means of agricultural production
The Risk of Drought Impacts for Agriculture (RDrI-Agri) indicator that is implemented in the Global Drought Observatory (GDO) of the Copernicus Emergency Management Service, is used for determining the area more likely...
This report represents a second step in structuring existing knowledge about agroecology as farming and food system in support of the EC Knowledge Centre on Food and Nutrition Security (https://ec.europa.eu/knowledge4policy/global-food-nutrition-security_en)...
Climate change is becoming more and more remarkable which has an obvious impact on crop yields all over the world. Future climate scenario data was...
Greenhouse gas emissions from global production and use of nitrogen synthetic fertilisers in agriculture
The global agri-food system relies on synthetic nitrogen (N) fertilisation to increase crop yields, yet the use of synthetic N fertiliser is unsustainable. In this study we estimate...
Methane’s short atmospheric life has important implications for the design of global climate change mitigation policies in agriculture. Three different agricultural economic models are...
Owing to its short atmospheric life, methane’s contribution to agricultural emissions and climate change may vary substantially depending on the temporal scale considered. Based on projections...
Global bioenergy with carbon capture and storage potential is largely constrained by sustainable irrigation
Bioenergy with carbon capture and storage (BECCS) is crucial in many stringent climate scenarios. Although irrigation can enhance BECCS potential, where and to what extent it...
Integrated farming with intercropping increases food production while reducing environmental footprint
Food security has been a significant issue for the livelihood of smallholder family farms in highly populated regions and countries. Industrialized farming in more developed countries has...
Drought and heat stress affect global wheat production and food security. Since these climate hazards are expected to increase in frequency and intensity due to anthropogenic climate...
