“…In Uganda, climate projections based on the Global Climate Models (GCMs) used in the Fifth Assessment Report (AR5) of the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) indicate the possibility of an increase in the country’s near-surface temperature in the order of +2°C in the next 50 years, and +2.5°C in the next 80 years using Representative Concentration Pathway (RCP) 4.5 scenarios (Zinyengere et al., 2016). …”

Greenhouse gas emissions from sheep excreta deposited onto tropical pastures in Kenya por Zhu, Yuhao, Butterbach-Bahl, Klaus, Merbold, Lutz, Oduor, Collins, Gakige, Jesse K., Mwangi, Paul, Leitner, Sonja

“…Overall, N2O emission factors (EFs) did not vary across excreta type or seasons, but mean N2O EFs for dung (0.01%) and urine patches (0.02%) were only one tenth of the default EFs from the 2019 IPCC Refinement for dry climate. We did, however, find that bomas and watering troughs are sites of herd concentration that are important sources of GHG emissions in the landscape, and that emissions in these locations can remain elevated for months to years, especially when soil moisture is high. …”

Editorial: How to achieve a planetary health diet through system and paradigm change? por Kanerva, Minna, Efstathiou, Sophia, Béné, Christophe

“…Today’s food systems are responsible for an unsustainably large amount of negative impacts, including obesity and under-nutrition, global greenhouse gas emissions, deterioration of natural resources, erosion of biodiversity, and the suffering of billions of livestock animals (Weis, 2013; Gilson and Kenehan, 2018; Swinburn et al., 2019; Almond et al., 2020; Bovenkerk and Keulartz, 2021; IPCC, 2022). Shifting toward plant-rich eating, especially in the global North, is often identified as essential for climate change mitigation and adaptation, for restoring damaged ecosystems, alleviating the sixth mass extinction of species, and creating a more just and resilient food system. …”

Anticipatory versus post-shock transfers: Conceptual analysis por de Brauw, Alan, Bloem, Jeffrey R.

“…Climate shocks are becoming increasingly prevalent because of climate change (IPCC, 2023). Moreover, these climate shocks have more potential to negatively affect populations of low- and middle-income countries, as these populations are more likely to be employed in or around agriculture for income generation, which is particularly vulnerable to climate change (Gitz et al., 2016; Clarke et al., 2022). …”

Enteric methane emission factor for dairy farming in Peru por Fernandez, Melisa, Fuentes Navarro, Eduardo, Viera Valencia, Mario Agustín, Llacsa, Javier, Carrasco Chilón, William Leoncio, Altamirano, Wilman, Romero Delgado, Gelver, Ayala, Richard, Vela-Alvarado, Jorge Washinton, Zegarra Paredes, Jorge Luis, Molina-Botero, Isabel Cristina, Gómez, Carlos

“…The objective of this study was to determine the enteric methane (CH4) emission factor (EF) at the national level for Peruvian dairy cattle following the IPCC Tier II (2006, 2019) methodology. Data were collected from seven regions of Peru and classified according to the type of feeding as intensive, semi-intensive or extensive. …”

A bottom-up framework for assessing greenhouse gas emissions and mitigation potential in food systems por Kakai, L.F., Noufa, C.K., Sapkota, T.B., Corbeels, M., Choptiany, J.M.H.

“…To enhance transparency and decision relevance, it embeds explicit uncertainty characterization consistent with IPCC good practice principles. Overall, this framework supports national reporting, subnational climate planning, and the development of credible, implementable mitigation pathways aligned with NDCs and long-term low-emission development strategies.…”

Rice and global climate change por Wassmann, Reiner, Nelson, Gerald C., Peng SB, Sumfleth K, Jagadish, Krishna S.V., Hosen Y, Rosegrant, Mark W.

“…The effects of these changing conditions on agriculture are already being seen, yet there are still considerable gaps in our knowledge of how agricultural systems will be affected directly or indirectly by the changing climate, and what implications these changes will have for rural livelihoods (IPCC 2007). Climate change gives an additional burden to the world’s agricultural and natural resource systems that must already cope with the growing food demand driven by population growth and higher incomes in developing countries. …”

Impact of climate change on water resources and potential adaptations for Indian agriculture por Sharma, Bharat R.

“…Although there is a lack of adequate scientific evidence on regional scales, a number of recent observational and modelling studies do suggest that the climate is changing.

Carbono orgánico del suelo en tres sistemas de producción ganadera del Valle del Patía – Colombia por Morales Velasco, Sandra, Cotacio, Elver Julián, Vivas Quila, Nelson José, Gutiérrez Solís, Jhon Freddy, Albán López, Noé, Peters, Michael, Hincapié Carvajal, Belisario

“…Pero las reservas se pueden perder dependiendo del uso y manejo; estimándose que los ecosistemas agrícolas han liberado hasta un 75 % del COS hacia la atmosfera generando impactos negativos (desertización, clima, baja productividad) sobre la tierra. De acuerdo al IPCC (2006) hay prácticas que favorecen la acumulación de COS (rotación de cultivos, incremento de la materia orgánica, mulching, entre otros) por esta razón y con el propósito de establecer estrategias de manejo que contribuyan a la sostenibilidad de la producción ganadera en el Valle del Patía, se muestrearon suelos de tres sistemas de acuerdo al tipo de pastura y se analizó el contenido de carbono orgánico (Walkley y Black), forraje establecido y el manejo realizado en cada uno de ellos.…”
