This article examines the effect of remittance income on deforestation in Nepal during 2001–2010 using satellite-based land use data and a nationwide household survey.

This survey was conducted to collect baseline data for a randomized control trial preceding the introduction of improved energy cookstoves in the Dedza District in the Central Region of Malawi.

This survey was conducted to collect endline data for a randomized control trial study. The endline survey was conducted two years after the introduction of improved energy cookstoves in the Dedza District in the Central Region of Malawi.

This survey was conducted to collect endline data for a randomized control trial, two years after the introduction of the improved cookstoves in the Angonia District of Mozambique.

This survey was conducted to collect baseline data for a randomized control trial preceding the introduction of improved energy cookstoves in the Angonia district in Mozambique.

Several factors contribute to the low level of improved variety use in Ethiopia.

Many smallholder farmers, especially women and other marginalized groups, face difficulty in accessing loans and other forms of credit.

Small-scale irrigation is expanding rapidly in parts of the world, especially sub-Saharan Africa, offering smallholder farmers an opportunity to improve their livelihoods, diets, and resilience to climate change among other benefits.

By 2050, the United Nations projects that 68 percent of the world population will live in cities (UN DESA 2019).

A relatively large body of literature has documented the welfare effects of smallholder farmers’ participation in single-commodity output markets.

Several factors contribute to the low level of improved variety use in Ethiopia.

In recent decades the agricultural sector in Ethiopia has seen a sustained period of growth, which is believed to have contributed in turn to economic growth and poverty reduction.

Agrochemicals are overused in China. One strategy to reduce agrochemical use is to increase farm size because of the potential effect of economy of scale.

Credit constraint is considered by many as one of the key barriers to adoption of modern agricultural technologies, such as chemical fertilizer, improved seeds, and irrigation technologies, among smallholders.

Farmers’ organizations (FOs), such as associations, cooperatives, self-help and women’s groups, are common in developing countries and provide services that are widely viewed as contributing to income and productivity for small-scale producers.

Irrigation is an important strategy to increase agricultural productivity, improve nutrition security and reduce climate-related risks in rural Africa, but adoption of this technology has been low.

This report examines six agricultural production and processing opportunities for rural areas: horticulture irrigation, grain milling, injera baking, milk cooling, bread baking, and coffee washing.

International crop‐related research as conducted by the CGIAR uses crop modeling for a variety of purposes.
