Global Climate Regions for Cassava
https://hdl.handle.net/10568/109500
Abstract
This map shows global climate regions for cassava cultivation. Maps were developed separately for Asia, Africa and Latin America based on Carter et al. 1992. The maps were combined into a single map for the tropical and subtropical regions of the world. The determination of the climate regions is based on mean growing season temperature, number of dry season months, daily temperature range and seasonality. (2002-02-11)

https://hdl.handle.net/10568/110554
Abstract
As part of the project “Developing Gender
Indicators in Agriculture,” we conducted a literature
review in order to understand how research and
agricultural development projects in Latin America
measure women’s empowerment and gender
inequalities. The research allowed us to conduct
a close examination of the theoretical concepts
and the methodologies employed, and the way in
which both of these are linked…

Non-responsiveness of crops to fertilizers under some soils in sub-Saharan Africa
https://hdl.handle.net/10568/108554
Abstract
Low productivity of agriculture observed in different parts of sub-Saharan Africa is threatening food security in the region. Decades of production with mostly application of small amounts of inorganic fertilizers (mostly macronutrients) and scarce organic resources in the context of integrated soil fertility management (ISFM) result in nutrient mining of secondary and micronutrients in majority of…

Abstract
The population of Latin America and the Caribbean increased from 175 million in 1950 to 515 million in 2000. Where did this growth occur? What is the magnitude of change in different places? How can we visualize the geographic dimensions of population change in Latin America and the Caribbean? We compiled census and other public domain information to analyze both temporal and geographic changes in population in the region. Our database…
