ERA Signature research program. The project began the roll-out of its research program. This is being done with the assistance of Senegal’s FNRAA. This partnership serves also in strengthening the capacity of the local institution to interact directly with USAID|Senegal in support of the mission’s goals to work directly with indigenous institutions as part of USAID/Forward. Results achieved during the period include:  The development of a detailed approach and implementation plan for the research program, which will provide a clear way forward for the three- year period of planned activities  The use of a Modified Value Chain for the four Senegal FTF cultures allowing researchers to focus on resolving gaps in a comprehensive fashion. This is represented via the graphic below: Research Program Synopsis  A request for proposals, which yielded over 25 responses from practically all of the AETR partners of the project. Other stakeholders were able to join consortia to participate in the call for research proposals.  A five-day workshop on the preparation of scientific research proposals, for bidders in the competitive grant program initiated by USAID/ERA, in partnership with FNRAA. The workshop was attended by 19 participants, which came from the AETR institutions.  A "Pre-award Grant Proposal or Bidder Conference" for the Primary Investigators of the full proposals. The conference was to serve as an avenue for answering questions and clarifying points of concerns regarding the final selection process for the winning proposals. The conference, which was attended by 37 participants, provided them the opportunity to consolidate proposals into stronger consortium lots. The consolidation effort was devised also to strength research linkages and partnerships amongst the researchers working in the same set of agriculture problems and issues in the agriculture sector.
