Drought and heat affect common bean minerals and human diet—What we know and where to go por Losa, Alessia, Vorster, Juan, Cominelli, Eleonora, Sparvoli, Francesca, Paolo, Dario, Sala, Tea, Ferrari, Marika, Carbonaro, Marina, Marconi, Stefania, Camilli, Emanuela, Reboul, Emmanuelle, Waswa, Boaz Shaban, Ekesa Onyango, Beatrice, Aragão, Francisco, Kunert, Karl

“…Further discussed is how the application of modern “omics” tools contributes in common beans to higher drought/heat tolerance as well as to higher Fe and reduced PA content. Finally, possible future actions are discussed to develop new common bean varieties with both improved drought/heat tolerance and higher mineral (Fe) content.…”

ICTs to address information inefficiencies in food supply chains por Van Campenhout, Bjorn

“…Furthermore, I highlight some of the dangers of relying too much on ICT-mediated information, such as exclusionary networks, bias in crowdsourced data, and “fake news.” Finally, I explore why ICT applications that address information inefficiencies seem to be less successful than innovations that address other barriers to efficient and inclusive food supply chain development, such as risk or credit constraints.…”

Climate security policy coherence and awareness analysis: Philippines por Schapendonk, Frans, Scartozzi, Cesare Marco, Meddings, George, Melgar, Adriana, Laderach, Peter, Pacillo, Grazia

“…Several key demographic groups that are likely to be particularly exposed to climate-related security risks are moreover underrepresented within Philippine policy discourse, including small-holder farmers in post-conflict areas. Finally, we find limited evidence of cross-sectoral and cross-scalar integration amongst the policy sectors deemed critical for the coherent management of climate-related security risks. …”

Scaling-up agricultural innovations: Who should be targeted? por Bedi, Shaibu Mellon, Azzarri, Carlo, Kotu, Bekele Hundi, Kornher, Lukas

“…Estimates further reveal that the average benefit for adopters differ from the marginal benefit for new farmers at the margin of participation. Finally, our findings suggest that not all farm households at the marginal entrants would benefit from all the potential scaling-up options, except households who by socio-economic characteristics appear least likely to adopt. …”

A dynamic computable general equilibrium model with working capital for Honduras por Morley, Samuel, Piñeiro, Valeria, Robinson, Sherman

“…We specify a fixed minimum wage and an informal sector and use a recursive dynamic framework to solve for the short-run adjustment process that occurs as the economy responds to shocks. Finally, the model introduces working capital as an additional factor of production, complementary to physical capital, which allows us to examine the impact of monetary shocks that affect the supply of credit on the balance of payments, employment, and real income during periods of adjustment.…”
