Harvesting hope for climate action and food systems in a grave new world
https://hdl.handle.net/10568/177961
Abstract
Multilateralism, as epitomized by Western liberal hegemony and the concomitant intergovernmental agreements and institutions set up after World War II, is in crisis. Reductions in development funding coupled with inadequate climate action and limited progress toward the Sustainable Development Goals do not bode well for the challenges that food systems are increasingly facing. In crisis lies opportunity, however. Here…

Enteric methane emissions from dairy systems in Kenya: A case study of Kenyan Rift Valley and Central Highlands regions
https://hdl.handle.net/10568/178627
Abstract
Kenya’s dairy sector contributes 12–14% of agricultural GDP but emits an estimated 12.3 Mt CO₂-eq annually, primarily from enteric methane. Reducing these emissions offers a significant mitigation opportunity. Improved feeding, especially through forages, can lower emission intensities while maintaining productivity. This study evaluated the mitigation potential of…

Integrating forage technologies on smallholder farms in the upland tropics
International Livestock Research Institute (ILRI)
https://hdl.handle.net/10568/27819
Abstract
In the past, adoption of forage technologies has been poor. This paper considers the reasons for this low level of adoption and how the situation has changed in recent years. Experiences, mostly in south-east Asia and some in east Africa, have shown that participatory approaches in the development of technology are the key to integration of forages…
