Is the link as described between the value chain development and technology generation component clear and well reasoned? If not, are there specific suggestions how to strengthen this link?

The link between the value chain development component and the technology generation component is clear and well reasoned.
Yes, the link between value chain development and technology generation is quite clear and well reasoned.
Yes, I think the link is well defined and responded.
I have some concerns with the following statement:
‘A significant share of our resources will therefore be devoted to gaining a systemic understanding of each value chain, evaluating its performance, and identifying opportunities that add value and improve their efficiency and benefits.’
Hopefully it means understanding not just the value chain itself but the external influences on it as it functions in its wider social and economic context. Empirial research on any system within one isolated context has risks in terms of extrapolating to other systems, but studies of processes and their external incluences give the fundings wider applicability which is what the CGIAR is all about in my view.
Yes, there is link between them and clearly identified, but it would be better with some good examples.
