Project Description

Request from GFSI, https://www.uff.ufl.edu/giving-opportunities/025825-global-food-systems-institute-fund/

 

The Global Food Systems Institute (GFSI) is a UF|IFAS initiative aimed at addressing the greatest challenge of our time — providing safe and nutritious food for a growing global population while enhancing livelihoods, societies, and the environment.  

Your partnership fuels groundbreaking research, capacity-building, and on-the-ground solutions that improve nutrition, livelihoods, and environmental resilience across the globe.  Whether you’re interested in supporting a specific region, thematic area, or capacity-building fellowship, we make it easy to direct your contribution and see the difference it makes. 

Our research ranges from: 

  • Making livestock, aquaculture, and fisheries more productive resilient, and sustainable
  • In Burkina Faso,  educating on the perceived belief that children who eat eggs will become thieves.
  • Using cactus to improve livestock and provide biogas so Maasai women in Kenya can cook safely at home and avoid wild animals

Your support can also give a student an opportunity to take their first international trip and support efforts to improve ?food security:

  • "What struck me most was the unwavering dedication of the smallholder Tanzanian farmers. They are hungry for knowledge and eager to improve their practices. They know the land and the animals. But there is a major gap when it comes to access to modern farming practices and information that could be applied to their context."

—  Onan Martinez, Ph.D. '25.

When you bring additional fields into a conversion, Quickbase often finds inconsistencies. For example, say you're converting your Companies column into its own table. One company, Acme Corporation, has offices in New York, Dallas and Portland. So, when you add the City column to the conversion, Quickbase finds three different locations for Acme. A single value in the column you're converting can only match one value in any additional field. Quickbase needs you to clean up the extra cities before it can create your new table. To do so, you have one of two choices:

  • If you want to create three separate Acme records (Acme-New York, Acme-Dallas and Acme-Portland) click the Conform link at the top of the column.
  • If the dissimilar entries are mistakes (say Acme only has one office in New York and the other locations are data-entry errors) go back into your table and correct the inconsistencies—in this case, changing all locations to New York. Then try the conversion again.
