Over the past four decades, agricultural systems in the Greater Mekong Subregion (GMS) have largely evolved from a subsistence orientation toward commercial production, but the multi-faceted changes behind this evolution vary in substance and degree. Despite connoting economic progress, effects o...

Rusinamhodzi, LeonardWijk, Mark T. vanCorbeels, MarcRufino, Mariana C.Giller, Ken E.[Maize crop residue uses and trade-offs on smallholder crop-livestock farms in Zimbabwe: economic implications of intensification]Maize crop residue uses and trade-offs on smallholder crop-livestock farms in Zimbabwe: economic implications of intensification

Bioenergy crops are often classified (and subsequently regulated) according to species that have been evaluated as environmentally beneficial or detrimental, but in practice, management decisions rather than species per se can determine the overall environmental impact of a bioenergy production s...


Davis, S.C.Boddey, Robert M.Alves, B.J.R.Cowie, A.L.George, B.H.Ogle, S.M.Smith, PeteNoordwijk, Meine vanWijk, Mark T. van[Management swing potential for bioenergy crops]Management swing potential for bioenergy crops

African smallholder farming systems are complex, dynamic systems with many interacting biophysical subcomponents. In these systems the major inputs and outputs are managed by human agency – the farmers. To analyse potential developmental pathways of smallholder farming systems in sub-Saharan Afri...


Wijk, Mark T. vanTittonell, Pablo A.Rufino, Mariana C.Herrero, Mario T.Pacini, C.Ridder, N.A. deGiller, Ken E.[Identifying key entry-points for strategic management of smallholder farming systems in sub-Saharan Africa using the dynamic farm-scale simulation model NUANCES-FARMSIM]Identifying key entry-points for strategic management of smallholder farming systems in sub-Saharan Africa using the dynamic farm-scale simulation model NUANCES-FARMSIM

Evaluation of lifetime productivity is sensible to target interventions for improving productivity of smallholder dairy systems in the highlands of East Africa, because cows are normally not disposed of based on productive reasons. Feeding strategies and involuntary culling may have long-term eff...


Rufino, Mariana C.Herrero, Mario T.Wijk, Mark T. vanHemerink, L.Ridder, N.A. deGiller, Ken E.[Lifetime productivity of dairy cows in smallholder farming systems of the Central highlands of Kenya]Lifetime productivity of dairy cows in smallholder farming systems of the Central highlands of Kenya

Net ecosystem exchange (NEE) of C varies greatly among Arctic ecosystems. Here, we show that approximately 75 per cent of this variation can be accounted for in a single regression model that predicts NEE as a function of leaf area index (LAI), air temperature and photosynthetically active radiat...


Shaver, G.R.Rastetter, E.B.Salmon, V.Street, L.E.Weg, M.J. van deRocha, A.Wijk, Mark T. vanWilliams, M.[Pan-Arctic modelling of net ecosystem exchange of CO2]Pan-Arctic modelling of net ecosystem exchange of CO2

In this study we estimate yield gaps for mixed crop–livestock smallholder farmers in seven Sub-Saharan African sites covering six countries (Kenya, Tanzania, Uganda, Ethiopia, Senegal and Burkina Faso). We also assess their potential to increase food production and reduce the GHG emission intensi...

In this article, we discuss the ongoing Data Revolution in relation to climate action in agriculture. Data are highly relevant for climate action, as climate change makes current local knowledge increasingly irrelevant and requires smarter management of agricultural systems. We discuss five dat...

Eradicating hunger is a complex and multifaceted challenge, requiring evidence bases that can inform wide scale action, but that are also participatory and grounded to have local relevance and effectiveness. The Rural Household Multi-Indicator Surveys (RHoMIS) provides a broad assessment of house...
