  1. 1. Assessing water balance and yields in Malawian cropping systems : maize soybean and maize Gliricidia systems resilience against climate change

    Master-uppsats, SLU/Dept. of Soil and Environment

    Författare :Danila Valeriano; [2024]
    Nyckelord :crop modelling; APSIM; Malawi; maize; soybean; Gliricidia; agroforestry; legume intercropping; climate predictions; climate adaptation; SDSM;

    Sammanfattning : In Malawi, maize monocultures are increasingly susceptible to extreme weather patterns, causing considerable yield reduction and heightened food insecurity for smallholder farmers dependent on rainfed subsistence agriculture. Diversifying cropping systems is crucial for ensuring yield resilience. LÄS MER

  3. 2. Assessment of Climate Change Impact on Rainfed Barley Production in the Mediterranean Basin : The Almeria province case study

    Master-uppsats, KTH/Hållbar utveckling, miljövetenskap och teknik

    Författare :Francesco Saretto; [2024]
    Nyckelord :Barley; Rainfed; Climate Change; AquaCrop; AquaCrop-OSPy; Mediterranean; Climate Change Adaptation; Crop Modeling; Agriculture; Irrigation;

    Sammanfattning : The Mediterranean basin is widely recognized as a climate change hotspot, with climate models projecting increasingly warmer and drier conditions that will impact local ecosystems, communities, and economies. Agriculture will be among the most affected sectors, with harsher conditions for crops’ growth, greater water needs, and lower yields. LÄS MER

  4. 3. Kemiska växtskyddsmedel i jordbruket : en förutsättning för tryggad livsmedelsförsörjning?

    Kandidat-uppsats, SLU/Dept. of Ecology

    Författare :Joakim Stattin; [2023]
    Nyckelord :växtskydd; kemiska växtskyddsmedel; livsmedelstrygghet; jordbruk; avkastning; odlingssystem; integrerat växtskydd;

    Sammanfattning : Jordbruket står inför stora utmaningar under de kommande decennierna. Jordens ökande befolkning driver upp efterfrågan på livsmedel och biobränslen från jordbruket. Men jordbrukets produktion bör inte öka genom att expandera till ytan eftersom det skulle ske på bekostnad av viktiga naturliga habitat. LÄS MER

  5. 4. FISCAL POLICY AND GENDER INEQUALITY : A CASE OF AGRICULTURE SECTOR IN NIGERIA

    Magister-uppsats, Södertörns högskola/Nationalekonomi

    Författare :Adetutu O Emmanuel; [2023]
    Nyckelord :;

    Sammanfattning : Over the years governmental efforts to resolve the issues of gender inequality particularly in the developing countries appear to be less significant, and some scholars have identified this failing as the bane of economic growth and development in such countries. It is argued that the consequences which stems from discrimination against women who constitute about 70% of agricultural labor market in Nigeria and their low empowerment in Nigeria's agriculture sector led to the overall low productivity in the country's agriculture sector.

  7. 5. Techno-economic and environmental analysis of alternative pathways for urea fertilizer production.

    Master-uppsats, Linköpings universitet/Industriell miljöteknik

    Författare :Wilson Rodriguez; [2023]
    Nyckelord :Urea fertilizer; ammonia; natural gas; biogas; GWP; PE; hydrogen; nitrogen; technologies.;

    Sammanfattning : The increasing global population has placed significant pressure on meeting food demands, leading to the widespread use of fertilizers to enhance crop yields. Urea, being the most used fertilizer globally, has contributed to improved agricultural productivity. LÄS MER
