Hardcover. Condition: Very Good. Hardcover, xl+275 pages, NOT ex-library. Clean and bright throughout, with unmarked text, free of inscriptions and stamps; firmly bound. Boards show minor wear. Issued without a dust jacket. -- Due to many challenges, agriculture production potential is expected to be seriously affected; thus, increasing food insecurity and hunger in many already affected regions (especially in Africa). In this context, sustainable agriculture is highly recommended as an eco-system approach where soil, water, plants, environment and living organisms live in harmony. Innovative technologies and research should be developed to ensure sustainable agriculture and productivity using modern irrigation systems, improved varieties, soil quality, etc. In the meantime, the preservation of natural environment should be based on resource conservation technologies and best management practices. This book not only raises the serious ethical and social issues underlying the huge environmental problems, but also aims at presenting successful experiences from all over the world in relation with sustainable farming, sustainable management of water and land resources, and innovative processes in livestock production. It also aims at providing inputs to decision making processes and encouraging the transfer of relevant know-how, technologies and expertise to different countries where similar agro-climatic conditions may exist; thus saving precious resources and promoting sustainable agricultural development as a relevant approach to tackle the food security challenge. Finally, the book focuses on the paradigmatic and policy dimensions and call for an innovative approach by analyzing the key themes in a complex interrelated manner. -- Contents: I Sustainable Use of Land Resources as a Potential for Sustainable Agricultural Development / Land Resource Governance from a Sustainability & Rural Development Perspective; Land-Grabbing & Potential Implications for World Food Security; Turning Adversity Into Advantage for Food Security Through Improving Soil Quality & Providing Production Systems for Marginal Saline Lands: ICBA Perspectives & Approach; Development of New Technological Approach to Mitigate Salinization; Reforestation: Quality Improvement of Contaminated Mining Soil; Policy Framework for Sustainable Utilisation of Farmland for Waterberg District Municipality in South Africa; Zooecological Remediation of Technogen Faulted Soil in Industrial Region of Ukraine Steppe Zone; Transcultural Gardens: Proposal for Exploitation of Urban Voids as Intensively Productive Land & as a Method of Urbanization of Minorities: Case Studies Demonstrating Design Tools & Managing Methodology; II Sustainable Management of Water Resources as a Prerequisite for Sustainable Agriculture Development / Sustainable Rural Development & Participatory Approach by On-Farm Water Management Techniques; Sustainable Water Management for Irrigated Rice Production; Reduction of Water Losses by Use of Alternative Irrigation Techniques in the Aral Sea Drainage Basin; III Recent Innovative Processes in Agricultural Production / Use of Surface Modified Inorganic Nano Materials as Slow Release Nitrogen Fertilizer; Organic Fertilizer Use in Northeastern Thailand: Analysis of Some Factors Affecting Farmers' Attitudes; Imitating Nature to Enrich Waste with New Values & Use It as a New Resource; IV Recent Innovative Processes in Livestock Production / Farm Animal Breeding: Implications of Existing & New Technologies; Animal Husbandry in Focus of Sustainability; Effect of Urea-Treated Sorghum Stover Supplemented with Local Protein Sources on Performance of Sheep; Evaluation of Spineless Cactus (Opuntia Ficus-indicus) as an Alternative Feed & Water Source for Animals During Dry Season in Eritrea; Comparative Feeding Value of Halophyte as Alternative Animal Feed for Small Ruminants in Eritrea; Effect of Feeding Ensilages of Poultry Litter with Leftover Bread on Body Weight of Barka Cattle; Postface; Index.

Buch. Condition: Neu. Druck auf Anfrage Neuware - Printed after ordering - This volume is the outcome of an international cooperation between 73 scientists, experts, and practitioners from many countries, disciplines, and professional areas. As a part of a series of CERES publications, the volume attempts to contribute to the scientific debate about the food-biodiversity-climate nexus by developing a comprehensive region-specific and broader global understanding of the linkages between these areas, especially in the context of Global South. Instead of providing only modern science-based solutions for the nexus related challenges, the volume covers case studies that present mixed solutions, offering the use of traditional ecological knowledge in combination with modern science for both resilience and sustainability. This is increasingly instrumental in shaping the needed response options regarding the economic, social, and environmental future of the world. Based on a multi-regional and cross-sectoral analysis, the approach consists of: assessing the differentnatural and anthropogenic factors currently affecting ecosystems and their services, especially the impacts of climate change; highlighting the different linkages between the state of biodiversity and food systems in many contexts and scales; and exploring the various response mechanisms to effectively manage the implications of such linkages. Most chapters provide inputs for future relevant research and policy agendas.

