Farming household types and their characterization in complex crop-livestock smallholder agricultural systems for contextual analysis and extension intervention: case of Riviridzi Catchment in Ntcheu
Typology of farming units (households and farms) is deemed essential for targeted research and development programs. We employ the sustainable livelihood framework to collect integrated dataset for household, landscape and ...
Agricultural livelihood systems (ALS) typology for coping with socio-ecological diversity in ALS transition research: A demonstrative case in Pontieba, south-western Burkina Faso
Smallholder farms’ populations are characterized by their heterogeneity giving the diversity of farms’ livelihood settings. Integrated farming system modelling therefore requires a preliminary clear identification of the ...
Eco-efficiency Analysis of Typical Smallholder Systems: Case Study in Southwestern Burkina Faso
Presentation of Eco-efficiency Analysis of Typical Smallholder Systems: Case Study in Southwestern Burkina Faso
Integrated production functions for main crop fields in Pontieba, south-western Burkina Faso: Empirical estimations for efficiency assessment and further integrated modelling
Understanding efficiencies of the uses of major inputs for smallholder cropping systems such as labour and fertilizer under heterogeneous site conditions are important for sustainable intensification management and policy. ...
Rural Livelihood, Biodiversity and Carbon Stock in Vietnam Mountains: Agent-Based Modeling to Anticipate Trade-Offs
Assessment of future multiple ecosystem services driven by alternative land-use policies is
useful for supporting decisions about what and where to invest for the best overall environmental and
developmental outcomes. The ...
Farm type-specific adoption behaviour in sustainable soil nutrient management: the case of smallholder farms in Ioba province, Burkina Faso
Sub-Saharan Africa has failed to ensure sufficient and sustainable food production, mainly as a result of soil nutrient depletion. The persisting food insecurity and poverty, despite proven sustainable soil nutrient ...
Methodological options for modelling agent’s decision-making in multi-agent system model of coupled community-landscape systems
This visual-aided manual presents the state-of-the art methodological options for modeling human decision-making in general and in multi-agent system. The options include heuristic, rational, bounded rational and hybrid ...
