Changes in Livestock Grazing Efficiency Incorporating Grassland Productivity: The Case of Hulun Buir, China

Peer-reviewed publication
октября, 2020
United States of America
China
Russia

Recently, improving technical efficiency is an effective way to enhance the quality of grass-based livestock husbandry production and promote an increase in the income of herdsmen, especially in the background of a continuing intensification of climate change processes.

Bioenergy Potential and Greenhouse Gas Emissions from Intensifying European Temporary Grasslands

Peer-reviewed publication
октября, 2020
Europe

Agricultural intensification is considered essential for meeting growing demand for food and biomass for energy purposes. Intensifying grasslands is under-represented, although it is a promising option given their large land area and relatively low management levels. This study quantifies the bioenergy potential from intensifying temporary grasslands in Europe and the integral greenhouse gas emission effects in 2030.

Youth and the Future of Community Forestry

Peer-reviewed publication
октября, 2020
Mexico
United States of America

Forests managed by Indigenous and other local communities generate important benefits for livelihood, and contribute to regional and global biodiversity and carbon sequestration goals. Yet, challenges to community forestry remain. Rural out-migration, for one, can make it hard for communities to maintain broad and diverse memberships invested in local forest commons. This includes young people, who can contribute critical energy, ideas, and skills and are well positioned to take up community forest governance and work, but often aspire to alternative livelihoods and lifestyles.

A Transparent and Intuitive Modeling Framework and Software for Efficient Land Allocation

Peer-reviewed publication
октября, 2020
Southern Africa
South Africa

The purpose of this research is to better conserve biodiversity by improving land allocation modeling software. Here we introduce a planning support framework designed to be understood by and useful to land managers, stakeholders, and other decision-makers. With understanding comes trust and engagement, which often yield better implementation of model results.

Gender, Land and Food Access in Ghana’s Suburban Cities: A Case of the Adenta Municipality

Peer-reviewed publication
октября, 2020
Ghana
Norway

The disparity in land and food access in Ghana often overlooks the possibility of an underlying gender disparity. This paper explores and interrogates the disparity between land and food access with respect to gender and the evolution of this relationship over the years as a result of the settlement expansion and urban growth within the Adenta Municipality in Ghana. Adopting a mixed pairwise approach of combining spatial analytical tools, vulnerability indexing and resilient indicators, the paper examines the levels and rates of land accessibilities within the stream of modern cities.
