. It makes the program planning more grounded, and ultimately more likely to achieve objectives that will result in real development impacts,” explains Vincent Johnson of Bioversity, who led the consultation taskforce. “Without this perspective, we could never have delivered a convincing program proposal within the deadline,” he concludes.

FINANCIAL REPORT

The International Potato Center’s total revenues reached US$33.8M in 2011, 2% below those of 2010. They included US$9.2M of unrestricted contributions, US$24M of restricted donations and US$0.6M of other revenues, consisting of interests earned on investments and exchange rate gains.

Unrestricted contributions decreased by USD$2.2M in 2011 from USD$11.4M to USD$9.2M as a result of the transition from unrestricted contributions to the new CGIAR Research Programs, which are considered restricted contributions. Restricted contributions increased by USD$1.6M from USD$22.4M to USD$24M. During 2011, 41 new restricted proposals were submitted to donors, for a total of US$30.5M. In this same period, 36 proposals were approved, for a total value of US$22.1M.

CIP achieved a USD$ 0.07M surplus in 2011. The Center’s reserves, measured as net assets minus net fixed assets were USD$8.1M, a slight decrease with respect to 2010 due to the utilization of USD$0.6M in designated Net Assets for the implementation of a new Enterprise Resource Planning system.

Unrestricted expenditures decreased by 10% from US$10.8M to US$9.7M. CIP’s indirect cost ratio reached 20.6%. In 2010, the Center finished the revision of its cost structure and cost allocation methods in line with full costing principles in FG5. The 2009 indirect rate was revised for comparison.

The liquidity indicator (measured as net working capital plus long-term investments divided by the daily average expenditures excluding depreciation) decreased from 120 days in 2010 to 113 days in 2011. The financial stability indicator (calculated as the unrestricted net assets minus net fixed assets, divided by the daily average expenditures excluding depreciation) decreased from 100 days to 92 days in 2011. Both indicators are within the acceptable ranges of the CGIAR.
