National and Regional Livestock Markets: Opportunities for Growth in SADC
The last forty years has seen a continuous rise in the demand for meat, milk, and other livestock products worldwide. Fueled by trends
such as increased urbanization, growing populations, and income growth in the urban ...
Simulation analysis of factors affecting sorghum yield at selected sites in eastern and southern Africa, with emphasis on increasing temperatures
Global warming is widely predicted to decrease crop yields in tropical, sub-tropical and Mediterranean
climatic regions as a result of a speeding up of phenological development and shortening of the time
to maturity. We ...
Exploring the challenges with soil data in regional land use analysis
Over recent decades, environmentalmodels have gradually replaced traditional, qualitative land evaluation in regional
land use analysis (RLUA). This changed the data requirements as the environmental models require ...
Biomass in crop-livestock systems in the context of the livestock revolution
Mixed crop-livestock systems are the dominant source of livelihood supporting more
than 80% of people living in the developing world and producing 50% of world
cereals, around 34% of the global beef production and about ...
Edifice growth and collapse of the Pliocene Mt. Kenya: Evidence of large scale debris avalanches on a high altitude glaciated volcano
The cyclic growth and destruction of the Late Cenozoic Stratovolcano Mt. Kenya have been reconstructed for its
southeastern segment. At least three major debris avalanche deposits have been reconstructed and dated. The
oldest ...
Crop and Livestock Production for Improved Food Security and Livelihoods in Rural Zimbabwe
Farmers in Zimbabwe face many challenges, including low soil fertility, low and erratic rainfall, and poor market access. They are therefore often poor and vulnerable to risks and shocks. With increasing human populations ...
