Household livelihood strategies in the miombo woodlands of Tanzania: emerging trends por Monela, G.C., Kajembe, G.C., Kaoneka, A.R.S., Kowero, G.S.

“…The results indicate that reductions government spending have decreased agricultural support in terms of extension services and subsidies on farm inputs. The increase in prices of input factors relative to output has raised costs of farm inputs, cost of living in general and decreased disposable incomes for most rural dwellers, forcing some of them into extensive forest product exploitation and trade for each incomes. in the study sites, some forest products contribute between 50-70% of annual household incomes. …”

The effects of Indonesia's decentralisation on forests and estate crops: case study of Riau province, the original districts of Kampar and Indragiri Hulu por Potter, L., Badcock, S.

“…The study found that during 2000, the most serious impact on the forests was a result of political reformation and the economic crisis, with the Soeharto government’s rules being ignored and timber being cut for its quick return under conditions of high demand. Depressed rubber prices gave further impetus to forest clearing. After decentralisation, despite greatly increased available income in the districts, serious environmental and social problems remained to be tackled. …”

From tree to tea to CO2 in the Democratic Republic of Congo: a framework for analyzing the market chain of fuelwood around Kinshasa and Kisangani por Schure, J., Ingram, V.J., Awono, A., Binzangi, K.

“…Associated issues include the heavy social costs, particularly respiratory health problems (Bruce, Perez-Padilla et al., 2002; Nash & Luttrell, 2006), that can be ill afforded by the chronically poor. Increasing fuelwood prices have been noted for urban users (Marien, Bertrand et al., 2008) , however the extent to which the trade contributes to livelihoods is unknown - whether as a main source of income or a supplemental, transitional, seasonal or occasional source such as from land clearance. …”

Effects of strategic helminthosis control on age at first lambing and lambing interval of communally grazed Menz ewes in Ethiopia por Aragaw, K., Teferi, M., Haile, Aynalem, Tibbo, Markos

“…The ewes were stratified by weight and randomly allocated to three treatment groups as untreated control (TG1), twice-dosed per year (TG2) for both nematodes and trematodes in mid-January and mid-June and four-time-dosed per year (TG3) in June for nematodes, in August–September for nematodes and adult Fasciola, in November–December and January–February for immature flukes. …”

Technologies to produce liquid biofuels for transportation: An overview por Schwaiger, H., Pena, N., Mayer, A., Bird, D.N.

“…Both biodiesel via transesterification and biofuels produced via second generation conversion processes have high production costs and need subsidies or higher fossil fuel prices to be competitive. Although export of biofuels could be a source of income for developing countries, trade in biofuels is expected to remain a small fraction of total biofuel production.…”

Genetic variability of tropical maize stover quality and the potential for genetic improvement of food-feed value in India por Zaidi, Pervez Haider, Vinayan, M.T., Blümmel, Michael

“…On the basis of high stover in vitro digestibility (IVOMD) (a trait chosen because it correlated well with pricing in fodder trading of another coarse stover, namely sorghum) and high grain yield, the top ranking 10 inbred lines were selected and crossed in all possible combinations (excluding reciprocals) using diallel mating design in the rainy season of 2010. …”

Effects of immunisation against Theileria parva on beef cattle productivity and economics of control options por Pegram, R.G., James, A.D., Bamhare, C., Dolan, T.T., Hove, T., Kanhai, G.K., Latif, A.A.

“…In the first year, some immunised cattle were maintained with minimal threshold dipping (once or twice during the rainy season). During periods of very high tick challenge of 100 to 1,000 Rhipicephalus appendiculatus per animal from January to March, a transient decrease in liveweight gain was observed particularly in cows. …”

Accuracy of pastoralists' memory-based kinship assignment of Ankole cattle: A microsatellite DNA analysis por Kugonza, Donald R., Kiwuwa, G.H., Mpairwe, D.R., Han Jianlin, Nabasirye, M., Okeyo Mwai, Ally, Hanotte, Olivier H.

“…Overall, we conclude that memorized records of pastoralists can be used to trace relationships and for pedigree reconstruction within Ankole cattle populations, but with the awareness that herd size constrains the number of kinship assignments remembered by the farmer.…”

Participatory analysis of the sweet cherry sector in Argentinian South Patagonia por Mundet, CA, Córdoba, Diana M., Álvarez, S., Cittadini, ED

“…The most important constraints described by the different stake-holders’ group were: (a) inappropriate technology use at packinghouses and at farm level (requiring improvement of technology generation and transfer, and funding), (b) low profitability (less than 50% of the fruit is exportable and labour efficiency is low) and (c) commercialization (low prices, exchange rate, absence of contracts and unreliable brokers). …”

Accuracy of genomic breeding values for residual feed intake in crossbred beef cattle por Mujibi, F.D.N., Nkrumah, O.N., Stothard, P., Mah, Z., Wang, S., Basarab, G., Plastow, D.H., Moore, S.S.

“…Differences in accuracy were observed between sire breeds when the RR-BLUP method was used, which may imply that the correlations obtained by this method were confounded by the ability of the selected SNP to trace breed differences. This may also suggest that prediction equations derived from such an admixed population may only be useful in populations of similar composition. …”
