Building and Delivering Sustainability Solutions: Insights, Methods, and Case-Studies
Author: Nathaniel K. Newlands
Publisher: Frontiers Media SA
ISBN: 2889630390
Category :
Languages : en
Pages : 191
Book Description
Sustaining ecosystems to deliver what people need and value, while mitigating and adapting to global climate change and extreme event impacts, presents a complex set of environmental, economic, and social challenges in ensuring resilient and sustainable food production. The Climate Smart Landscape (CSL) approach has emerged as an integrated management strategy to address the increasing pressures on agricultural production, ecosystem conservation, rural livelihoods, climate change mitigation and adaptation. Deploying cheaper, more accurate, and efficient technology enables the harnessing of big data for use in solving sustainability challenges. With improved integrated analytical frameworks, statistical approaches, spatially- explicit models and indices, the CSL approach can be further developed and applied for more resilient, productive, and sustainable ecosystems. This eBook brings together original research, review, hypothesis, theory, and technology report articles, involving 87 authors from 9 countries across Asia, Europe, and North America. These articles present new methodological and technological innovation, findings, and insights across four themes: (1) landscape productivity and crop suitability, (2) variable crop requirements for water and nutrients, (3) crop health status, phenology, and phenotyping, and (4) crop disease assessment and prediction under integrated pest management (IPM).

Demands On Rural Lands
Author: Chris Cocklin
Publisher: Routledge
ISBN: 0429712685
Category : Social Science
Languages : en
Pages : 286
Book Description
Planning for the use of rural lands in the developed countries of the world has become an increasingly contentious process as resources become more limited and conflicting needs grow stronger. The critical questions are "Which is more important—agriculture, livestock production, recreation, industry, or urban housing?" and "Who decides priorities and responsibilities for use?" The capacity of the land to meet all of the demands placed upon it, without serious environmental disruption, has become a major concern for all. Recognizing the exigencies of the situation, the contributors define and evaluate the theoretical and methodological frameworks within which rural land-use problems can be analyzed. In , the discussions focus on the identification and characterization of resources and competing users of rural lands, stressing that a careful articulation of the problem is essential to effective planning. is aimed at developing appropriate information bases useful in planning for the problems related to the management of these rural lands. The discussion of policy options for rural resource use in builds upon the material in the previous two sections to provide a framework for an analysis of rural resource use.
