MonQI applications |
|
|
|
Over the past years the MonQI methodology has been applied in several projects for the following purposes:
- Pesticide use monitoring on water melon in Vietnam
- Tea management monitoring in Kenya
- Livelihood impact monitoring in Indonesia
- Livelihood impact monitoring in Somalia
- Income impact monitoring in Ethiopia, Nepal and Zambia
- Horticulture management monitoring in Ethiopia
The actual MonQI set ups differ from project to project as each project has different information needs. Configurations range from very global (high number of farms, low temporal and activity resolution) to highly detailed (low number of farms, many specific activities and daily recording) and everything in between.

PRIMET is a model that can be used to estimate the environmental risk of pesticide use under different field circumstances and application regimes in the tropics and is based on a simplification of TOXSWA, PEARL and other approaches. More information can be found at the MAPET project web site. PRIMET software was released in March '05. |
