  • Rooting for food security in Sub-Saharan Africa

    Open AccessNicolas Guilpart, Patricio Grassini et al.ARTICLEEnvironmental Research Letters2017

    There is a persistent narrative about the potential of Sub-Saharan Africa (SSA) to be a 'grain breadbasket' because of large gaps between current low yields and yield potential with good management, and vast land resources with adequate rainfall. However, rigorous evaluation of the extent to which soils can support high, stable yields has been limited by lack of data on rootable soil depth of sufficient quality and spatial resolution. Here we use…

  • Can sub-Saharan Africa feed itself?

    Open AccessMartin K Van Ittersum, L G J van Bussel et al.ARTICLEProceedings of the National…2016

    Significance The question whether sub-Saharan Africa (SSA) can be self-sufficient in cereals by 2050 is of global relevance. Currently, SSA is amongst the (sub)continents with the largest gap between cereal consumption and production, whereas its projected tripling demand between 2010 and 2050 is much greater than in other continents. We show that nearly complete closure of the gap between current farm yields and yield potential is needed to main…

  • Climate change impact and adaptation research requires integrated assessment and farming systems analysis: A case study in the Netherlands

    Open AccessPytrik Reidsma, J Wolf et al.ARTICLEEnvironmental Research Letters2015

    Rather than on crop modelling only, climate change impact assessments in agriculture need to be based on integrated assessment and farming systems analysis, and account for adaptation at different levels. With a case study for Flevoland, the Netherlands, we illustrate that (1) crop models cannot account for all relevant climate change impacts and adaptation options, and (2) changes in technology, policy and prices have had and are likely to have …

  • Comparing conventional and organic agriculture in Karnataka, India: Where and when can organic farming be sustainable

  • Yield gap analysis with local to global relevance—A review

    Open AccessMartin K Van Ittersum, Kenneth G Cassman et al.ARTICLEField Crops Research2013

    Yields of crops must increase substantially over the coming decades to keep pace with global food demand driven by population and income growth. Ultimately global food production capacity will be limited by the amount of land and water resources available and suitable for crop production, and by biophysical limits on crop growth. Quantifying food production capacity on every hectare of current farmland in a consistent and transparent manner is ne…

  • Integrated assessment of agricultural land use policies on nutrient pollution and sustainable development in Taihu Basin, China

    Open AccessPytrik Reidsma, Shuyi Feng et al.ARTICLEEnvironmental Science & Policy2012Citada por: 4

  • A methodology for enhanced flexibility of integrated assessment in agriculture

  • Perceptions of heatwave risks to health: Interview-based study of older people in London and Norwich, UK

    Vanessa Abrahamson, J Wolf et al.ARTICLEJournal of Public Health2008

    BACKGROUND: Most projections of climate change suggest an increased frequency of heatwaves in England over coming decades; older people are at particular risk. This could result in substantial mortality and morbidity. OBJECTIVE: To determine elderly people's knowledge and perceptions of heat-related risks to health, and of protective behaviours. METHODS: Semi-structured interviews: 73 men and women, 72-94 years, living in their own homes in Londo…

  • Urban and peri-urban agricultural production in Beijing municipality and its impact on water quality

    Open AccessJ Wolf, James M Wolf et al.ARTICLEEnvironment and Urbanization2003Citada por: 4Referencias: 1

    This paper reviews water use and water resource issues in Beijing Municipality, the main trends in the agricultural production systems in and around the city with respect to land use, input use, production and economic role, and the impacts of agricultural activities on water quality. Rapid urbanization and strong intensification of agricultural production have meant that the quantity and quality of available water resources have become matters o…
