Author(s): ARENAS-CALLE, L. N.; HEINEMANN, A. B.; SILVA, M. A. S. da; SANTOS, A. B. dos; RAMIREZ-VILLEGAS, J.; WHITFIELD, S.; CHALLINOR, A. J. Irrigation strategies are keys to fostering sustainable and climate-resilient rice production by increasing efficiency, building resilience and reducing Greenhouse Gas (GHG) emissions. These strategie... ... |
Author(s): RAMIREZ-VILLEGAS, J.; MOLERO MILAN, A.; ALEXANDROV, N.; ASSENG, S.; CHALLINOR, A. J.; CROSSA, J.; VAN EEUWIJK, F.; GHANEM, M. E.; GRENIER, C.; HEINEMANN, A. B.; WANG, J.; JULIANA, P.; KEHEL, Z.; KHOLOVA, J; KOO, J.; PEQUENO, D.; QUIROZ, R.; REBOLLEDO, M. C.; SUKUMARAN, S.; VADEZ, V.; WHITE, J. W.; REYNOLDS, M. Crop improvement efforts aiming at increasing crop production (quantity, quality) and adapting to climate change have been subject of active research over the past years. But, the question remains 'to... ... |
Author(s): PORTALANZA, D.; HORGAN, F. G.; POHLMANN, V.; CUADRA, S. V.; TORRES-ULLOA, M.; ALAVA, E.; FERRAZ, S.; DURIGON, A. Abstract: Rice (Oryza sativa L.) is the main staple food of more than 50% of the world´s population. However, global production may need to increase by more than 70% before 2050 to meet global food re... ... |
Author(s): SILVA, V. C. DA; SANTANA, M. DA S.; PARENTE, A. G.; GONDIM, R. S.; SILVEIRA, C. DA S.; SALVIANO, A. M.; DEUS, T. R. V. DE; VALLADARES, G. S.; GIONGO, V. Intensive melon cultivation is based on conventional monoculture models that can inefficiently use natural resources, which, combined with inadequate management, contribute to climate change. The main... ... |

An accurate estimation of crop yield under climate change scenarios is essential to quantify our ability to feed a growing population and develop agronomic adaptations to meet future food de... ... |
Author(s): GROSSI, M. C.; JUSTINO, F.; RODRIGUES, R. de A.; ANDRADE, C. L. T. Based on sensitivity analyses the effect of changing in climate on sorghum has been investigated. This has been achieved by conducting crop modeling experiments carried out with weather observations a... ... |
Author(s): MAIA, A. de H. N.; MEINKE, H. For applied climate risk management the probability distributions of decision variables such as rainfall, likely dates of climatic events (e.g. frost, onset of the wet season), crop yields or economic... ... |
Author(s): MAIA, A. de H. N.; MEINKE, H. For climate risk management, cumulative distribution functions (CDFs) are an important source of information. They are ideally suited to compare probabilistic forecasts of primary (e.g. rainfall) or s... ... |
Author(s): ARAUJO, L. C.; SANTOS, P. M.; RODRIGUES, D.; PEZZOPANE, J. R. M.; CRUZ, P. G.; OLIVEIRA, P. P. A. Currently, Brazil has the world?s largest commercial herd of cattle, much of which is raised in extensive grazing farms. The area occupied by pastures in Brazil is approximately 172 million hectares,... ... |
Author(s): GUARINO, E. de S. G.; VERDI, M.; VIBRANS, A.; ROCHA, F. S. Earth climate has changed significantly in the last century and the different models indicate that it will continue to change over the next decades, even if the emission of greenhouse gases stop immed... ... |
