Reproductive seasonality in African ungulates in relation to rainfall por Ogutu, Joseph O., Piepho, Hans-Peter, Dublin, Holly T.

“…Fecundity and recruitment rates among the African ungulates peak at intermediate levels of rainfall and are reduced at low or excessive levels of rainfall. Fecundity rate is most strongly positively correlated with rainfall pre-conception, during conception and during early gestation, followed by rainfall at about the time of parturition for all the grazers. …”

Rice value chain development in Fogera woreda based on the IPMS experience por Gebey, T., Berhe, Kahsay, Hoekstra, Dirk, Alemu, B.

“…In the rapid rural appraisal conducted by IPMS and various stakeholders in 2004/05, farmers in seasonally flooded areas wanted to increase their rice acreage by addressing bottlenecks in the value chain, in particular excessive weed growth. At the same time farmers in the upland areas were also interested in introducing rice into their farming system. …”

Accelerating the transformation of the rice sector in Burkina Faso: moving from technology to system-wide pathways por Kpadonou, G Esaie, Ganyo, Komla Kyky, Segnon, Alcade Christel, Dossou Yovo, Elliot R, Dicko, Mohamed, Sall, Abdou, Batieno, Benoit Joseph, Ndaw, Omar, Ouattara, Yabile Florence, Kane, Mahamadi, Lamien, Nieyidouba, Zougmore, Robert Bellarmin

“…The transformation of the rice sector in West Africa remains a strategic priority as rising consumption continues to outpace regional production, leading to persistent reliance on imports exceeding 15 million tons annually. Despite years of investments aimed at closing the yield gap, the rice sector has not undergone the structural transformation needed to achieve competitiveness, reduce climate and market vulnerability, and generate broader economic opportunities. …”

Greenhouse gas mitigation potential of the world’s grazing lands: Modeling soil carbon and nitrogen fluxes of mitigation practices por Henderson, Benjamin B., Gerber, Pierre J., Hilinski, T.E., Falcucci, A., Ojima, D.S., Salvatore, M., Conant, Richard T.

“…Conversely, N2O emissions from N fertilization exceeded soil C sequestration, in all regions. Our estimated potential for increasing C stocks though in grazing lands is lower than earlier worldwide estimates (Smith et al., 2007 and Lal, 2004), mainly due to the much smaller grazing land area over which we estimate mitigation practices to be effective. …”
