Current projections suggest that the impacts of warmer climates on smallholder production by the middle of this century, are excpected to be mainly negative. Both the livelihoods and food security of smallholder households can be improved through suitable strategies for handling climate- induced ...

The global change research community has recognized that new pathway and scenario concepts are needed to implement impact and vulnerability assessment that is logically consistent across local, regional and global scales. For impact and vulnerability assessment, new socio-economic pathway and sce...

Nitrogen (N), being the most critical and essential nutrient for plant growth, largely determines the productivity in both extensive- and intensive- grassland systems. Nitrification and denitrification processes in the soil are the primary drivers generating reactive-N: NO3-, N2O, and NO, and is ...

The Multipurpose Tree (MPT) species can fit into the farming systems of the East African region where low agricultural productivity, widespread land degradation and hence a diminishing capacity to support the growing human and livestock population are major problems. GIS has been used to develop ...
