The CGIAR Flagship Report  aims to synthesize its research in an accessible format designed specifically to arm policy- and decision makers at national, regional, and global levels with the evidence they require to formulate, develop, and negotiate evidence-based policies and investments.

Among the featured case studies:

• Improved crops and livestock breeds deliver triple wins—nutrition, income, and climate resilience. EnviroCow helps farmers in sub-Saharan Africa reduce feed costs and emissions while boosting earnings, while zinc-rich wheat in Pakistan now reaches over 100 million people annually, raising zinc intake by 21% and addressing widespread deficiencies among women and children.
• Bespoke fertilizer advice in Ethiopia, where farmers increased crop yields by up to 29% and incomes by up to USD 270/ha by using landscape-specific guidance tailored to slope, soil health, and climate. The initiative now spans 23 districts and continues to scale.
• Smart rice water management in Vietnam, which trained over 33,000 farmers in climate-smart techniques that reduce methane emissions and water use without lowering yields. The alternate wetting and drying technique has now been integrated into Vietnam’s national climate policy.

Case studies include implementation resources such as expert contacts, how-to guides, impact studies, and tools to support scaling.
