Detection of open-air weekly markets using remote sensing techniques
https://hdl.handle.net/10568/163134
Abstract
Open-air markets play a vital role in food security, nutrition, and local economies, yet their spatiotemporal dynamics remain poorly understood. This study explores the use of Sentinel-1 SAR data to detect open-air markets operating weekly by identifying consistent changes in backscatter properties. The method was tested in regions with known market locations, including San Francisco el Alto, Guatemala, and Montpellier,…

Error 404, farmer not found: Why agricultural information services must consider how smallholders use their phones
https://hdl.handle.net/10568/155122
Abstract
Numerous barriers hinder mobile information
services in delivering information effectively to
smallholder farmers. Many of these barriers can be
explained by farmers’ habits in using their phones.
Therefore, carefully considering how exactly
farmers use their phones in specific local context
is crucial to mitigate behavior-related barriers.
We describe 18 potential behavioral…

Abstract
Women and girls (WGs) have important roles in making agrifood systems more climate-resilient. However, systematic inequalities in access to resources, technologies, information, services, and networks reduce their capacity to adapt to and mitigate climate change – with implications for the wellbeing of WGs and their households and the sustainability of agrifood systems.
