Potential of multipurpose forages to enhance mixed smallholder farming productivity and food security in Malawi
https://hdl.handle.net/10568/180091
Abstract
The livestock sector is integral to Malawi’s mixed farming systems, contributing 22–30% of GDP and employing over 80% of the labor force. However, a lack of scientific information on integrating mixed farming systems, coupled with inadequate stakeholder coordination, has hindered its potential to enhance farm productivity. This challenge is exacerbated by population growth, which…

Policy pathways for promoting climate resilient crop diversification in Kenya
https://hdl.handle.net/10568/180206
Abstract
Existing Kenyan food system policies highlight a need for adaptive capacity and crop diversification, although there is a need for evidence on the impacts of climate extremes on agriculture, and what levels of production will be sufficient to ensure nutrition security. We assess the potential for crop diversification to enhance food and nutrition security in Kenya by mid-century. Without expansion of agriculture…

Waterlogging response in BH_22 population of Urochloa humidicola
https://hdl.handle.net/10568/180231
Abstract
Among different forages, there have been some commercial grasses well characterized in tolerating the conditions of waterlogging soils, for example, Urochloa humidicola. This species has shown the maintenance of growth rate, leaf elongation, net photosynthesis, and leaf chlorophyll content (Dias-Filho & Carvalho, 2000). Despite this, variations in morphological traits, forage production and waterlogging tolerance level…

Seeds for needs: Unlocking Zambia's potential for forage seed production
In Zambia, the agricultural and livestock sector faces a major challenge. Smallholder farmers, largely dependent on rainfall, are affected by extreme climate events that increase drought, thus severely affecting all crops, creating scarcity, and rendering the quantity and quality of natural grasslands low. This decrease in production has gradually…
