Abstract:
This study aims to explore the relationship between urbanization and agricultural development in China, focusing on the mechanisms through which urbanization influences agricultural sustainability. It investigates the role of urbanization in promoting agricultural development through resource agglomeration, technological advancement, and market demand expansion. Using panel data from 31 Chinese provinces between 2007 and 2021, this study applies the entropy method to construct comprehensive evaluation indices for agricultural environments and resources.

Abstract:
AbstractIn a country like Ethiopia where the vast majority of the populations are employed in agriculture, land is an important economic resource for the development of rural livelihoods. Agricultural land in peri-urban areas is, however, transformed into built-up regions through horizontal urban expansion that has an effect on land use value. In recent years Ethiopia has been experiencing rapid urbanization, which has led to an ever-increasing demand for land in peri-urban areas for housing and other nonagricultural activities that pervades agricultural land. There is a high demand for inform

Abstract:
Urbanization refers to the migration of people from rural areas to urban areas, which is characterized by increased infrastructure and population density. Many factors, including population growth, economic development, industrial expansion, rural-to-urban migration, and regulatory changes, cause urbanization. The primary emphasis of this study was the impact of urbanization on changes in agricultural land use in Kicukiro, Rwanda. The factors affecting urbanization in Kicukiro District were explored, together with the effects of urbanization on the district's agricultural land cover change. Th

Abstract:
Urbanization, climate change, and agricultural systems are intricately linked, posing significant challenges to global sustainability. With urban populations projected to reach 64% in developing and 86% in developed countries by 2050, the expansion of cities is transforming land use, impacting greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions, and altering food production patterns. This growth, particularly evident in Asia and Africa, intensifies the demand for resources while encroaching on agricultural land. Global urban expansion by 2030 is projected to cause a 1.8-2.4% loss of croplands, with 80% of this los

Several problems have emerged as a result of urban expansion or the connection of urban areas with rural areas. This process has led to the urbanization of rural areas, and to have overlapping edges and margins of areas, which were outside the basic design of the city. Accordingly, the present research assumes that the accelerating growth of Baghdad population has contributed significantly to the process of unplanned urbanization. Thus, the study aims to examine the factors that have led to an increase of urban sprawl at the expense of the agricultural land. The study has thus adopted the desc

AbstractRecent international—UN-Habitat and European Environment Agency—and Italian reports have pointed out that urbanization is incessantly expanding at the expense of biodiversity and of rural lands. The radical growth of land consumption and change of land-use contribute to the increase of territorial risks and vulnerability. In particular, such phenomena are more visible within the peri-urban interface, considered as hybrid and malleable areas straddling between city and countryside realities.

However, four significant facts profoundly differentiate Brazilian and Chinese agriculture. First, while Brazil has one of the world's most liberal agricultural sectors, Chinese agriculture remains under strong state intervention, particularly in its foreign trade.

Abstract:
This document discusses Latin America's dual role as a conservator of natural resources and producer of agricultural services. The author addresses the expansion of agriculture across the region and intensification of agriculture in Latin America. The environmental impact of this expansion and intensification is a major focus of this study as well as an assessment of agricultural and ecosystem services.

Abstract:
Carbon emissions have a positive association with Uzbekistan’s GDP, suggesting that economic growth increases emissions. Increased export of goods and services from Uzbekistan causes an increase in CO2 emissions. Investment in renewable energy is crucial to Uzbekistan's green economy transition. Unplanned urbanization increases CO2 emissions, while expansion of forest areas decreases CO2 emissions. Innovations in green technologies are key enablers of the transition towards greener economies.

Abstract:
Financial inclusion is a key driver of productivity in Nepal, yet its impact remains uneven across provinces. This study examines the relationship between financial inclusion and total factor productivity (TFP), revealing a positive correlation. While government efficiency and urbanization enhance productivity, human development shows no direct impact. The findings highlight the need for targeted financial policies, digital banking expansion, and regulatory reforms to ensure inclusive economic growth.

Full text
Abstract:
This document describes a new source of inputs, based on FAO data, that allows us to estimate agricultural output targets on 133 regions of the GTAP 10A Data Base. This approach allows to overcome several limitations present under the current agricultural production targeting (APT) processing. First, a significant expansion in the regional coverage is achieved, as the number of regions undergoing APT more than doubles. Second, the detailed commodity classification of the FAO dataset allows for a more accurate mapping to the GTAP Data Base sectors. Third, a better commodity coverage in the FAO

Abstract:
The purpose of this paper is to analyze a program that extends credit cards to agricultural input suppliers and rural producers in Costa Rica and to determine whether this program is financially viable and potentially replicable in other rural areas of Latin America. A credit card program is very innovative and unusual for a rural setting. Normally, credit cards have been promoted in urban areas with business firms and salaried employees who have steady cash flows. Credit cards in rural areas are not as common because potential clients, especially agricultural producers, have more seasonal and

Abstract:
This paper discusses the feedbacks between climate change, deforestation, and agricultural expansion and presents scenarios of agricultural demand and forest conservation and restoration policies in Brazil. In addition, it discusses the implications of these scenarios for food and befoul supply, the provision of ecosystem services, and climate change mitigation. Modeling these scenarios provides an integrated assessment of plausible pathways for achieving the goals of the National Climate Change Plan, for making an objective source of information available for the debate on the Forest Code, an

Abstract:
Approximately 90% of agriculture in sub-Saharan Africa is rainfed, making it highly vulnerable to impacts of climate change and variability, with significant implications for agrarian communities. If effectively implemented, the African Union's Framework for Irrigation Development and Agricultural Water Management (IDAWM) has the potential to catalyse food systems transformation by fostering systems integration, mitigating environmental trade-offs and enhancing climate change adaptation and mitigation. Addressing and balancing trade-offs that may arise from irrigation expansion - such as reduc
