Abstract
La economía peruana ha experimentado un sostenido crecimiento en la última década, a la par del sector agropecuario. Por su parte, la tasa de crecimiento del valor de la producción de arroz estuvo por encima de la tasa de crecimiento del PIB Nacional y Agropecuario hasta el 2009, debido a un incremento sustancial en la superficie sembrada y los rendimientos. Tras una baja en 2010, la tasa de crecimiento se redujo y se proyecta…

Abstract
Si bien el PIB de Panamá ha crecido sostenidamente en los últimos años, la contribución de la agricultura a la economía nacional ha reducido. Según datos de la FAO (2016), la tasa de crecimiento del valor de la producción de arroz y del PIB agropecuario fue la misma del 2005 al 2008, año a partir del cual el PIB agropecuario empezó a decrecer gradualmente; mientras la tasa de crecimiento del valor de la producción incremento en…

Abstract
Researchers and decision-makers lack a shared understanding of resilience, and practical applications in environmental resource management are rare. Here, we define social-ecological resilience as a property of social-ecological systems that includes at least three main characteristics — resistance, recovery and robustness (the ‘three Rs’). We define socio-economic resilience…

Mid density SNP panel design for the Urochloa interspecific breeding program
https://hdl.handle.net/10568/180672
Abstract
Here we describe the development of a mid-density (~5K) SNP panel specifically designed for genomic selection in interspecific Urochloa hybrids. The panel was designed using high-quality variant data generated from multiple genotyping assays representative of the CIAT breeding population, including DArT-reseq–based datasets, and was refined through systematic filtering for marker quality, minor allele frequency (…

Farmer preferences for sustainable intensification in silvopastoral systems
https://hdl.handle.net/10568/180690
Abstract
Silvopasture has potential for mitigating livestock production impacts. However, many of its benefits accrue as public goods, which can limit farmer adoption. To overcome these constraints, it is important to understand farmers’ preferences for technology adoption, adoption barriers, and the incentives required.
This Brief reports the results of a choice experiment examining farmer preferences for adopting…

Abstract
The gender, agriculture, and natural resource management trajectory is transitioning into seeking transformative change (McDougall et al. 2021) through gender transformative approaches (GTAs). We need to understand how to define and design GTAs in order to produce more evidence, by their implementation, on the role of GTAs. This document focuses on the GTA design phase and has seven sections: (1) elements of definitions, (2)…
