Replication Data for: Risk perception and decision-making: do farmers consider risks from climate change?
https://hdl.handle.net/10568/100316
Abstract
Data were collected during interviews with experts and farmers in Cauca between July and October 2014. After finishing both interview series, we analyzed the differences in perception between experts and farmers. To aggregate the individual rankings, we calculated a weighted average based on the ranking of each element for the four questions. We compared the average experts’ rankings…

500m gridded historical and future climate surfaces for Risaralda, Colombia
https://hdl.handle.net/10568/89765
Abstract
The gridded yearly climate data (5-year moving averages) were developed from weather station observations (from IDEAM and Cenicafe) for the period 1980 to 2010, at 500 m spatial resolution, for monthly precipitation, monthly minimum temperature and maximum temperature, following the method of Hijmans et al. (2005). In areas with low station density and low interpolaton quality, weather observations were complemented…

Replication Data for: Priority regions for research on dryland cereals and legumes
https://hdl.handle.net/10568/76697
Abstract
This data set characterizes dryland systems and cereal and legume crops (Hyman et al., 2016). The data is a subset of a larger data set that characterizes the farming systems of John Dixon’s global farming systems framework and map (Dixon et al., 2001; Barona and Hyman, 2016). The data subset focuses on the following crops: chickpea, common bean, cowpea, faba bean, groundnut, lentils, pigeon pea, soybean,…

Climate Risk Vulnerability Assessment to inform sub-national decision making in Vietnam
https://hdl.handle.net/10568/91206
Abstract
This project was undertaken to develop and implement a pan tropical Climate Risk Vulnerability Assessment (CRVA) that can identify through an agricultural lens and at a fine resolution which parts of the country are most vulnerable to climate change. The CRVA is adaptable to the specific national context and also flexible to data limitations. Based on the academic literature and the latest crop and…

Replication Data for: Shoot and Root Traits Contribute to Drought Resistance in Recombinant Inbred Lines of MD 23-24 x SEA 5 of Common Bean
https://hdl.handle.net/10568/80919
Abstract
Traits related with drought resistance in recombinant inbred lines (RILs). A set of 121 bean genotypes (111 RILs, 2 parents, 8 checks) belonging to the Mesoamerican gene pool were evaluated under field conditions with two levels of water supply (irrigated and rainfed) over three seasons. To complement field studies, a greenhouse study was conducted…

Abstract
The gridded climate surfaces for Honduras (30-year average) were developed from weather station observations from different official sources (local, national and regional institutions) for the period 1981 to 2010 (latest period defined by WMO to calculate the climatological standard normal), at 30-seconds (1 Km2) spatial resolution, for monthly precipitation (prec), monthly minimum temperature…

Abstract
The data applies to ex-post analysis of improved bean variety adoption. The two provinces of Northern and Muchinga provinces in Zambia constitute the biggest area share planted to bean in the country. A total of 402 bean growing households were selected from 67 villages across seven districts for the survey using a two-stage cluster sample selection method…

Abstract
El arroz es un cultivo importante para la economía y el consumo nacional de Ecuador. Usualmente, se considera que este cultivo es de actividades masculinas y que las mujeres no cumplen roles en su producción. Teniendo en cuenta la poca información sobre género y arroz en este país, se ejecutó un análisis cualitativo de carácter exploratorio con el objetivo de describir los roles de las mujeres, en comparación al…

Abstract
Traits and genotypes related with resistance to intermittent and terminal drought stress. Three common bean elite lines (NCB 226, SEN 56, SER 125) were identified with superior levels of adaptation to both intermittent and terminal drought stress conditions. The greater performance of these lines under drought stress was…

Abstract
The International Rice Testing Program (IRTP) for Latin America was sponsored by the CIAT and IRRI, with funds from the United Nations Development Programme (UNDP). The testing program was formalized in 1976 with the object of evaluating at ClAT nurseries introduced from IRRI and the promising material developed by national programs in Latin America (during 1980 to 1993). From among this germplasm, the material considered most appropriate…

Abstract
CIAT systematically evaluates all germplasm accessions in diverse sites in Colombia, to obtain a broad characterization of adaptation to different soils and climates, resistance to many pests and diseases, and quality traits. The information is used primarily to select parents which can potentially contribute characters requested by national programs. Based on these evaluations, some generalized conclusions can be…
