Effects of local institutions on the adoption of agroforestry innovations: Evidence of farmer managed natural regeneration and its implications for rural livelihoods in the Sahel por Binam, Joachim N., Place, Frank, Djalal, A.A., Kalinganire, A.

“…The propensity score with continuous treatments was used to assess the effects of a set of covariates on FMNR as well as the impacts of that practice on income, cereal production and caloric intake using data collected from 1,080 rural households in Burkina Faso, Mali, Niger, and Senegal. This study demonstrated that regeneration of trees on farms, whereby farmers play an active role in the types of trees and their densities, is important as a practice and safety-net by providing cash income, caloric intake and diet, and crops supplements throughout dryland areas of West Africa. …”

Alternate phenotype–genotype selection for developing superior high-yielding irrigated rice lines por Moukoumbi, Y.D., El-Namaky, R., Djamana, K., Mbodj, D., Manneh, B.

“…The three top lines, ARS 563–286–16-1-1, ARS 563–286–5-1-1, and ARS 563–14–10-1-1, showed an increase of more than 10% grain yield over the best check, Sahel 108, which is widely cultivated in the Senegal River valley. The 16 markers linked to the target yield component traits can be used to fast-track breeding programs targeting rice productivity.…”

Pilot evaluation of the Index Based Flood Insurance in Bihar, India: Lessons of experiences por Aheeyar, Mohamed M. M., de Silva, Sanjiv, Senaratna Sellamuttu, Sonali

“…Advances in satellite technology and data analysis were integrated to develop index insurance products, which were piloted in different countries throughout the world such as India, Ethiopia, Senegal, and United States. The index insurance products help minimize the high transaction costs and have the potential to expand the reach of insurance policies to rural areas that were previously considered uninsurable (Swain and Patnaik, 2016; Smith and Watts, 2019). …”

Canopy microclimate and gas-exchange in response to irrigation system in lowland rice in the Sahel por Stuerz, S., Sow, A., Muller, B., Manneh, B., Asch, F.

“…In lowland rice production, water-saving irrigation technologies have been developed, but it has rarely been considered that the absence of a ponded water layer could change the field's microclimate due to the different thermal characteristics of water compared to air. At a site in the Senegal River valley, canopy and soil temperature as well as temperature at meristem level and relative humidity inside the canopy were observed in the presence and absence of a ponded water layer in an irrigated rice field. …”
