For agriculture to play a role in climate change mitigation strategies to reduce
emissions from inorganic nitrogen (N) fertilizer through a more balanced and
efficient use are necessary. Such strategies should align with the overarching
principle of sustainable intensification and will need to co...

Climate change has become a major concern in African agriculture, with farmers in many places struggling to cope with changing temperatures and rainfall patterns and increased flood and drought risks. For subsistence farmers, especially, these changes pose a serious threat to food security. At th...
Reducing greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions from agriculture is needed to meet global climate policy targets. A number of low-emission development (LED) options exist in agriculture, which globally emits 10–12% of GHG emissions. In paddy rice production, alternative wetting and drying (AWD) can reduc...
