Climate-Smart Livestock Interventions in West Africa: A Review by Amole, Tunde A., Ayantunde, Augustine A.

“…The livestock sector is one of the major contributors in agriculture, by some estimates contributing up to 18% of the global greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions. Of this, about one third is reported to be due to land use change associated with livestock production, another one third is nitrous oxide from manure and slurry management, and roughly 25% is attributed to methane emissions from ruminant digestion. …”

Use of modelling tools to assess climate change impacts on smallholder oil seed yields in South Africa by Kephe, P.N., Mkuhlani, S., Rusere, F., Chemura, A.

“…This study aims to present an approach that utilizes decision-making tools to assess the potential climate change impacts on groundnut, soybean and sunflower yields and the greenhouse gas emissions from the management of the crops. The Decision Support Tool for Agrotechnology Transfer (DSSAT v4.7), a dynamic crop model and the Cool Farm Tool, a GHG calculator, was used to simulate yields and estimate GHG emissions from these crops, respectively. …”
