The challenge when searching specific traits from genebanks is that resources to search for a given trait are often such that only a relatively small subset of the available genebank can be evaluated. Thus, to be effective, a strategy is required to identify the smallest possible subset of germplasm to evaluate whilst increasing the chances of capturing the sought-after variation.Genesys currently holds more than 4 million genebank accessions from 462 institutes and is accessed by users to order germplasm. From these, around 768,576 accessions are held at CGIAR genebanks. Identifying the correct set of accessions to respond to these requests adequately can be time-consuming.The subsetting tool allows to develop and implement data mining techniques for subsetting germplasm accessions, thus helping address germplasm requests more effectively and efficiently. The sub-setting is based on indicators for historical climate information, soil information and specific per crop regarding stresses. This web tool allows users to compose the needed subsets and order them directly from genebanks in Genesys. In the tool, a user identifies a series of potential subsets using data and analytics and then selects the subset of accessions that best suits their interest. For example, amongst four potential subsets, they may select the subset with accessions grown in the driest places.Item አጭር የፖሊሲ መግለጫ | ለተሻሻለ ሥነ-ባህርይ እና የእንሰሳት ጤና ለአውራ በጎች እና ፍየሎች የጥራት ማረጋገጫ መስጠት(Brief, 2022-12-22) Rekik, Mourad; Getachew, Tesfaye; Haile, Aynalem; Rischkowsky, Barbara A.Item በኢትዮጵያ የእንስሳት ገበያዎች ዉስጥ ያሉ አገልግሎቶች ፍላጎት እና ፋይዳ(Brief, 2022-12-22) Tesfahun, Girma; Zeleke, Fresenbet; Asnake, Woineshet; Haile, Aynalem; Rischkowsky, Barbara A.Item የእንስሳት መኖዎች | የተሻሻለ የበግ ድለባ በኢትዮጵያ ለበርካታ ሴቶችና እና ወጣቶች የንግድ ሥራ ፈጠራ እድልን እያስገኘ ነው(Brief, 2022-12-22) Wamatu, Jane; Ephrem, Nahom; Rischkowsky, Barbara A.Item አጭር የፓሊሲ መግለጫ | በኢትዮጵያ ማህበረሰብ አቀፍ የበግና የፍየል የዝርያ ማሻሻያ መርሐ ግብሮችን የማስፋፋት ስልቶች(Brief, 2022-12-22) Haile, Aynalem; Getachew, Tesfaye; Rekik, Mourad; Rischkowsky, Barbara A.Item የገበያ መረጃ በበግና ፍየል አርቢዎች የገበያ ተሳትፎ እና ገቢ ላይ ያመጣው ለውጥ | በኢትዮጵያ ውስጥ ከተደረገ ሙከራ የተገኘ ማስረጃ(Brief, 2022-12-22) Tesfahun, GirmaItem የእንስሳት ዝርያ ማሻሻያ | የአልትራሳውንድ መሣሪያን በመጠቀም የበጎችንና የፍየሎችን እርግዝና ደረጃና የመራቢያ አካል እክሎችን መመርመር(Brief, 2022-12-21) Rekik, Mourad; Getachew, Tesfaye; Haile, Aynalem; Rischkowsky, Barbara A.Item የእንስሳት ዝርያ ስነ ባህሪይ | በአነስተኛ እንሰሳት አርቢዎች የእርባታ ችግሮች ለመፍታት የሰው ሰራሽ ማዳቀልን በበጎችና ፍየሎች መጠቀም(Brief, 2022-12-21) Rekik, Mourad; Getachew, Tesfaye; Haile, Aynalem; Rischkowsky, Barbara A.Item የእርባታ እንስሳት ስነ-ባህርይ | ለዝቅተኛ የግብዓት ሥርዓት ተስማሚ የሆነ ማህበረሰብ-አቀፍ የበግና የፍዬል ዝርያ ማሻሻያ መርሐ ግብር(Brief, 2022-12) Haile, Aynalem; Getachew, Tesfaye; Rekik, Mourad; Mwacharo, Joram M.; Rischkowsky, Barbara A.Item ሥርዓተ ፆታ | የማህበረሰብ ውይይቶች በገጠሪቱ ኢትዮጵያ የሥርዓተ ፆታ ግንኙነቶችን በመለወጥ ሴቶችን አብቅተዋል(Brief, 2022-12-21) Lemma, Mamush; Kinati, Wole; Tigabie, Abro; Mekonnen, MesfinItem Women and youth entrepreneurship in sheep fattening: IPSR Innovation Profile(Brief, 2022-12-15) Wamatu, Jane; Zeleke, Muluken; Abiso, Tesfaye; Alemayehu, Lulseged; Ephrem, NahomAn approach to improve performance and market orientation in sheep fattening by women and youth facilitated through collection action; to increase their access to training in improved feed and feeding technologies, husbandry, entrepreneurship skills and financial literacy; to enhance participation in market-oriented sheep fattening; and to create an enabling environment by strengthening stakeholder engagement through community-of-practice platforms.Item Sustainable Intensification of Mixed Farming Systems Initiative(Brief, 2022-06-15) International Institute of Tropical Agriculture; International Center for Agricultural Research in the Dry Areas; International Water Management Institute; International Maize and Wheat Improvement Center; International Rice Research Institute; International Livestock Research Institute; Alliance of Bioversity International and CIATItem Theory of Change: Sustainable Intensification of Mixed Farming Systems Initiative(Brief, 2022-05) International Center for Agricultural Research in the Dry Areas; International Institute of Tropical Agriculture; International Rice Research Institute; International Maize and Wheat Improvement Center; International Water Management Institute; International Livestock Research Institute; Alliance of Bioversity International and CIAT
