Autor: Rurinda, J.P. Mapfumo, Paul Wijk, Mark T. van Mtambanengwe, F. Rufino, Mariana C. Chikowo, Regis Giller, Ken E.

Questions as to which crop to grow, where, when and with what management, will be increasingly challenging for farmers in the face of a changing climate. The objective of this study was to evaluate emergence, yield and financial benefits of maize, finger millet and sorghum, planted at different d...

Smallholder farms in eastern African tropical highlands have low soil greenhouse gas fluxes

Autor: Pelster, David E. Rufino, Mariana C. Rosenstock, Todd S. Mango, Joash Saiz, Gustavo Díaz Pinés, Eugenio Baldi, G. Butterbach-Bahl, Klaus

Few field studies examine greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions from African agricultural systems, resulting in high uncertainty for national inventories. This lack of data is particularly noticeable in smallholder farms in sub-Saharan Africa, where low inputs are often correlated with low yields, often...

Groundwater recharge rates and surface runoff response to land use and land cover changes in semi-arid environments

Autor: Owuor, Steven O. Butterbach-Bahl, Klaus Guzha, Alphonce Chenjerayi Rufino, Mariana C. Pelster, David E. Díaz Pinés, Eugenio Breuer, Lutz

The effects of land use and land cover (LULC) on groundwater recharge and surface runoff and how these are affected by LULC changes are of interest for sustainable water resources management. However, there is limited quantitative evidence on how changes to LULC in semi-arid tropical and subtropi...

Multi-gas and multi-source comparisons of six land use emission datasets and AFOLU estimates in the Fifth Assessment Report, for the tropics for 2000–2005

Autor: Román Cuesta, Rosa Maria Herold, Martin Rufino, Mariana C. Rosenstock, Todd S. Houghton, Richard A. Rossi, Simone Butterbach-Bahl, Klaus Ogle, Stephen Poulter, Benjamin Verchot, Louis V. Martius, Christopher Bruin, Sytze de

The Agriculture, Forestry and Other Land Use (AFOLU) sector contributes with ca. 20–25 % of global anthropogenic emissions (2010), making it a key component of any climate change mitigation strategy. AFOLU estimates, however, remain highly uncertain, jeopardizing the mitigation effectiveness of t...

Livestock production is important for food security, nutrition, and landscape maintenance, but it is associated with several environmental impacts. To assess the risk and benefits arising from livestock production, transparent and robust indicators are required, such as those offered by life cycl...

Land Use, Land Use History, and Soil Type Affect Soil Greenhouse Gas Fluxes From Agricultural Landscapes of the East African Highlands

Autor: Wanyama, Ibrahim Rufino, Mariana C. Pelster, David E. Wanyama, George N. Atzberger, Clement Asten, Piet J.A. van Verchot, Louis V. Butterbach-Bahl, Klaus

This study aims to explain effects of soil textural class, topography, land use, and land use history on soil greenhouse gas (GHG) fluxes in the Lake Victoria region. We measured GHG fluxes from intact soil cores collected in Rakai, Uganda, an area characterized by low‐input smallholder (<2 ha) f...

Smallholder African farms in western Kenya have limited greenhouse gas fluxes

Autor: Pelster, David E. Rufino, Mariana C. Rosenstock, Todd S. Mango, Joash Saiz, G. Díaz Pinés, Eugenio Baldi, G. Butterbach-Bahl, Klaus

Few field studies examine greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions from African agricultural systems resulting in high uncertainty for national inventories. We provide here the most comprehensive study in Africa to date, examining annual CO2, CH4 and N2O emissions from 59 plots, across different vegetation...

The contribution of sectoral climate change mitigation options to national targets: a quantitative assessment of dairy production in Kenya

Autor: Brandt, Patric Harold, Martin Rufino, Mariana C.

Reducing greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions from agriculture has become a critical target in national climate change policies. More than 80% of the countries in Sub-Saharan Africa (SSA) refer to the reduction of agricultural emissions, including livestock, in their nationally determined contribution ...

Transitions in agro-pastoralist systems of East Africa: Impacts on food security and poverty

Autor: Rufino, Mariana C. Thornton, Philip K. Karanja Ng'ang'a, Stanley Mutie, Ianetta Jones, Peter G. Wijk, Mark T. van Herrero, Mario T.

Climate-induced livelihood transitions in the agricultural systems of Africa are increasingly likely. There is limited evidence on what such transitions might look like. We carried out fieldwork in 12 sites in Kenya, Tanzania and Uganda to understand changes in farming systems in the recent past,...
