More than 265 million people are facing a five percent decrease in growing season duration in the next 40 years due to an increasingly variable and hotter climate sweeping across the globe. Climate change will affect all four aspects of ...

In sub-Saharan Africa and South Asia, the limited availability of climate data and networks for sharing information can serve as a constraint to agricultural research and development. The lack of basic understanding of earth processes needed to detect flaws in climate models and decide how best t...

The AgTrials database collects decades of agricultural field experiments to help understand and adapt to climate change impacts.

This document series compiles key indicators from the three levels of the baseline for each site. Indicators include: demography and basic site characteristics of each site, rainfall distribution, changes in farming practices and land management, income sources, food security and food sources, as...

In the early 2000s, the International Livestock Research Institute (ILRI) started developing a tool to capture key factors of farming systems in standardized, quantitative data sets, ready to feed into models. Their product, the Integrated Modelling Platform for Mixed Animal-Crop Systems (IMPACT)...

Tracking change is how you stay on the path to a goal. That’s why the CGIAR Research Program on Climate Change, Agriculture and Food Security (CCAFS) wants to measure how agricultural practices are evolving in response to climate change and other pressures. In 2010-2011 CCAFS worked with local pa...
