Determinants of vulnerability of bean growing households to climate variability in Colombia
Climate-smart agriculture (CSA) is widely promoted as an approach for reorienting agricultural development under the realities of climate change. Prioritising research-for-development activities is crucial, given the need to utilise scarce resources as effectively as possible. However, no framewo...

El cambio climático probablemente tendrá impactos significativos en el sector agropecuario en Colombia, responsable
de más de una décima parte del PIB del país y fuente de empleo para más de una quinta parte de su población. Los
análisis indican que para el 2050 es probable que se presenten aumen...
The farms of the future (FOTF) approach is an interactive climate adaptation, knowledge sharing and learning experience that transforms climate forecasts into field-based realities by physically taking participants on a journey to areas that already experience climatic conditions that represent p...

Substantial evidence now exists suggesting that agricultural yields will have to increase significantly in order to meet food needs during the 21st century. One such way of increasing yields is to develop high yielding cultivars through crop improvement. This Working Paper summarises the results ...

Perennial horticultural crop production is sensitive to temperature, water availability, solar radiation, air pollution, and CO2. The value of perennial horticultural crops is derived from not only the quantity but also the quality of the harvested product. Perennial crop production is not easily...
