How can African agriculture adapt to climate change: Climate variability and maize yield in South Africa por Akpalu, Wisdom, Hassan, Rashid M., Ringler, Claudia

“…The scientific community has established that the temperature in South Africa increased significantly between 1960 and 2003 (by 0.13 degrees Celsius), and further temperature increases and changes in the quantity and pattern of rainfall are expected despite any attempts by the international community to reduce greenhouse gas emissions. Although the maize plant is quite hardy and adaptable to harsh conditions, warmer temperatures and lower levels of precipitation could have detrimental effects on yields, thereby increasing food insecurity in the region. …”

Emerging trends and advancements in the processing of dairy whey for sustainable biorefining por Goyal, Chhaya, Dhyani, Priya, Rai, Dinesh Chandra, Tyagi, Swati, Dhull, Sanju Bala, Sadh, Pardeep Kumar, Duhan, Joginder Singh, Saharan, Baljeet Singh

“…Increased milk production has boosted the market of milk-driven products, and as a result, the by-product production has also increased, which is a challenge to dispose of. Whey, a cheese by-product, is also increasing yearly, and its disposal in water bodies is responsible for water pollution and thus is an issue for the dairy sector. …”

Genomic signatures of domestication and adaptation during geographical expansions of rice cultivation por Zheng, Xiaoming, Pang, Hongbo, Wang, Junrui, Yao, Xuefeng, Song, Yue, Li, Fei, Lou, Danjing, Ge, Jinyue, Zhao, Zongyao, Qiao, Weihua, Kim, Sung-Ryul, Ye, Guoyou, Olsen, Kenneth M., Liu, ChunMing, Yang, Qingwen

“…After domestication, the expansions of rice landraces into the present-day range required a diverse array of adaptations to local environments, which included changes in daylight sensitivity, expanded thermal tolerance (for excess cold and heat), adaptations to water availability (drought and waterlogging), and resistance to biotic stresses (Garris et al., 2005; Glaszmann, 1987). …”

Major Factors Affecting Cooked Milled Rice Hardness and Cooking Time por Juliano, Bienvenido O., Perez, Consuelo M.

“…The spread in cooked‐rice hardness values was higher at a water:rice ratio of 1.9 (68% water) than at 2.65 (75% water), which was equivalent to the water content of rice cooked in excess water for an optimum cooking time. Cooking time correlated better with starch final gelatinization temperature (r=0.75*) than with surface area per gram (r=−0.49) confirming the results of earlier kinetic studies that cooking rate was mainly influenced by the reactivity of the grain constituents with water.…”

“…As the world’s seventh most climate risk-affected country, with 185 extreme events recorded and 0.38 fatalities per 100,000 inhabitants over the past two decades, Bangladesh must adapt rapidly to climate change while simultaneously accessing cleaner, more efficient technologies that support development, leverage co-benefits (such as in health, air and water quality) and limit emissions. The Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) predicts that climate change-induced impacts could result in a 10% decline in rice production and a substantial 30% reduction in wheat production in Bangladesh by 2050 (IPCC, 2007).…”
