1. Using Geospatial Data to Assess How Climate Change May Affect Land Suitability for Agriculture ProductionFinding solutions to the challenge of sustainably feeding the world’s growing population is a pressing research need that cuts across many disciplines including using geospatial data. One possible area could be developing agricultural frontiers. Frontiers are defined as land that is currently not cultivated but that may become suitable for agriculture under climate change. Climate change may drive large-scale geographic shifts in agriculture, including expansion in cultivation at the thermal... K. Kc, L. Hannah, P. Roehrdanz, C. Donatti, E. Fraser, A. Berg, L.

2. Data Power: Understanding the Impacts of Precision Agriculture on Social RelationsPrecision agriculture has been greatly promoted for the potential of these technologies to sustainably intensify food production through increasing yields and profits, decreasing the environmental impacts of production, and improving food safety and transparency in the food system through the data collected by precision agriculture technologies. However, little attention has been given to the potential of these technologies to impact social relations within the agricultural industry. ... E. Duncan, E. Fraser |
