We are pleased to share the report, First Advance Estimate of 2016/17 Wheat Production in Nepal using the CCAFS Regional Agricultural Forecasting Toolbox (CRAFT).
This is a preliminary estimate and it will be revised with updated crop planted area and climate data as the season progresses.
This is a joint product of the Ministry of Agricultural Development (MoAD), World Food Programme (WFP), and the CGIAR Research Program on Climate Change, Agriculture and Food Security (CCAFS). The CCAFS Regional Agriculture Forecasting Toolbox (CRAFT) is being piloted as part of the Nepal Food Security Monitoring System (NeKSAP) and is a new initiative to incorporate crop yield forecasting in Nepal with technical support from CCAFS South Asia.
