Prospects for improving irrigated agriculture in Southern Africa: linking water, energy and food

Autor: Mabhaudhi, T. Mpandeli, S. Nhamo, Luxon Chimonyo, V.G.P. Nhemachena, Charles Senzanje, A. Naidoo, D. Modi, A.T.

Increasing agricultural productivity has always been a prominent feature on the regional agenda due to a high incidence of food and nutrition insecurity. This review assessed the current status of irrigated agriculture in southern Africa from a water–energy–food (WEF) nexus perspective. Gaps and ...

An assessment of groundwater use in irrigated agriculture using multi-spectral remote sensing

Autor: Nhamo, Luxon Ebrahim, Girma Yimer Mabhaudhi, T. Mpandeli, S. Magombeyi, Manuel Chitakira, M. Magidi, J. Sibanda, M.

Declining water resources in dry regions requires sustainable groundwater management as trends indicate increasing groundwater use, but without accountability. The sustainability of groundwater is uncertain, as little is known about its extent and availability, a challenge that requires a quantit...

Improving water sustainability and food security through increased crop water productivity in Malawi

Autor: Nhamo, Luxon Mabhaudhi, T. Magombeyi, Manuel S.

Agriculture accounts for most of the renewable freshwater resource withdrawals in Malawi, yet food insecurity and water scarcity remain as major challenges. Despite Malawi’s vast water resources, climate change, coupled with increasing population and urbanisation are contributing to increasing wa...

Options for improving agricultural water productivity under increasing water scarcity in South Africa

Autor: Mabhaudhi, T. Mpandeli, S. Nhamo, Luxon Senzanje, A. Chimonyo, V. G. P. Modi, A.T.

South Africa is ranked among the thirty driest countries in the world, a challenge that is negatively affecting agricultural production. Other challenges such as population growth, rural-urban migration, changing food preferences and drought exacerbate pressure on agricultural water productivity....

A model to integrate and assess water-energy-food nexus performance: South Africa case study

Autor: Nhamo, Luxon Mabhaudhi, T. Mpandeli, S.

The main limiting factor impeding the operationalisation of the WEF nexus has been lack of metrics and tools to translate the concept into a fully-fledged operational framework to support policy and decision-making. This study developed a WEF nexus model by (i) defining WEF nexus sustainability i...
