Small-scale farmers in a 1.5 oC future: The importance of local social dynamics as an enabling factor for implementation and scaling of climate-smart agriculture por Martínez Barón, Deissy, Orjuela, Guillermo, Renzoni, Giampiero, Loboguerrero Rodriguez, Ana María, Prager, Steven D.

“…This review article offers perspective on this issue and highlights two key gaps in the literature: (i) understanding of factors related to the uptake of adaptation practices with co-benefits for mitigation and, (ii) the role of social networks to better enable rapid, widespread implementation of CSA, the latter being critical to bringing CSA to scale. The systematic review treated literature on synergies between adaptation, mitigation and social networks in the rural sector, as well as case studies illustrating the importance of social networks in climate change interventions when addressing synergies in adaptation and mitigation. …”

Use of high density single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) arrays to assess genetic diversity and population structure of dairy cattle in smallholder dairy systems: The case of Girin... por Chagunda, Mizeck G.G., Mujibi, F.D.N., Dusingizimana, Théogéne, Kamana, O., Cheruiyot, E., Okeyo Mwai, Ally

“…The average heterozygosity estimates were highest (0.38 ± 0.13) for Rwandan dairy cattle and lowest for Gir and N'Dama (0.18 ± 0.19 and 0.25 ± 0.20, respectively). Systematic characterization of the genetic variation and diversity available may inform the formulation of sustainable improvement strategies such as targeting and matching the genotype of cows to productivity goals and farmer profile and hence reducing the negative impact of genotype by environment interaction.…”
