Capabilities of Landsat 5 Thermatic Mapper data in regional mapping and characterization of inland valley agroecosystems in West Africa by Thenkabail, Prasad S., Nolte, C.

“…The technique involving a ratio image of TM4/TM7 (red), TM4/TM3 (green) and TM4/TM2 (blue) when displayed in a magnifying factor of one or greater provided the single best enhancement and display technique for mapping inland valley bottoms (see illustrations in figures 4, 5 and 11). A combination of this technique with two other image enhancement techniques, involving a false colour composite (FCC) of TM4 (red), TM3 (green) and TM5 (blue) and a ratio RGB (red-green-blue) image of TM4/TM5, TM4/TM3 and TM4/TM1, improved the results significantly. …”

Dairy development in Kenya: the past, the present and the future by Thorpe, W.R., Muriuki, H.G., Omore, Amos O., Owango, M.O., Staal, Steven J.

“…As infrastructure develops, markets become more efficient and urban consumers develop stronger preferences for pasteurised milk, the advantages of proximity will be reduced and production may well move away from intensive peri-urban systems and shift to more extensive systems (as the New Zealand dairy industry illustrates on a global scale). Until these infra-structural improvements occur, and because of the ready availability of cheap human capital (labour) and the relative expense of financial capital, smallholder dairy production and informal raw milk marketing are likely to predominate for the foreseeable future. …”

Explicit engagement principles support the performance of agroecological living landscapes (ALLs) in terms of fostering transdisciplinary research and the co-design of solutions. P... by Fuchs, Lisa Elena, Triomphe, Bernard, Navarrete Cruz, Angela, Bergamini, Nadia, Piraux, Marc, Chimonyo, Vimbayi

“…Considering the role of principle-based guidance, we find that a greater degree of engagement with the six Principles of Engagement in the ALL emergence process contributes to a greater likelihood of actual co-design being fostered, which is understood as the realization of the ALL’s purpose as a transformational vehicle in support of agroecological transitions. Our research illustrates that ALLs can function as organizational vehicles that challenge the status quo, help to redistribute power, and foster co-learning and the co-design of innovations. …”

Soil data for yield gap assessment and soil suitability index for sustainable intensification by Claessens, Lieven, Cassman, Kenneth G., Wart, Justin van, Grassini, Patricio, Vanlauwe, Bernard, Ittersum, Martin K. van, Bussel, Lenny G. J. van, Boogaard, H., Stoorvogel, J.J., Wolf, Joost, Yang, Haishun

“…The index would also include measures of existing soil constraints (e.g. toxicities, salinity, etc). We illustrate the use of the index by combining it with geospatially explicit methodologies for assessing yield gaps that are currently being developed in the Global Yield Gap Atlas project (www.yieldgap.org). …”
