What induced farmers to protect and manage on-farm tree natural regeneration in Nigerien Dryland?
During the second half of the 20th century the Sahel experienced one of the most striking shifts in climate known globally since instrumental records began to be kept-from anomalously abundant rains in the 1950's and 1960's ...
Ecosystem management can mitigate vegetation shifts induced byclimate change in West Africa
tThe welfare of people in the tropics and sub-tropics strongly depends on goods and services that savannaecosystems supply, such as food and livestock production, fuel wood, and climate regulation. Flows ofthese services ...
Sustainable Land Management and Water in a context of climate change in the Sahel - Gestion Durable des Terres et de l’Eau dans un contexte de changement climatique dans les pays du Sahel
Après avoir souhaité la bienvenue à tous les participants, Dr. Tondoh a fait un tour de table afin que chacun des participants puisse se présenter, dire quelques mots sur son background et la zone du projet d’où il provient. ...
Parklands for buffering climate risk and sustaining agricultural production in the Sahel of West Africa
In the Sahelian zone of West Africa, crops grown under a
discontinuous cover of scattered trees dominate many
landscapes and constitute the so-called parklands. These
systems reflect the ecological knowledge of the farmers ...
Crop production under different rainfall and management conditions in agroforestry parkland systems in Burkina Faso: observations and simulation with WaNuLCAS model
Traditional agroforestry parkland systems
in Burkina Faso are under threat due to human
pressure and climate variability and change, requiring
a better understanding for planning of adaptation.
Field experiments were ...
The Chinyanja Triangle in the Zambezi River Basin, Southern Africa: Status of, and Prospects for, Agriculture, Natural Resources Management and Rural Development
The Chinyanja Triangle (CT) is an area inside the Zambezi
River Basin, inhabited by Chinyanja-speaking people
sharing a similar history, language and culture across
the dryland systems of the eastern province of Zambia,
...
Analysis of the impact of land management options in tackling land degradation in sub-Saharan Africa: example study based on longterm remote sensing and climate data
Tackling land degradation and restoring degraded landscapes requires information on areas
of priority intervention, since it is not economically and technically possible to manage all
areas affected. Recent developments ...
Putting the Dryland Systems program into action - Program Update, Issue 2
The CGIAR Research Program on Dryland Agricultural Production Systems that is led by ICARDA, is moving forward with a series of implementation workshops, where the research teams will design workplans, set priorities and ...
