IMPACT: Generic household-level databases and diagnostics tools for integrated crop-livestock systems analysis

Autor: Herrero, Mario T. González Estrada, E. Thornton, Philip K. Quirós, Carlos Waithaka, M.M. Ruiz, R. Hoogenboom, Gerrit

We outline the need for generic crop-livestock systems databases and data standards for comprehensive systems analysis in developing countries. We also indicate the type of data that such databases should contain and review how they can be collected. We describe IMPACT, a database and analysis to...

Coping strategies in livestock-dependent households in East and southern Africa: a synthesis of four case studies

Autor: Thornton, Philip K. Boone, Randall B. Galvin, K.A. BurnSilver, S.B. Waithaka, M.M. Kuyiah, J. Karanja, S. González Estrada, E. Herrero, Mario T.

Integrated assessment seeks to combine models of the ecological as well as the social system to allow different scenarios to be tested in terms of their likely impacts on ecological functioning and household well-being. We outline such work undertaken in four case studies in East and southern Afr...

GOBLET: an open-source geographic overlaying database and query module for spatial targeting in agricultural systems

Autor: Quirós, Carlos Thornton, Philip K. Herrero, Mario T. Notenbaert, An Maria Omer González Estrada, E.

We describe the development of an open-source mapping and query utility. The impetus for its development came originally from the need to be able to locate, spatially, target populations of resource-poor livestock keepers in the developing world, and to identify livestock management interventions...

Carbon sequestration and farm income in West Africa: Identifying best management practices for smallholder agricultural systems in northern Ghana

Autor: González Estrada, E. Rodríguez, L.C. Walen, V.K. Naab, J.B. Koo, Jawoo Jones, James W. Herrero, Mario T. Thornton, Philip K.

The interest in agricultural soils as global storage of carbon has increased in recent years, along with the prospect of farmers' participation in payment schemes under the Clean Development Mechanism of the Kyoto protocol. Thus, a better understanding of agricultural practices that can increase ...

An integrated evaluation of strategies for enhancing productivity and profitability of resource-constrained smallholder farms in Zimbabwe

Autor: Zingore, Shamie González Estrada, E. Delve, Robert J. Herrero, Mario T. Dimes, John P. Giller, Ken E.

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...

Integrating models of relative abundance of species with the dry-weight-rank method for the botanical analysis of forest understorey vegetation

Autor: González Estrada, E. Fawcett, R.H. Herrero, Mario T.

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...

Identifying recommendation domains for targeting dual-purpose maize-based interventions in crop-livestock systems in East Africa

Autor: Notenbaert, An Maria Omer Herrero, Mario T. Groote, H. de You, Liangzhi González Estrada, E. Blümmel, Michael

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...
