Science Under Scarcity: Principles and Practice for Agricultural Research Evaluation and Priority Setting por Alston, Julian M., Norton, George W., Pardey, Philip G.

“…Without the assistance of formal economic analysis it is particularly difficult to assess the social value of new technologies or to make informed judgements about the trade-offs that are involved in allocation decisions. Addressing that knowledge gap, this book reviews, synthesizes, and extends such methods as economic surplus analysis, econometric techniques, mathematical programming procedures, and scoring models. …”

Measuring above-ground carbon stock using spatial analysis and the InVEST model: Application in the Thoria Watershed, India por Guo, Zhe, Hettiarachchi, Upeksha

“…We analyze land cover changes in the Thoria watershed between the years 2000, 2020 and future scenarios, and subsequently map the above-ground carbon stock using the InVEST model along with remotely sensed data. The land use products and above-ground carbon stock modelling results can be used by diverse stakeholders to support land use planning, especially decisions around how to allocate land resource to balance food production, carbon sequestration, and other ecosystem services provided by common lands. …”

Decomposing USDA ending stocks forecast errors por Goyal, Raghav, Adjemian, Michael K., Glauber, Joseph W., Meyer, Seth

“…By comparing USDA’s projections of balance sheet variables against their realized values from marketing years 1992/3 to 2019/20, we decompose ending stocks forecast errors into errors of the other supply and demand components. We apply a decision-tree-based ensemble Machine Learning (ML) algorithm, the Extreme Gradient Boost Tree (EGBT), that uses a gradient boosting framework and is robust to multicollinearity. …”

Synopsis: Transforming agriculture for improving food and nutrition security among Nigerian farm households por Ecker, Olivier, Hatzenbuehler, Patrick L., Mahrt, Kristi

“…Given the many Nigerians involved in farming, these adjustments in policymaker focus toward boosting general agricultural development, including targeted initiatives for specific crops and industries, could have substantial effects on livelihoods across Nigeria, especially in terms of farm household planting and consumption decisions. Since much smallholder-produced food is consumed at home rather than sold, such changes would influence dietary intakes and nutrition-related health outcomes. …”
