Pollinator deficits, food consumption, and consequences for human health: A modeling study
Background: Animal pollination supports agricultural production for many healthy foods, such as fruits, vegetables, nuts, and legumes, that provide key nutrients and protect against noncommunicable disease.
This factsheet presents recent data on the agricultural research system of Belize, primarily focusing on key financial, human resource, institutional, and output indicators, while also highlighting relevant trends, challenges, and institutional ch

As COVID-19 vaccines are becoming available, governments will need to assess the number and location of the most vulnerable people within their populations.
As COVID-19 vaccines are becoming available, governments will need to assess the number and location of the most vulnerable people within their populations.
In anticipation of the development of a safe and effective COVID-19 vaccine—the distribution of which will be a complex and sensitive issue—governments will need to assess the number and location of the most vulnerable people within their populati
Increasing the efficiency of agricultural production—getting more output from the same amount of resources—is critical for improving food security. To measure the efficiency of agricultural systems, we use total factor productivity (TFP).
This policy note summarizes research that assessed the likely impact of climate change on aflatoxin contamination in groundnuts (in Burkina Faso, Niger, and Nigeria) and in maize (in Burkina Faso, Honduras, Guatemala, Nepal, Niger, and Nigeria), and

Evaluating risk of aflatoxin field contamination from climate change using new modules inside DSSAT
Aflatoxins affect the health of close to 70 percent of the population of the world through contaminated food.
This paper explores the impact of climate change on agriculture in Nicaragua using biophysical models and a bioeconomic model. It also examines differences in projections of key climate models.
discussion paper
Climate change, agriculture, and adaptation options for Honduras
We use both biophysical and bioeconomic models to assess the impact of climate change on Honduran agriculture out to 2050.
This report finds that by 2050 the negative effect of climate change on agricultural productivity in El Salvador will be among the highest in the region.
This discussion paper evaluates the likely impact of climate change on agriculture in Costa Rica out to 2050.
Using a variety of inputs, IFPRI's Spatial Production Allocation Model (SPAM) uses a cross-entropy approach to make plausible estimates of crop distribution within disaggregated units.
