Local to regional-scale mechanisms behind successful climate services for agriculture in Latin America
https://hdl.handle.net/10568/175611
Abstract
The provision of climate services (CS) has grown at an unprecedented rate over the last decade in response to climate-related risks in several sectors of the global economy; this is especially true in agriculture. Several studies document lessons learnt from (un)successful climate services, and attempt to distil these into key principles, recommendations, or requirements. However, limited…

A simple age-structured, temperature-dependent population growth model of brown rice hopper (Nilaparvata lugens (Stal))
https://hdl.handle.net/10568/172786
Abstract
Brown rice hopper (BRH), a key insect pest to rice, is known can change its longevity and fecundity due to rising temperature. Here we modeled the response of BRH population growth to temperature using an age-structured population growth model, based on reported responses of BRH development time, survival, and fecundity to temperature. We applied this model to predict…

Farmer preferences for sustainable intensification in silvopastoral systems
https://hdl.handle.net/10568/180796
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…
