Trade-offs and synergies between pastoral activities and ecosystem services: Valuation of carbon emissions mitigation strategies in livestock systems por Florez, Fernando, Louhaichi, Mounir, Yigezu, Yigezu Atnafe, Gonzalez Quintero, Ricardo, Notenbaert, An, Wane, Abdrahmane, Burkart, Stefan

“…Carbon storage and sequestration is an ecosystem service in livestock systems with cultivated forages, rangelands, and agro-silvopastoral systems. While humans, through consumption, put pressure on natural ecosystems, they also develop and introduce policy, institutional, and technological innovations, which have the potential to improve the carbon balance and mitigate climate change. …”

Improving agricultural water productivity through integrated termite management por Peden, Donald G., Swaans, Cornelis P.M., Mpairwe, D.R., Geleta, N., Zziwa, Emmanuel, Mugerwa, S., Taye, H., Legesse, H.

“…CPWF research demonstrated that rapid restoration of pasture production is possible by providing manure through night corralling of cattle prior to re-seeding termite affected rangeland in Uganda. In degraded Ethiopian and Ugandan croplands, preliminary results also suggest that application of maize or sorghum stover to growing maize crops reduces termite damage and associate yield losses. …”
