WP4. Data integration and designing solutions for resilient rubber cultivation systems for smallholders in a context of climate change
Through a participatory approach initiated in WP1 with all categories of stakeholders, both needs, requirements and local knowledge will be analysed in connexion with the capacity of rubber-based agroforestry and monospecific plantations studied in WP2. This will lead to identify crop/varieties and cropping system ideotypes for more resilient rubber cultivation systems in smallholdings. The relevant traits characterized in the Hevea germplasm (WP3) and intercrop species will be selected for a theoretical design of replanting packages. A Kobocollect tool will be developed to be able to monitor the upcoming on-farm trial.
This work package consists of 4 sub-activities:
4.1 Progressive data and knowledge integration throughout the project
4.2 Second Multilateral Workshop on Data integration and designing solutions for resilient rubber cultivation systems for smallholders in a context of climate change
4.3 Development of KoboCollect system for the formalization of on-farm data collection
4.4 Sharing and dissemination of co-constructed solutions
