Winners and losers from COVID-19: Evidence from Google search data for Egypt por Abay, Kibrom A., Ibrahim, Hosam

“…Our results, along with other evolving evidence, reinforce that those services and sectors negatively affected by the outbreak and spread of COVID-19 deserve attention. • Finally, our analysis highlights the potential of near real-time "big data" to substitute and complement conventional data sources to estimate economic impacts and, hence, inform immediate and medium-term policy responses.…”

Climate change, agriculture, and adaptation options for Costa Rica por Sain, Gustavo, Thomas, Timothy S., Cenacchi, Nicola

“…Recommendations are made regarding managing the shift in areas used for coffee growing. Finally, losses in the dairy industry are possible from heat stress if cattle are not sufficiently cooled in the months that are hot and humid, pointing to need for longer-term investments in buildings and cooling equipment that may make a huge difference in future productivity.…”

Scrutinizing the status quo: Rural transformation and land tenure security in Nigeria por Ghebru, Hosaena, Girmachew, Fikirte

“…On the other hand, collective tenure risk is lower in communities with improved economic status. Finally, signifying the need to account for intra-household dimensions in implementing land reform interventions, results from a more disaggregated analysis show that tenure security is relatively higher on female-managed plots of female-headed households, while the opposite is the case for female-managed plots of male-headed households.…”

How could agricultural land systems contribute to raise food production under global change? por Wu, Wen-Bin, Yu, Qiang-Yi, Verburg, Peter H., You, Liangzhi, Yang, Peng, Tang, Hua-Jun

“…Climate change, dietary shifts, and other socio-economic drivers, which would shape the demand and supply side of food systems, should be taken into consideration during the decision-making on rational land management in respect of sustainable crop choice and allocation. And finally, crop-specific agricultural intensification would play a bigger role in raising future food production either by increasing the yield per unit area of individual crops or by increasing the number of crops sown on a particular area of land. …”

Integrating Y-Chromosome, Mitochondrial and autosomal data to analyse the origin of pig breeds por Ramírez, O., Ojeda, A., Tomas, A., Gallardo, D., Huang, L.S., Folch, J.M., Clop, A., Sánchez, A., Babaoui, B., Hanotte, Olivier H.

“…This region seems to have been a major point of entry of livestock species in the African continent as a result of the Indian Ocean trade. Finally, South American creole breeds had essentially a European ancestry although Asian Y-chromosome and mitochondrial haplotypes were found in a few Nicaraguan pigs. …”

Using a spatial growth model to provide evidence of agricultural spillovers between countries in the NEPAD CAADP Framework por Ulimwengu, John M., Sanyal, Prabuddha

“…No evidence of beggar-thy-neighbor or negative spillover policies was found; on average, each country received 2.5 percent growth as a result of spillover. Finally, our results suggest that convergence dynamics is much stronger when spillover is accounted for which provides a rationale for a common agenda such as CAADP.…”

Cryotherapy, breeding instrument, commercial stock deposit: Cryopreservation is more than a long term conservation tool for of plant genetic resources por Panis, Bart

“…This effect of cryotherapy is not based on killing pathogen such as viruses, phytoplasmas and bacteria by freezing but on the selection of the most meristematic part of the plant that has also the highest chance to be free of those pathogens. Finally, cryopreservation can also be applied to store large amounts of independent in vitro cultures that are being produced and conserved by in vitro production companies.…”

Economic partnership agreements between the European Union and African, Caribbean, and Pacific Countries: What is at stake for Senegal por Berisha-Krasniqi, Valdete, Bouët, Antoine, Mevel, Simon

“…Furthermore, the EPA implies a loss of tariff revenues from liberalization, which has been a key concern for ACP countries from the beginning of talks because they constitute a high level of public receipts there. Finally this kind of reform could lead to trade diversion in Senegal while creating not enough trade. …”

Key Issues for the Sustainable Development of Smallholder Agriculture in the East African Highlands por Pender, John L., Place, Frank, Ehui, Simeon

“…The varying population density, agricultural potential, and market access conditions are representative of the variation found elsewhere in Africa. And finally, within the highlands are not only many areas beset by problems of poverty and low productivity but some real successes where farmers invest in agriculture and improved resource management and generate significant profits. …”

Rice quality: How is it defined by consumers, industry, food scientists and geneticists? por Custodio, Marie Claire, Cuevas, Rosa Paula, Ynion, Jhoanne, Laborte, Alice G., Velasco, Maria Lourdes, Demont, Matty

“…However, food technologists have not reached unanimity on quality classes and measurement; routine indicators need to be complemented by descriptive profiles elicited through sensory evaluation panels. Finally, because rice quality is controlled by multiple interacting genes expressed through environmental conditions, predicting grain quality requires associating genetic information with grain quality phenotypes in different environments.…”

Approaches in characterizing genetic structure and mapping in a rice multiparental population por Raghavan, Chitra, Mauleon, Ramil, Lacorte, Vanica, Jubay, Monalisa, Zaw, Hein, Bonifacio, Justine, Singh, Rakesh Kumar, Huang, B Emma, Leung, Hei

“…This paper demonstrates the analysis of a rice MAGIC population from data filtering to imputation and processing of genetic data to characterizing genomic structure, and finally quantitative trait loci (QTL) mapping. In this study, 1316 S6:8 indica MAGIC (MI) lines and the eight founders were sequenced using Genotyping by Sequencing (GBS). …”

“…In particular, we provide evidence that the basal GG genome ofOryza(O. granulata) has expanded by nearly 25% by a burst of theRWGlineageGran3subsequent to speciation. Finally we describe the recent evolutionary origin ofDasheng, a large retrotransposon derivative of theRWGfamily, specifically found in the A, B and C genome lineages ofOryza.…”

De las alturas a la Amazonía: Principales factores que Impulsan la migración interna en el Perú por Hernandez, Manuel A., Berrospi, Maria Lucia, Juarez, Henry, Pradel, Willy, Navarrete, Corina

“…En 2013, aproximadamente 763 millones de personas habían migrado dentro de sus propios países, lo que equivalía al 12% de la población mundial; este fenómeno es particularmente relevante en América Latina y el Caribe, con tasas de migración interna hasta 50% más altas que el promedio global (United Nations Population Division, 2013). Asimismo, hacia finales de 2022, más de 71.2 millones de personas habían sido desplazadas internamente debido a conflictos, violencia y desastres naturales, estableciendo un récord histórico y representando un aumento del 60% en comparación con 2021 (McAuliffe & Oucho, 2024).…”
