Effects of forest plantations on soil carbon sequestration and farmers’ livelihoods por Poultouchidou, Anatoli

“…This study was conducted to determine both (1) the long-term effects of plantations on soil organic carbon (SOC) and (2) the social impact of the plantation on farmers’ livelihoods in Ethiopia. Tree plantations of Cupressus lusitanica and Eucalyptus saligna were established on abandoned mechanized farmland nearly 30 years ago. …”

Forest transitions and rural livelihoods: multiple pathways of smallholder teak expansion in Northern Laos por Newby, Jonathan Craig, Cramb, Rob, Sakanphet, Somphanh

“…Smallholder teak (Tectona grandis) plantations have been identified as a potentially valuable component of upland farming systems in northern Laos that can contribute to a “livelihood transition” from subsistence-oriented swidden agriculture to a more commercially-oriented farming system, thereby bringing about a “forest transition” at the landscape scale. …”

Performance of a hermetic device and neem (Azadirachta indica) in storing wheat seed: Evidence from participatory household trials in central Bangladesh por Krupnik, Timothy J., Hossain, M. Khaled, Timsina, Jagadish, Uddin, Md. Mohi, Baksh, Md. Elahi, Hasan, Md. Zakaria, Gathala, Mahesh Kumar

“…Factorial treatments included comparison of hermetic SuperGrainbags® (Premium RZ) against LDPE bags, both with and without the addition of dried neem tree leaves (Azadirachta indica). SuperGrainbags® were more effective in maintaining seed moisture at acceptable levels close to pre-storage conditions than LDPE bags. …”

Integrating institutions into a socio-hydrological model: An example for water quality management in Burkina Faso por Carr, Gemma, Barendrecht, Marlies, Debevec, Liza, Balana, Bedru

“…The model aims to capture the relationships between agency support for water quality management, the capacity of local organizations to support farmers and land users, land use changes in the riparian zones, improved agricultural practices employed by farmers (e.g., reduced tillage, organic farming, or cultivating tree crops rather than vegetables), and suspended sediment concentration in the river as an indicator of water quality. …”

Priority interventions for transformational change in the Sahel por Abberton, Michael T., Abdoulaye, Tahirou, Ademonla, Djalal A, Asiedu, R., Ayantunde, A.A., Bayala, Jules, Cofie, Olufunke O., Kane Potaka, Joanna, Zwart, Sander J., Tabo, Ramadjita, Tenkouano, A., Tepa-Yotto, Ghislain T., Togola, A., Whitbread, Anthony M., Worou, Omonlola N., Zougmoré, Robert B.

“…This document presents some of the main routes by which R4D can contribute to agricultural transformation in the Sahel towards inclusive and sustainable economic growth, social development and resilience, including climate smart agricultural technologies appropriate to smallholder farming families. This will be achieved through a six pronged strategy: (i) Increasing the efficiency of tree, crop and livestock value chains, (ii) Empowerment and increased employment opportunities for women and youth in agriculture, (iii) Co-creation of context-specific, climate smart innovations to enhance climate resilience (iv) Value addition and improved nutrition, (v) Improved soil and water conservation and its utilization for production, (vi) Improved policy and institutional enabling environments.…”
