Diesel price hike and the energy squeeze on Pakistan's smallholder irrigators por Ul-Hassan, Mehmood, Shah, Tushaar, Ur Rehman, S., Khattak, M.Z., Tanwir, F., Saboor, A., Lashari, Bakhshal K.

“…This paper aims at bringing forth the impacts of successive diesel price increase on irrigation economy of smallholders, and their coping strategies to absorb the energy shocks and sustain their livelihoods. Based on a synthesis of qualitative assessment from 9 village level case studies carried out in NWFP, Punjab and Sindh provinces of Pakistan, where diesel and electric pumps are essential for sustaining irrigated agriculture, the paper confirms that the recent hike in diesel prices have proven to be the proverbial last straw on camel's back for the livelihoods of small farmers and tenants. …”

Trees for life: The ecosystem service contribution of trees to food production and livelihoods in the tropics por Reed, J.D., Vianen, J. van, Foli, S., Clendenning, J., Yang, K., MacDonald, M., Petrokofsky, G., Padoch, Christine, Sunderland, Terry C.H.

“…Furthermore, this review has illustrated the potential of achieving net livelihood gains through integrating trees on farms, providing rural farmers with additional income sources, and greater resilience strategies to adapt to market or climatic shocks. However, we also identify significant gaps in the current knowledge that demonstrate a need for larger-scale, longer term research to better understand the contribution of forest and trees within the broader landscape and their associated impacts on livelihoods and food production systems.…”
