In African smallholder agriculture, improved farm-scale understanding of the interaction between the household, crops, soils and livestock is required to develop appropriate strategies for improving productivity. A combination of models was used to analyse land use and labour allocation strategie...


Zingore, ShamieGonzález Estrada, E.Delve, Robert J.Herrero, Mario T.Dimes, John P.Giller, Ken E.[An integrated evaluation of strategies for enhancing productivity and profitability of resource-constrained smallholder farms in Zimbabwe]An integrated evaluation of strategies for enhancing productivity and profitability of resource-constrained smallholder farms in Zimbabwe

We outline the use of the IMPACT (Integrated Modelling Platform for mixed Animal Crop systems) tool in exploring the trade offs around farming livelihoods activities in smallholder crop livestock systems in Kenya. The tool was used to collect information relating to the characteristics of the far...

The objective of this work was to determine the applicability of the dry-weight-rank (DWR) method for evaluating the botanical composition of forest understorey vegetation. An analysis of plant species abundance was carried out, and instead of ranking the three most abundant species, as is common...

Delve, Robert J.González Estrada, E.Dimes, John P.Amede, TilahunWickama, J.Zingore, ShamieHerrero, Mario T.[Evaluation of a Farm-Level Decision Support Tool for Trade-off and Scenario Analysis for Addressing Food Security, Income Generation and NRM]Evaluation of a Farm-Level Decision Support Tool for Trade-off and Scenario Analysis for Addressing Food Security, Income Generation and NRM

Livestock are recognized as essential assets for the livelihoods of poor farmers in the mixed crop-livestock systems throughout the tropics, while feed resources have been identified as an important constraint to their productivity. Two international agricultural research institutes, CIMMYT and ...

González Estrada, E.Fawcett, R.H.Herrero, Mario T.[Ecoregional modelling of sheep farming in Latin America: Proposed methodology for integrated communal resource management]Ecoregional modelling of sheep farming in Latin America: Proposed methodology for integrated communal resource management

In the three major maize producing countries in the East African region of Kenya, Tanzania and Ethiopia, up to 44% of the dietary calorie requirements is provided by maize. It is also recognized that livestock are an essential asset of poor farmers in the mixed crop-livestock systems in this regi...
