Discover Sustainability, Год журнала: 2024, Номер 5(1)

Опубликована: Ноя. 27, 2024

This study aims to investigate the repercussions of climate change on crop production, focusing cereals, pulses, oilseeds, and vegetables, explore factors that influence productions in major agricultural producing zones Ethiopia. Employing One-step system GMM Two-step methodologies, analyzes production dynamics from 2003/04 2021/22 within 21 selected spanning Amhara, Oromia, Benishangul Gumuz, SNNP, Sidama regions. Key influencing cereal including lagged number private peasant holders, land area, fertilizer application, precipitation, maximum average temperature, relative humidity, regional are identified. Notably, precipitation emerges as a critical determinant affecting oilseeds negatively. The underscores imperative for diversifying crops reducing dependence rain-fed agriculture. It proposes leveraging erratic rainfall patterns by constructing small-sized irrigation dams capitalize excess water during heavy seasons. Moreover, adoption temperature-resistant varieties collaborative efforts with local administrations at various administrative levels recommended expand irrigated land, thereby bolstering resilience against variability safeguarding

Abstract The Ranganadi river basin, spanning a catchment area of 2335 km 2 in the North Lakhimpur region Assam is one worst flood‐affected areas Eastern India. basin densely populated and land around this extensively used for cultivation. Progressive migration banklines leads to loss cultivable land. Breach embankments protecting agricultural fields during monsoon, as well presence infertile sand agriculture are some most dominant facets riverine hazards directly connected with livelihood study objective research assess vulnerability population residing these flood plains impacts casting, utilizing Livelihood Vulnerability Index (LVI) approach. included 377 households, comprehensive analysis was carried out. revealed varying degrees 0.306 (socio‐demographic profile), 0.489 (livelihood strategies), 0.413 (social networks). Sensitivity values were 0.495 (health), 0.487 (food security), 0.368 (water availability), 0.391 (psychological factors). Exposure rated high at 0.494, indicating natural disasters climate variability. These highlighted vulnerable components due disaster helped suggest reduction measures. novelty based on result that LVI meticulously formulated adapted specifically area. This localized approach allowed unique socio‐economic environmental dynamics affected be captured very well.

Model Tindakan Iklim Untuk Negara Berkembang (Indonesia) Melalui Metode Adaptasi Dan Mitigasi Yang Terintegrasi

Опубликована: Дек. 30, 2024

Climate action is the 13th Sustaianble development Goals (SDG’s) target, where countries around world have agreed to fulfil it through concrete steps. Surely, these efforts will not be uniform among countries, including Indonesia as developing country. Well known high costs of supporting climate actions biggest problem. However challenge even greater because state with highest gas emissions in Southeast Asia, 3 4 times than other ASEAN member states. Therefore, urgent provide recommendations for regarding models. This study used socio-legal method. The results are: firstly, change has adverse effects Indonesia, such levels extreme poverty, vulnerability food sources on which Indonesian people heavily depend, an increase natural disasters, impacts coastal communities, and deforestation rates. Secondly, effectiveness efficiency achieving targets one appropriate model or concept suitable a form synergy across aspects sectoral, are based Adaptation Mitigation Change. can serve reference worldwide.

Influence of Natural Risks and Non-Agricultural Income on Agricultural Trusteeship Decisions in Northeast China

Foods, Год журнала: 2024, Номер 13(13), С. 2024 - 2024

Опубликована: Июнь 26, 2024

As the main service mode and management of socialized service, agricultural production trusteeship services (APTS) are an important way to realize tight link between farmers modern development, which is highly for ensuring national food security. By constructing a utility model farmers, this paper deduces decision-making mechanism farmers’ APTS from dual natural risk non-agricultural employment income (NAEI) uses survey data 956 in three northeastern provinces verify empirical results by using multivariate logit (Mlogit) propensity score matching (PSM) methods. The research shows that hinders choice APTS; NAEI has positive impact on APST, increase weakens negative effect APTS, enhanced moderating effect. In addition, scale heterogeneity analysis revealed impacts different scales significantly different. adjustment greatest small-scale followed medium-scale farmers. view this, government should stabilize nonagricultural market improve opportunities organizations transfer risks insurance system. According differences promotion policies formulated, expansion deepening proposed further promote development consolidate foundation security China.

Do agricultural credit, wheat, and rice production impact environmental quality? Novel evidence from China’s mega agricultural regions

Frontiers in Sustainable Food Systems, Год журнала: 2024, Номер 8

Опубликована: Авг. 8, 2024

Gaining a comprehensive understanding of the carbon emissions cycle in atmosphere resulting from agricultural activities is crucial for assessing its influence on environmental quality. This study used panel datasets covering period 1990–2022 to investigate wheat and rice production quality six mega provinces China namely Anhui, Hebei, Hubei, Henan, Jiangsu, Sichuan. Study employed several econometric approaches such as Cross-Sectional Dependency tests, unit root cointegration Panel Mean Group Autoregressive Distributed Lag (PMG-ARDL), Quantile (PQ) Least Square (PLS) regression analysis robustness findings. The empirical findings PMG-ARDL model reveal that positively increases CO 2 long run. variables fertilizers usage, water consumption credit also have positive impact emission Further, short-term results all concerned contribute increase emissions. PQR illustrate production, fertilizer consumption, GDP significant across quantiles. Additionally, PLS outcomes show association between productivity, credit, Dumitrescu Hurlin (D–H) causality unidirectional among: → pesticides use, temperature, GDP. A bidirectional causal was found between: ↔ credit. These drivers agriculture provide valuable insights policymakers aiming mitigate impacts while promoting sustainable agriculture, resilience, financial support encourage green technology implement robust monitoring mechanisms protect environment sustainability.
