Climate-smart agriculture (CSA) is widely promoted as an approach for reorienting agricultural development under the realities of climate change. Prioritising research-for-development activities is crucial, given the need to utilise scarce resources as effectively as possible. However, no framewo...

Valuation of ecosystem services is important for generating evidence for improved management of natural resources. Contingent Valuation (CV) is a common approach used to establish stakeholders’ stated preference by assessing their willingness to pay (WTP) or willingness to accept (WTA) monetary c...

Because of a growing and more affluent population, demand for agricultural products will increase rapidly over the coming decades, with serious implications for agricultural water demand. Symptoms of water scarcity are increasingly apparent, threatening ecosystem services and the sustainability o...

Soil erosion by water is a severe problem for sustainability of agricultural systems in the dryland regions of the Yellow River Basin. Conservation agriculture (featuring reduced or zero tillage, mulch retention, crop rotations and cover crops) offers a possible solution. Conservation agriculture...

Soil water content is the key factor that affect the agriculture production in northern arid regions of China. It is helpful to select proper tillage methods and improve water productivity based on the study of soil water content changing. Soil water content, water balance and water use efficienc...
