Elective combinations of component technologies (crop/tree, livestock, and water/soil) addressing location specific, priority commodities will improve HH productivity and nutrition and enhance income Project research outputs addressed: 1 and 2
Hypothesis one (addresses Research hypothesis 1)
![Page 3: Upper East Region](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062218/56816183550346895dd116cd/html5/thumbnails/3.jpg)
Tested and piloted combinations of component technologies (crop/tree, livestock, and water/soil) addressing increase productivity of market led (demand driven) commodities are more likely to be adopted by HH to increase income and improve nutrition Project research outputs addressed: 1, 2 and 3
Hypothesis two (addresses research hypothesis 2)
