Herrero, Mario T.Thornton, Philip K.Nouala, S.Notenbaert, An Maria OmerEricksen, Polly J.Leeuw, Jan de[Coping with drought and climate change in the pastoral sector in Sub-Saharan Africa: Policy considerations]Coping with drought and climate change in the pastoral sector in Sub-Saharan Africa: Policy considerations

Agriculture and food security are key sectors for intervention under climate change. Agricultural production is highly vulnerable even to 2C (low-end) predictions for global mean temperatures in 2100, with major implications for rural poverty and for both rural and urban food security. Agricultur...

Dwivedi, S.L.Siddique, K.H.M.Farooq, M.Thornton, Philip K.Ortiz, R.[Using biotechnology-led approaches to uplift cereal and food legume yields in dryland environments]Using biotechnology-led approaches to uplift cereal and food legume yields in dryland environments

The impacts of climate change are expected to be generally detrimental for agriculture in many parts of Africa. Overall, warming and drying may reduce crop yields by 10–20% to 2050, but there are places where losses are likely to be much more severe. Increasing frequencies of heat stress, drought...


Jones, Peter G.Thornton, Philip K.[Croppers to livestock keepers: livelihood transitions to 2050 in Africa due to climate change]Croppers to livestock keepers: livelihood transitions to 2050 in Africa due to climate change

Despite the fact that many smallholder farming systems in developing countries revolve around the interactions of crop and livestock enterprises, the modelling of these systems using combinations of detailed crop and livestock models is comparatively under-developed. A wide variety of separate cr...


Thornton, Philip K.Herrero, Mario T.[Integrated crop-livestock simulation models for scenario analysis and impact assessment]Integrated crop-livestock simulation models for scenario analysis and impact assessment

Historically, pastoral people were able to more freely use the services their semi-arid and arid ecosystems provide, and they adapted to changes in ways that improved their well-being. More recently, their ability to adapt has been constrained due to changes from within and from outside their com...
