Forage-based livestock production plays a key role in national and regional economies, for food security and poverty alleviation, but is considered a major contributor to agricultural GHG emissions. While demand for livestock products is predicted to increase, there is political and societal pres...

Agriculture and livestock production are major contributors to greenhouse gas emissions. Foragebased systems dominate much of agriculture in the tropics, providing livelihoods to farmers but also affecting local and global environments. In this paper, we attempt to answer the question, how can fa...

Data from rural Malawi are used to assess the role of forests in rural household adaptation to climate variability, and to examine implications for adaptation to future climate change. Although forests do not currently play a role in anticipatory adaptation by rural households, they do appear imp...

This paper analyses water availability and use within and between the Challenge Program on Water and Food basins. It describes the main features of water demand and supply in the basins and indicates where there are deficits and opportunities for development of water resources. A typology of basi...
