Despite enthusiasm for the potential of digital innovations to transform agricultural markets in Africa, progress made thus far has been limited to small-scale experiments that often fail to scale up. Realizing the full potential of digital innovations – tools, technologies, applications, and services – in Africa requires not just further developme...
Rice production is an integral commodity to global food security, but it also contributes considerably to greenhouse gas emissions (GHG). There are a variety of options to mitigate GHG emissions from paddy rice production but the impacts and opportunities to finance such activities are not well-known or well-understood for global investors, and muc...
Status zaščitene kmetije je poseben pravni status, ki se dodeli kmetijam, ki obsegajo od najmanj 5 do največ 100 ha primerljive kmetijske površine. Osnova za dodelitev statusa je Zakon o dedovanju kmetijskih gospodarstev iz leta 1995. Namen statusa zaščitene kmetije je, da se prevzemniku omogoči prevzem kmetije pod pogoji, ki ga preveč ne obremenju...
L’écologie politique latino-américaine est un cadre théorique pour penser les relations société-nature et la transition écologique qui a émergé au cours des 25 dernières années et représente aujourd’hui un véritable courant de référence dans le monde luso- hispanophone. Cet article présente la trajectoire et les ramifications de ce cadre théorique,...
KEY MESSAGES ◼ Despite many available digital tools in the digital ecosystem, many neglect smallholders’ ranching. Also, they focus solely on performance indicators, lacking climate-informed agroecological features. ◼ Mitigation features are included only by performance assessment tools, although only by half of them. ◼ Adaptation features in digit...

The collection of publicly available databases about climate change and its impacts on natural and human systems is unprecedented and ever-growing. However, the requirements of information can vary widely among users depending on their region, socioenvironmental context, and interests. Moreover, in the current era of active mitigation and adaptatio...

Many areas of sugar beet production will face hotter and drier summers as the climate changes. There has been much research on drought tolerance in sugar beet but water use efficiency (WUE) has been less of a focus. An experiment was undertaken to examine how fluctuating soil water deficits effect WUE from the leaf to the crop level and identify if...
