1. Exploring Crop Suitability in Senegal Across Global Warming Scenarios: an In-silico ApproachFood production systems in Africa are fragile and vulnerable to climate change. In this context, rising temperatures are the primary cause of the anticipated negative climate change impacts on crop yields. Future yield reductions poses a challenging setting for smallholders to attain self-sufficiency, but new opportunities for managing the risk via implementationof decisions towards mitigate these negative effects from an economic, nutritional, and productive standpoint. Therefore, the object... A. Carcedo, I. Ciampitti |
2. Potential for Improving African Smallholder Cereal Farming Using Sentinel-2A Spectral ReflectanceCereal crops are critical for African smallholder farmers seeking to improve regional food availability, yet many struggle with low productivity from non optimal practices. This present study evaluated the possibility of using the satellite Sentinel-2 Multispectral Instrument data to inform management techniques tailored to African small-scale cereal farms’ local conditions. Improved practices maize, wheat, and rice plots were established respectively in Togo, Tunisia, and Tanzania... A. Biaou, S. Phillips |
