Adoption of smart farm networks: A translational process to inform digital agricultural technologies
Due to natural phenomena like global warming and climate change, agricultural production is increasingly faced with threats that transcend farm boundaries. Management practices at the landscape or community level are often required to adequately respond to these new challenges (e.g., pest migration). Such decision-making at a community or beyond-farm level—i.e., practices that are jointly developed by farmers within a community—can be aided by co…

Sustainable innovation to cope with climate change and market variability in the Bolivian Highlands
This study explores how sustainable innovation and the collaborative learning process can contribute to resilience in the Bolivian Highlands, as a response to shocks caused by climate change and market variability. Specifically, we focus on the collective, localized, and embedded efforts of three rural communities. The communities under study participated in a mixed top down-bottom up collaborative learning system, which relied on indigenous know…
A comparative analysis of media reporting of perceived risks and benefits of genetically modified crops and foods in Kenyan and international newspapers
We empirically examine the reporting on biotechnology in Kenyan and international newspapers between 2010 and early 2014. We identify news articles that reported on biotechnology and analyze their use of words to determine whether there is a balance in the reporting of perceived risks and benefits. We also consider how the sources used in news articles and how the publication of the Séralini study of rats fed genetically modified maize affect the…

Impacts of Cultivation and Fallow Length on Soil Carbon and Nitrogen Availability in the Bolivian Andean Highland Region
Inclusion of periods of unmanaged or natural fallowing is an important soil management practice in the potato-based cropping systems of the resource-poor Andean highland region (Altiplano) of Bolivia. However, in recent years the area in fallow and the fallow length are being reduced due to greater land use intensity and competing land uses. The objectives of this study were to determine the effects of the length of cropping and fallowing periods…

Laggards or Leaders: Conservers of Traditional Agricultural Knowledge in Bolivia
Many sustainable agricultural practices are based on local and traditional farming knowledge. This article examines the conservation and loss of three traditional practices in the Bolivian Altiplano that agronomic research has shown increase the resiliency of small farmers in the face of climate-related risks. These practices are the use of manure, the use of local forecasts and risk-management strategies, and the preservation of crop biodiversit…
Factors Affecting the Job Satisfaction of Latino/a Immigrants in the Midwest
This study examined the job satisfaction of 253 Latino/a newcomers in three rural communities in the Midwest. Specifically, the authors explored the effects of ethnic identity, Anglo acculturation, Latino/a acculturation, perceptions of the community (social relations, discrimination/racism, and language pressures), job tenure, work hours, and salary on participants’ job satisfaction. Results of a hierarchical regression analysis indicated that e…
Recreation and agroforestry: Examining new dimensions of multifunctionality in family farms
Making Sense of Twenty-First-Century Climate Change in the Altiplano: Observed Trends and CMIP3 Projections
A synthesis is presented of the first phase in regionalizing climate projections for the Altiplano, an elevated central Andean plateau in Bolivia and Peru. A prerequisite to downscaling is analysis of the large-scale forcing provided by global, multimodel climate scenarios. Global climate models in the Coupled Model Intercomparison Project (CMIP3) archive are employed to qualitatively evaluate the direction of change in twenty-first-century proje…

Andean Livelihood Strategies and the Livestock Portfolio
Rural livelihoods in the Andean region evolve in a setting shaped not only by the actions of people, but also by other factors often outside their control, such as climate variation, political and institutional change, and markets. A household economic portfolio approach framed in the context of rural livelihoods allows us to look at the patterns of change in an Andean community through the 1990s, as it adjusts to drought events, changing market …
Farmers, the Practice of Farming and the Future of Agroforestry: An Application of Bourdieu's Concepts of Field and Habitus
Agroforestry, the practice of raising crops and trees together in ways that are mutually beneficial, provides farmers with an alternative to more conventional farming practices. In this paper, we apply Bourdieu's concepts of 'field' and 'habitus' in an attempt to better understand the practice of farming and the role that agroforestry may have in farming systems. Analysis is based on qualitative and quantitative interviews of farmers and other ke…
