Multiple shocks, agroecology and resilience of smallholder food security in Northern Ghana por Dagunga, G.

“…Second, econometric approaches were employed to assess smallholder agroecological practices adoption behaviour to shocks as well as the moderation role of agroecology on the shock-resilience nexus in northern Ghana. Finally, the study simulated how projected changes in rainfall and temperature could affect the resilience of smallholder food security and the potential of agroecology to moderate the resulting impacts. …”

Internal displacement and the promotion of agricultural intensification in Nigeria: Experimental evidence from a fragile setting por Misra, Rewa S., Bloem, Jeffrey R., Ambler, Kate, Wagner, Julia, Amare, Mulubrhan

“…We do, however, find evidence of increased consumption of biofortified crop varieties among households offered subsidies. Finally, we find no significant differences between IDP and non-IDP farmers in adoption or investment behavior, suggesting that policy interventions promoting improved agricultural technologies can be effective across both displaced and host populations in fragile settings.…”

Driving change: Inclusive strategies to realise Africa’s fertiliser and soil health agenda por Rasche, F.

“…It draws on CGIAR’s experience across Africa and Latin America to identify five interconnected levers essential for successful implementation: (1) inclusive, evidence-based policy mandates that address land tenure, access rights, and structural inequalities; (2) trusted multi-sectoral partnerships involving governments, the private sector, NGOs, donors, and farmers to drive reform and scale solutions; (3) demand-driven, trans-disciplinary R&D that delivers measurable outcomes and integrates user-centred, gender-sensitive approaches; (4) targeted investments and innovative financing mechanisms to expand private sector engagement and tailor solutions to local needs; and (5) inclusive capacity building that empowers women, youth, and marginalised groups. Finally, the talk emphasises that advancing agricultural transformation will require sustained commitment, with soil health positioned at the core of agricultural policy and practice as the foundation for a more equitable, climate-resilient, and productive future for Africa.…”

Evolution of agricultural water management in rainfed crop-livestock systems of the Volta Basin por Douxchamps, Sabine, Ayantunde, Augustine A., Barron, Jennie

“…There is a need for an institutional perspective, to facilitate management of AWM structures and to raise awareness. Finally, there is a need for a long-term perspective, to foresee the best strategies for adaptation to climate change and manage risk in the variable environment of the Volta Basin.…”

Impact of grazing on soil physical properties in the east African highlands por Taddese, G., Peden, Donald G., Ayalneh, W., Jobre, Y.

“…The steady state infiltration rate was significantly different only in light grazing treatment at 4-8 % slope. Finally livestock grazing with good management and manure recycling to the grazed plots could not degrade soil physical and hydrological properties. …”

Epidemiology of bovine trypanosomiasis in the Ghibe valley, southwest Ethiopia. 3. Occurrence of population of Trypanosoma congolense resistant to diminazene, isometamidium and hom... por Codjia, V., Mulatu, W., Majiwa, Phelix A.O., Leak, S.G.A., Rowlands, G.J., Authié, Edith, D'Ieteren, G.D.M., Peregrine, A.S.

“…Thus, the multi-resistance phenotype of the parental isolate was associated with expression of multi-resistance by individual trypanosomes. Finally, molecular karyotypes and electrophoretic variants of six enzymes were determined for seven and eight of the isolates, respectively. …”

Immune mechanisms in C57B1 mice genetically resistant to Trypanosoma congolense infection. 2. Aspects of the humoral response por Macaskill, J.A., Holmes, P.H., Whitelaw, D.D., Jennings, F.W., Urquhart, G.M.

“…In contrast, A/J mice showed a continual fall in total IgG concentrations in the circulation until death 10 days after infection. Finally, it was shown that during the initial rising parasitaemia, the plaque forming cell responses of both strains of mice to sheep red blood cells were normal indicating that neither strain of mice was immunosuppressed. …”
