Regional experience with Brachiaria: Asia, the South Pacific, and Australia
International Center for Tropical Agriculture (CIAT)
https://hdl.handle.net/10568/54889
Abstract
Brachiaria species occupy about 300,000 hectares in Asia, the South Pacific, and Australia. In Asia and the South Pacific, they are the most widely grown pasture grasses in the humid and subhumid tropics; in Australia, the area to which they are adapted is relatively small, but within it, Brachiaria occupies more than half the area of improved…

Smart Investments in Sustainable Food Production: Revisiting Mixed Crop-Livestock Systems
Abstract
Farmers in mixed crop-livestock systems produce about half of the worldâ??s food. In small holdings around the world, livestock are reared mostly on grass, browse, and nonfood biomass from maize, millet, rice, and sorghum crops and in their turn supply manure and traction for future crops. Animals act as insurance against hard times, and supply farmers with a source of regular income from sales of milk, eggs, and other products. Thus, faced with population…

Sustainable recommendation domains for scaling agricultural technologies in Tanzania
International Institute of Tropical Agriculture (IITA)
Abstract
Low adoption of sustainable intensification technologies hinders achievement of their potential impacts on increasing agricultural productivity. Proper targeting of locations to scale-out particular technologies is a key determinant of the rate of adoption. Targeting locations with similar biophysical and socio-economic characteristics significantly increases the probability of adoption…
