Ensuring an adequate food supply in systems that protect environmental quality and conserve natural resources requires productive and resource-efficient cropping systems on existing farmland. Meeting this challenge will be difficult without a robust spatial framework that facilitates rapid evalua...


Edreira, J.I.R.Cassman, Kenneth G.Hochman, Z.Ittersum, Martin K. vanBussel, Lenny G. J. vanClaessens, LievenGrassini, P.[Beyond the plot: technology extrapolation domains for scaling out agronomic science]Beyond the plot: technology extrapolation domains for scaling out agronomic science

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...

Numerous studies have been published during the past two decades that use simulation models to assess crop yield gaps (quantified as the difference between potential and actual farm yields), impact of climate change on future crop yields, and land-use change. However, there is a wide range in qua...


Grassini, PatricioBussel, Lenny G. J. vanWart, Justin vanWolf, JoostClaessens, LievenYang, HaishunBoogaard, H.Groot, Hugo deIttersum, Martin K. vanCassman, Kenneth G.[How good is good enough? Data requirements for reliable crop yield simulations and yield-gap analysis]How good is good enough? Data requirements for reliable crop yield simulations and yield-gap analysis

Accurate estimation of yield gaps is only possible for locations where high quality local data are available, which are, however, lacking in many regions of the world. The challenge is how yield gap estimates based on location-specific input data can be used to obtain yield gap estimates for larg...

Yield gap analysis, which evaluates magnitude and variability of difference between crop yield potential (Yp) or water limited yield potential (Yw) and actual farm yields, provides a measure of untapped food production capacity. Reliable location-specific estimates of yield gaps, either derived f...

What are the key factors that contribute to household-level food security? What lessons can we learn from food secure households? What agricultural options and management strategies are likely to benefit female-headed households in particular? This paper addresses these questions using a unique d...
