Production ecology and conservation biology have long focused on providing the knowledge base for intensive food production and biodiversity conservation, respectively. With increasing global food insecurity and continuing biodiversity decline, we show that the largely separate development of the...


Brussaard, LijbertCaron, P.Campbell, Bruce M.Lipper, LeslieMainka, SRabbinge, RudyBabin, D.Pulleman, M[Reconciling biodiversity conservation and food security: scientific challenges for a new agriculture]Reconciling biodiversity conservation and food security: scientific challenges for a new agriculture

Tidal effect and salinity intrusion are two defining characteristics of inland coastal zones, causing, respectively, complex variations in water levels and flows in river and canal networks, and serious problems for agriculture and freshwater fishery, but bringing significant benefits for brackis...

This research is aimed at investigating the effect of different particle sizes of sand for the dewatering of faecal sludge with respect to the dewatering time, contaminant load in the percolate, rate of clogging and quantity of biosolids produced. Three filter media FM1, FM2 and FM3 were used to ...


Kuffour, A.R.Awuah, E.Anyemedu, F.O.K.Strauss, M.Kone, D.Cofie, Olufunke O.[Effect of using different particle sizes of sand as filter media for dewatering faecal sludge]Effect of using different particle sizes of sand as filter media for dewatering faecal sludge

This paper examines the impacts of climate change on cassava production in Africa, and questions whether cassava can play an important role in climate change adaptation. First, we examine the impacts that climate change will likely have on cassava itself, and on other important staple food crops ...


Jarvis, AndyRamírez Villegas, JuliánHerrera Campo, Beatriz VanessaNavarro-Racines, Carlos E.[Is cassava the answer to African climate change adaptation?]Is cassava the answer to African climate change adaptation?

Recovery of the organic fraction of municipal waste for peri-urban agriculture could contribute to the improvement of environmental sanitation and increase agricultural productivity in Sub-Saharan Africa. However, municipal waste co-compost (Co) has low nitrogen (N) content. Therefore, this study...

Achieving sustainable food security and increased farm income will depend on how efficient production systems are in converting available inputs to produce outputs. Using data from Malawi, we estimate a Bayesian directional technology distance function to examine the relationship between farm siz...
