Gotor, E.Caracciolo, F.Blundo Canto, Genowefa M.Al Nusairi, M.[Improving rural livelihoods through the conservation and use of underutilized species: evidence from a community research project in Yemen]Improving rural livelihoods through the conservation and use of underutilized species: evidence from a community research project in Yemen

Agricultural biodiversity has hitherto been valued almost exclusively as a source of traits that can be used in scientific breeding programs to improve the productivity of crop varieties and livestock breeds. We argue that it can make a far greater contribution to increased productivity. In parti...

One of the World`s greatest challenges is to secure sufficient and healthy food for all, and to do so in an environmentally sustainable manner. This review explores the interrelationships of food, health, and environment, and their role in addressing chronic micronutrient deficiencies, also known...

Efforts have been made in recent years to improve knowledge about soil greenhouse gas (GHG) fluxes from sub-Saharan Africa. However, data on soil GHG emissions from smallholder coffee-dairy systems have not hitherto been measured experimentally. This study aimed to quantify soil GHG emissions at ...


Ortiz Gonzalo, DanielNeergaard, Andreas deVaast, PhilippeSuárez-Villanueva, VíctorOelofse, MylesRosenstock, Todd S.[Multi-scale measurements show limited soil greenhouse gas emissions in Kenyan smallholder coffee-dairy systems]Multi-scale measurements show limited soil greenhouse gas emissions in Kenyan smallholder coffee-dairy systems

Runoff generated in the monsoon months in the upstream parts of the Ganges River basin (GRB) contributes substantially to downstream floods, while water shortages in the dry months affect agricultural production in the basin. This paper examines the potential for subsurface storage (SSS) in the G...

The impacts of climate change on crop yields, as projected by a slew of impact assessments carried out since the 1980s, have brought the issue of future food insecurity to the fore. A meta-analysis of ~27,000 data points from studies published over the last four decades reveals that at country le...

Global rice production systems face two opposing challenges: the need to increase production to accommodate the world's growing population while simultaneously reducing greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions. Adaptations to drainage regimes are one of the most promising options for methane mitigation in ...