Taschenbuch. Condition: Neu. Druck auf Anfrage Neuware - Printed after ordering - This book arises from a 2011 international conference entitled Climate Change, Agri-Food, Fisheries and Ecosystems: Reinventing Research, Innovation, and Policy Agendas for an Environmentally and Socially-Balanced Growth (ICCAFFE2011), organized by the North-South Center for Social Sciences (NRCS) in collaboration with the Deutsche Gesellschaft für Internationale Zusammenarbeit (GIZ) GmbH, Germany and the Institute for Research and Development (IRD), France. Coverage focuses on the agricultural sector and helps improve understanding of the relationships between agriculture and the environment and between human communities and nature, so as to sustainably manage agricultural development. The contributors analyze the interdependence between sustainable agricultural development and environmental, economic and social dynamics; assess the impacts of soil degradation on agricultural productivity; present ways to enhance livestock production and recommend mechanisms for managing links between agro-biodiversity, climate change and livelihoods. Part I examines sustainable agriculture development and environmental, economic and social dynamics, addressing topics such as global climate change, agriculture and challenges including socio-economic factors, adaptation, poverty reduction and water management. Part II covers the impacts of soil degradation on agricultural productivity and discusses the use of expert systems to assess and manage degraded lands, agricultural productivity, land suitability and rehabilitation. Part III focuses on livestock production enhancements, such as feed resources and supplemental feeds for animals and capacity building for women in dairy management. Part IV shares the outcomes of research in agro-biodiversity, climate change and livelihoods, addressing topics such as co-management of forests, carbon consumption models, biodiversity conservation and carbon sequestration and scarce mangrove forests. Current environmental and agro-ecologicalresearch focuses on understanding the cause-consequence relationships between specific agricultural practices and land use and the responses at different levels of ecosystems. This book is intended to contribute to this discussion.

First Edition
Hardcover. Condition: new. Hardcover. This contributed book, as a part of a series of CERES publications, provides a multi-regional and cross-sectoral analysis of the interlinkages, challenges, and emerging responses in the areas of water security, climate change, and food systems, especially in a context marked by severe implications of the COVID-19 pandemic, increased climate vulnerability of many regions already water stressed, and an ambitious global action aiming at curbing climate change and restoring ecosystem. In the first set of chapters, the water, food, and environmental/climate security nexus is explored theoretically and by reference to empirical research covering many regions and sectors. In another set of chapters, the impacts of climate change on water resources and water-stressed regions are identified along with their implications for food systems and security. Other chapters of the volume identify the emerging solutions to the nexus challenges, mainly adaptation and mitigation options, governance and management approaches, technological and economic solutions, innovative farming and water management practices, etc. Most chapters scheduled for publication address timely and future-oriented topics, are based on empirical research particularly done in water-constrained and climate vulnerable countries from Asia, Africa, and the MENA region, and provide policy-oriented inputs and recommendations to guide change processes at multiple scales.

Buch. Condition: Neu. Druck auf Anfrage Neuware - Printed after ordering - Climate change is reshaping the planet, its ecosystems, and the evolution of human societies. Related impacts and disasters are triggering significant shifts in the inextricably interconnected human and ecological systems with unprecedented potential implications. These shifts not only threaten survival at species and community levels, but are also emerging drivers of conflicts, human insecurity, and displacement both within and across national borders. Taking these shifting dynamics into account, particularly in the Anthropocene era, this book provides an analysis of the climate-conflict-migration nexus from human security and resilience perspectives. The core approach of the volume consists of unpacking the key dynamics of the nexus between climate change, conflict, and displacement and exploring the various local and global response mechanisms to address the nexus, assess their effectiveness, and identify their implications for the nexus itself. It includes both conceptual research and empirical studies reporting lessons learned from many geographical, environmental, social, and policy settings.

Taschenbuch. Condition: Neu. Druck auf Anfrage Neuware - Printed after ordering - This volume brings together insights on the interactions between environmental change and human security in the Middle East and Africa. These regions face particular challenges in relation to environmental degradation, the decline of natural resources and consequent risks to current and future human security.The chapters provide topical analysis from a range of disciplines on the theory, discourse, policy and practice of responding to global environmental change and threats to human security.Case studies from Morocco, Tunisia, Egypt, Turkey, Iraq and Syria provide empirical evidence, with a focus section dedicated to the critical issue of water resources and water security in the region.The contributions demonstrate above all that the risks posed to human security arise through multiple and interconnected processes operating across diverse spatial and temporal scales. The complexity of these processes requires new ways of thinking and intervening. As a contribution, the current volume provides engaging insights from theory and practice for those seeking to address the challenges of environmental change.
