AgResults: Innovation in Research and Delivery AgResults is a multilateral initiative incentivizing and rewarding high-impact agricultural innovations that promote global food security, health, and nutrition and benefit smallholder farmers. AgResults originated at the June 2010 G20 Summit inToronto, where leaders committed to exploring innovative, results-focused methods of harnessing private sector innovations in food security and improving productivity in developing countries. By using pull mechanisms, the initiative goes beyond traditional aid measures to promote the uptake of innovative technologies with high-yield development impacts. The objectives of AgResults are to 1) overcome market failures impeding agricultural innovations by offering results-based economic incentives (pull financing) to competing private actors for the uptake of new agricultural technologies; and to 2) test the effectiveness and efficiency of pull financing in comparison with traditional approaches to the promotion and uptake of innovative agricultural technologies.

Short-Term Technical Assistance In Biotechnology (STTAB) Despite the potential benefits of biotechnology, few technologies throughout history have caused as much controversy. Its application has raised concerns about safety to human health and the environment, as well as issues of technology access and equity and potential impact on politics and trade. DAI provided technical assistance primarily to developing-country governments to help them make informed decisions and draft national biosafety frameworks in line with their international obligations. The DAI team provided technical assistance to build the capacity of local institutions to make decisions on issues specifically relating to cotton, food aid, trade, and biosafety, and regulation of biotechnology. The team worked with the U.S. Agency for International Development (USAID), government counterparts, and other stakeholders to design and deliver cutting-edge conferences, study tours, and policy briefs, and to field international experts for short-term technical assignments.
