New Methods to Assess Climate Change Impacts, Vulnerability and Adaptation of Agricultural Production Systems: The experience of AgMIP’s Regional Integrated Assessments in Sub-Saharan Africa and South Asia
The climate change research community has recognized that new pathway and scenario concepts are needed to implement impact and vulnerability assessment that is logically consistent across global, regional and local scales ...
Role of climate change awareness in sustainable soil nutrient management by smallholder farms in Burkina Faso
Climate change effects are threats to the livelihood of Sub-Saharan smallholder farms. Farmers’
response and readiness to take adaptive measures depend on how they perceive (perception) and
moreover understand and recognize ...

Vulnerability of rainfed wheat to stripe rust in Arab sea action site
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. ...
Barley Genetic Resources for Climate-Change Adaptation
Barley (Hordeum vulgare L.) has been cultivated over millennia, making it one
of the oldest domesticated crops (Salamini et al. 2002). Ranking fourth in global
cereal-crop production, it is used for animal feed, brewing ...
Adaptability and suitability of local cattle breeds in Egypt: Farmers and actors’ perceptions and practices of the cattle value chain
Egypt, where the mean temperature is expected to increase by 1−1.5°C over the next two decades, is particularly concerned with climate change in the Medi- terranean. Most of the research works on adaptive animal traits ...
Assessing Plant Genetic Resources for Climate- Change Adaptive Traits Heat Traits
The vulnerability of wheat is likely to increase due to an increase of heat stress
according to recent wheat-production simulation models combined with local
climate-change data. This is particularly an issue affecting ...
How Investment in RD&E Offset the Negative Impact of Climate Change on the Tunisian Agricultural Productivity Sector
The aim of this paper is to examine the impact of research, development extension (RD&E) and climate change (measured in terms of change in rainfall) on the productivity growth of agriculture in Tunisia during the period ...

Crop–Livestock Intensification in the Face of Climate Change: Exploring Opportunities to Reduce Risk and Increase Resilience in Southern Africa by Using an Integrated Multi-modeling Approach
The climate of Southern Africa is highly variable at most time-scales and follows a pronounced gradient with arid conditions in the west and humid conditions in the east. There is also a marked latitudinal rainfall ...
