Healthy animals for healthy food por Wieland, Barbara

“…In fact, it undermines the wide range of livestock-related benefits (including resilience, power and fertilizer), and exacerbates negative livestock externalities such as increased greenhouse gas emission per kilo of livestock product, and fosters disease emergence and over-reliance on veterinary drugs. Climate change and rapidly changing livestock production systems are key drivers for emerging diseases and changes in distribution and impact of currently endemic and epidemic diseases, asking for predictive models and efficient early warning systems. …”

Prioritizing climate-smart agriculture practices in Western Kenya. por Mwongera, Caroline, Mwungu, Chris Miyinzi, Kinyua, Ivy Wambui, Karanja Ng'ang'a, Stanley

“…Assessing practices against the CSA pillars helps to ensure that prioritized practices can also provide win–win or co-benefits to climate change adaptation and mitigation. Implementing this study was a way of testing the CSA prioritization framework developed by CIAT in 2014, which led to the development of a revised CSA prioritization process.…”
