Autor: Campbell, Bruce M. Vermeulen, Sonja J. Aggarwal, Pramod K. Corner-Dolloff, Caitlin Girvetz, Evan H. Loboguerrero Rodriguez, Ana María Ramírez Villegas, Julián Rosenstock, Todd S. Sebastian, Leocadio S. Thornton, Philip K. Wollenberg, Eva K.

Climate change will have far-reaching impacts on crop, livestock and fisheries production, and will change the prevalence of crop pests. Many of these impacts are already measurable. Climate impact studies are dominated by those on crop yields despite the limitations of climate-crop modelling, wi...

Mixed crop livestock systems in the developing world: present and future

Autor: Herrero, Mario T. Thornton, Philip K.

The world is under significant pressure. The human population is projected to increase by 30% over the next quarter of a century to reach 8.3 billion by 2030 (UNPP, 2008). During this period, in developing countries, there is likely to be a rapid increase in demand for livestock products, driven ...

Vulnerability, climate change and livestock - opportunities and challenges for the poor

Autor: Thornton, Philip K. Herrero, Mario T. Freeman, H.A. Okeyo Mwai, Ally Rege, J.E.O. Jones, Peter G. McDermott, John J.

Livestock systems in developing countries are characterised by rapid change, driven by factors such as population growth, increases in the demand for livestock products as incomes rise, and urbanisation. Climate change is adding to the considerable development challenges posed by these drivers of...

Adapting to climate change in the mixed crop and livestock farming systems in sub-Saharan Africa

Autor: Thornton, Philip K. Herrero, Mario T.

Mixed crop–livestock systems are the backbone of African agriculture, providing food security and livelihood options for hundreds of millions of people. Much is known about the impacts of climate change on the crop enterprises in the mixed systems, and some, although less, on the livestock enterp...

Integrated crop-livestock simulation models for scenario analysis and impact assessment

Autor: Thornton, Philip K. Herrero, Mario T.

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 underdeveloped. A wide variety of separate cro...

Quantifying declines in livestock due to land subdivision

Autor: Boone, Randall B. BurnSilver, S.V. Thornton, Philip K. Worden, J.S. Galvin, K.A.

In Kajiado District, Kenya, ranches held communally by Maasai are being subdivided into individually owned parcels. Livestock owners know that herds on parcels that are too small cannot be viable, but the decline in the capacity of parcels to support livestock has not been quantified. We used eco...

The evolution and evaluation of dairy cattle models for predicting milk production: an agricultural model intercomparison and improvement project (AgMIP) for livestock

Autor: Tedeschi, L.O. Cavalcanti, L.F.L. Fonseca M.A. Herrero, Mario T. Thornton, Philip K.

The contemporary concern about anthropogenic release of greenhouse gas (GHG) into the environment and the contribution of livestock to this phenomenon have sparked animal scientists’ interest in predicting methane (CH4) emissions by ruminants. We contend that improving the adequacy of mathematica...
