In her remarks, Aline Mugisho, CGIAR country convener, explained that the CGIAR primary role is to produce agricultural innovations and technologies for food system transformation. She explained that CGIAR and FAO are complementary in the ways that they operate to achieve food system transformation goals in Nigeria.
Through partnerships, Mrs Mugisho said the FAO, some years ago, developed a system to store rainwater in the Sahel region so that they can have water across the year even though they have a very short period of rainfall yearly. "We are in the process of ensuring that these innovations get to the end users which are our farmers and ensure that they are used accurately," she said, adding that when information is half given, it is a recipe for disaster.
