Abstract
In Uruguay, the varieties required by local and external markets are developed, using traditional breeding methods, by the Rice Breeding Program of the Instituto Nacional de Investigación Agropecuaria (INIA). Although these methods have been successful, recent studies have shown a yield plateau. As a complementary strategy, a…

Spatial analysis to support geographic targeting of genotypes to environments
International Maize and Wheat Improvement Center (CIMMYT)
Abstract
Crop improvement efforts have benefited greatly from advances in available data, computing technology, and methods for targeting genotypes to environments. These advances support the analysis of genotype by environment interactions (GEI) to understand how well a genotype adapts to environmental conditions. This paper reviews the use of spatial analysis to support crop improvement research…

Model-based estimation of above-ground biomass in the miombo ecoregion of Zambia
Center for International Forestry Research (CIFOR)
Abstract
Background Information on above-ground biomass (AGB) is important for managing forest resource use at local levels, land management planning at regional levels, and carbon emissions reporting at national and international levels. In many tropical developing countries, this information may be unreliable or at a scale too coarse for use at local levels. There is a vital need to provide estimates…

Conservation Agriculture and Livelihoods of Smallholder Farmers in Central Mozambique
Abstract
This article demonstrates how conservation agriculture impacts smallholder farmersâ?? livelihoods in Mozambique through increased crop productivity and yields, using primary data on smallholder farmers practicing conservation agriculture and others not using this technology from Nhanguo, Pumbuto, and Ruaca in Manica and Sofala provinces. Data analysis employs semiparametric propensity score matching methods. Direct correlations between conservation agriculture…

Heightened fire probability in Indonesia in non-drought conditions: the effect of increasing temperatures
Center for International Forestry Research (CIFOR)
Abstract
In Indonesia, drought driven fires occur typically during the warm phase of the El Niño Southern Oscillation. This was the case of the events of 1997 and 2015 that resulted in months-long hazardous atmospheric pollution levels in Equatorial Asia and record greenhouse gas emissions.Nonetheless, anomalously active fire seasons have also been observed in non-drought years.…

Is production intensification likely to make farm households food-adequate? A simple food availability analysis across smallholder farming systems from East and West Africa
Center for International Forestry Research (CIFOR)
Abstract
Despite considerable development investment, food insecurity remains prevalent throughout East and West Africa. The concept of ‘sustainable intensification’ of agricultural production has been promoted as a means to meet growing food needs in these regions. However, inadequate…
