=The TechFit tool - scoring the interventions and applying filters=

At the May 2013 workshop in Addis, scoring was carried out by a group of feed and animal nutrition scientists with experience in smallholder livestock feeding and production systems in Africa, Central and South America, and Southeast and South Asia. Prior to the workshop, Harinder Makkar, Adugna Tolera and Werner Stur, independently scored interventions and these scores were used as a starting point for discussions by the group. The potential of each intervention to mitigate feed scarcity and quality, and its potential impact on animal production was discussed for different animal types, and production and farming systems. The group also scored the requirement of each intervention in terms of land, labour, capital, input delivery and knowledge. There were rich discussions, as the group compared experiences with the range of interventions in different parts of the world, and reached consensus on scores. (July 2013)
