Quantifying environmental impacts of the Climate Smart Agricultural practices tested in two Ethiopian Woredas por Damerau, Kerstin

“…To do so, we calculated yield differences of major crops grown by both adopting and non-adopting farms as basis for assessing associated deviations in land use, water use efficiency, overall (and where applicable irrigation) water use as well as greenhouse gas emissions. After one year, relative differences in median crop yields between specific practices and practice combinations showed very mixed results in both regions. …”
