Journal Article 2003

Autor: O'Brien, R. Peters, Michael Cook, Simon E. Corner, Robert J.

Intensification is a key strategy for smallholder farmers in Central America, and improved forages can play a significant role. To facilitate adoption of forages a spatial decision support system (SDSS) is under development to target forage species to particular biophysical, socio-economic and ma...

The authors analysed livelihood conditions in 10 river basins over three continents to identify generalizable links between water, agriculture and poverty. There were signi cant variations in hydrological conditions, livelihood strategies and institutions across basins, but also systematic patter...

We compare water availability, water use, water productivity and poverty across the diverse river basins studied by the CGIAR Challenge Program on Water and Food. Water productivity tends to be higher in drier areas and where livestock grazing is integrated with rainfed crop production. We find t...

Journal Article 2004

Autor: Pringle, MJ Cook, Simon E. McBratney, AB

This is a two-part paper concerned with the role of field-scale experiments in site-specific crop management (SSCM). Part I is a general introduction to experimental design for SSCM, while Part II focuses on applied analysis. All references are listed at the end of Part II. In Part I, we list the...

Autor: Douthwaite, Boru Álvarez, S. Cook, Simon E. Davies, R. George, Pamela Howell, J. Mackay, R. Rubiano, J.

The Challenge Program on Water and Food pursues food security and poverty alleviation through the efforts of some 50 researchfor-evelopment projects. These involve almost 200 organizations working in nine river basins around the world. An approach was developed to enhance the developmental impact...

This article present a Bayesian probabilistic method to support out-scaling of technologies from pilot projects. The method is applied to aerobic rice, a water-saving technology with probable global potential. The method assumes that areas similar to pilot sites are more likely to adopt than thos...

Agriculture is inherently risky. Drought is a particularly troublesome hazard that has a documented adverse impact on agricultural development. A long history of decision-support tools have been developed to try and help farmers or policy makers manage risk. We offer site-specific drought insuran...
