    Digital technologies are slowly spreading in agriculture sectors globally. But their adoption is hampered by the digital divide which requires significant public investments, improved policy and incentive frameworks to be bridged. Only after that, digital transformation will take place at scale. DAP is meant to assess the country's readiness for this digital transformation by identifying main bottlenecks, opportunities and risks for digital transformation. DAP will thus guide public investment and policy work to accelerate the scaling up of digital transformation.

    series, to the São Francisco basin in South America. The São Francisco Basin lies wholly

    within Brazil. There are several major dams and wetlands in the Basin.

    Net runoff is about 16% of total precipitation. Grassland is the most extensive land use,

    covering 59% of the Basin and uses 48% of the water. Rainfed agriculture covers 23%

    of the basin, but uses 14% of the water in the Basin. Forest and woodland cover 16% of

    This project aims to increase agricultural productivity, incomes, and sustainable management of

    land and water by small farmers in the rural Sierra region of Peru. Although results demonstrate

    the effectiveness of increased productivity and commercialization of high value agricultural

    commodities, this type of activity may be limited to certain parts of the watershed with access to

    irrigation and startup capital. Interventions promoting commercialization, such as those of
