Integrating institutions into a socio-hydrological model: An example for water quality management in Burkina Faso
The variety of demands that people place on water resources, coupled with the dynamics of the natural system, make water resource management highly complex.
Perspective: The importance of water security for ensuring food security, good nutrition, and well-being
Water security is a powerful concept that is still in its early days in the field of nutrition.
We study production practices of larger and more capital-intensive farmers (“horti-preneurs”) in horticultural commercial clusters in the central Rift Valley of Ethiopia.
Solar or diesel: A comparison of costs for groundwater‐fed irrigation in Sub‐Saharan Africa under two energy solutions
Sub‐Saharan Africa has long been beset with food insecurity and energy poverty. Expanding irrigated agriculture can help boost food production in the region, but this requires energy for accessing water, especially in groundwater‐fed irrigation.
Games for triggering collective change in natural resource management: A conceptual framework and insights from four cases from India
As resource users interact and impose externalities onto each other, institutions are needed to coordinate resource use, create trust, and provide incentives for sustainable management.
Sub-Saharan Africa has long been beset with food insecurity. Investment in small-scale irrigation may provide a solution to address the challenge by extending crop production into the dry season.
Explores key emerging issues facing developing-country agriculture today, from rapid urbanization to rural transformation to climate change
Agricultural Development: New Perspectives in a Changing World is the first comprehensive exploration of key emerging issues facing developing-country agriculture today, from rapid urbanization to rural transformation to climate change.
Agricultural development in a changing world
The world has been changing rapidly, and major issues surrounding agriculture have evolved as well. In fact, over the last several decades major shifts have occurred in the thinking on and practice of agricultural development.
Although the ECA countries are agriculturally heterogeneous in many ways, they share a common institutional history and, in certain respects, a common reform experience.
Although global annual water availability is largely stable, with small increases as a result of accelerated water cycles under climate change (Oki and Kanae 2006), the demand on water resources has grown substantially over the past 50 years, due
The challenges posed by the water–food–energy nexus have been well documented.
A cultivated planet in 2010 - Part 2: The global gridded agricultural-production maps
Data on global agricultural production are usually available as statistics at administrative units, which does not give any diversity and spatial patterns; thus they are less informative for subsequent spatially explicit agricultural and environme
This is the third round of the Bangladesh Integrated Household Survey (BIHS).
The Feed the Future Phase One Zone of Influence (ZOI) Endline Survey was implemented by IFPRI through Bangladesh Integrated Household Survey (BIHS) 2018-2019.
The purpose of the US Global Food Security Strategy (GFSS) 2018/2019 baseline survey in Bangladesh is to provide the U.S.
