Abstract:
The leaf epidermis of a monocotyledonous plant is a widely used model system for studying the differentiation of plant cells, as it contains readily observable specialized cells. The approach proposed in this paper uses a growing cereal leaf to study stress-induced dynamic changes in morphogenesis. In the process of formation, the linear leaf of wheat remains in the stationary growth phase for long. This fact permits us to observe a series of successive morphogenetic events recorded in the cellular structure of the mature leaf. In studying the cellular architecture of the wheat leaf epidermis, we obtained and processed confocal 3D images of wheat leaves stained with fluorescent dyes. This procedure allows an accurate morphometric description and determination of quantitative characteristics of the leaf epidermal pattern. Low temperatures are among the factors limiting the growing of crop plants in the temperate zone. In the present work, we show significant aberrations of stomatal morphogenesis in the epidermis of boot leaves of wheat varieties Saratovskaya 29 and Yanetskis Probat in response to cold stress. We found that nonfunctional stomata predominated in the zone of maximum manifestation of stress, whereas in the zones formed before and after the stress impact, the developmental anomalies come to the disturbance in the morphogenesis of subsidiary cells. In Saratovskaya 29, a significant amount of ectopic trichomes formed in rows predetermined to stoma formation. The proposed approach can provide standardized qualitative and quantitative data on stressinduced morphogenesis aberrations in wheat leaf epidermis. Subsequently, these data can be used for verification of computer models of leaf morphogenesis. Further study of the mechanisms of the effect of cold stress on morphogenesis will add to the search for additional opportunities to increase wheat yields in areas of risky agriculture.

Abstract:
p>Agricultural production in Victoria includes the dairy, lamb and mutton, grains and perennial and annual horticultural sectors, with Victorian farmers contributing a major proportion of the Australian production total in many of these sectors. All these industries are exposed in different ways to weather and climate extremes. With projected warming of approximately 0.8°C by 2030 and by 1.4–2.7°C by 2070 (emissions dependent), and most climate models indicating reduced rainfall for the Victorian region (median of model results projecting a reduction of 4% by 2030 and 6%–11% by 2070; emissions dependent), a range of sectorspecific impacts could result. Increases in extreme events, such as heatwaves (e.g. for Mildura, days >35°C could nearly double from 32 to 59 annually by 2070), bushfires and drought, as well as an increased chance of extreme rainfall are all anticipated. Increasing frequencies of extreme events have the potential to affect agricultural production more than changes to the mean climate. For example, the exceptional heatwave that occurred in south-eastern Australia during January and February 2009 resulted in unprecedented impacts, with significant heat-stress related crop losses reported at many sites. Flooding in 2011 was also very costly to Victorian farmers with many crops being lost in the floodwaters and reduced agricultural production costing an estimated Au$500–600 million. Responses to climate variability already practised by the farming sector will inform some adaptation options that will assist farmers to cope in an increasingly challenging environment. As well as taking advantage of their underlying resilience, initiatives aimed at increasing the adaptive capacity of farmers are being implemented at many levels in agricultural communities.

Abstract:
Current agricultural practices are thought to contribute to nonpoint source pollution because of large inputs of pesticides and fertilizers and intensive cultivation and crop production. Trends towards sustainable practices which involve crop rotations, alternative weed and pest control measures, use of manure as fertilizers, and crop residues can lead to improved resource management. Sustainable agricultural systems should be viewed not as a reversion to past systems but as adoption of systems which promote efficient resource management and improved efficiency in the use of natural resources. Many of the aspects currently considered to be sustainable agricultural practices will lead to decreased nonpoint source pollution on both the field and landscape scale. There are large changes in the physical, chemical, and biological factors which promote these reductions. The net result of adoption of these practices will be improved environmental quality; however, to realize this benefit will require both educational efforts and improved decision making tools to aid in the management decisions required in agriculture.

Abstract:
Dans le désert Libyque (Égypte), l'un des plus arides du monde, l'action du vent trouvant peu de limites, l'ablation et le transport éoliens sont des éléments prégnants de la morphogenèse. Au cœur de ce désert, les oasis de la dépression de Kharga, nées de l'artésianisme et des activités humaines, constituent au contraire, par la profusion de l'eau et de la végétation, des secteurs où les processus de dépôt sont renforcés. L'imbrication entre une région désertique (zone-source de sédiments) et des sites oasiens (zones de dépôt), où s'appliquent des processus opposés, maximise les dynamiques éoliennes et leur impact morphogénétique. Il en découle la formation des paysages du vent, que cette thèse vise à décrire, comprendre et expliquer. Mobilisant des méthodes de géomorphologie, de géoarchéologie, de géohistoire et de sédimentologie, ce travail rend compte de l'impact paysager des interactions entre activités humaines et dynamiques éoliennes depuis la création des oasis il y a 2 500 ans. Il présente un bilan des processus naturels et anthropiques, et aborde la question des conditions de vie des oasiens depuis l'Antiquité.Trois apports principaux résultent de cette recherche :- une typologie des formations constitutives des paysages du vent- une modélisation descriptive du système à leur origine, reposant sur des cycles asynchrones de colonisation et de déprises- un bilan des grandes tendances de l'évolution environnementale et morphogénétique sur le temps long, depuis l'implantation des oasis : les paysages du vent sont nés de la distorsion entre la dégradation environnementale régionale et l'amélioration locale et temporaire des conditions édaphiques résultant des activités humaines
The limiting features of the wind dynamics are scarce in the Western desert of Egypt, one of the most arid areas in the world: eolian ablation and transport are the prevailing factors of the morphogenesis. Born from artesian waters and human activities, the oases of Kharga basin form an area where the deposition processes are stronger thanks to the large amount of water and vegetation. Eolian dynamics, and their morphogenetic impacts, are strengthened by the nesting of oasis sites (deposition areas) in a desert region (sediment source-zone). The landscapes of the wind are thus formed by the juxtaposition of these areas where opposed processes occur. This thesis aims to describe, understand and explain their development.This work based on geomorphology, geoarchaeology, « géohistoire » and sedimentology gives an account on the impacts on the landscapes of the interactions between eolian dynamics and human activities since the creation of the oases 2 500 years ago. It consists in an overview of the natural and anthropogenic processes and an assessment of the living conditions in the oasis since the Antiquity.The three main results of this research are:- a typology of the elements forming the landscapes of the wind;- a descriptive modelisation of the system at stake in their formations, which is based on an asynchronous cycle of colonisation and abandonment of the sites;- an overview of the main patterns of the long-term environmental and morphogenetic evolution since the creation of the oases.This triple contribution shows that the landscapes of the wind are born from the distortion between the regional environmental trend towards degraded conditions and the local and temporary improvements of the edaphic conditions due to human activities

Jennings, Stewart Adam. "The impacts of climate change on global potato agriculture." Thesis, University of Leeds, 2018. http://etheses.whiterose.ac.uk/22232/.

Full text
Abstract:
It is vital that we develop our understanding of how crops will respond to climate change given the likely need to increase food production by 2050. The contribution of potatoes to the global food supply is increasing - consumption more than doubled in developing countries between 1960 and 2005. Analyses of climate impacts on potato compared to other major crops are relatively rare. Studies involving biotic stresses in crop modelling are also comparatively rare - around 70% of models do not incorporate pest and disease damage. This thesis simulated abiotic and biotic impacts of climate change to 2050 to identify risks and opportunities for global potato agriculture. The GLAM crop model is used to assess abiotic impacts and the SimCastMeta model is used to assess the impacts of the most important global disease of potato, late blight Phytophthora infestans. A further analysis uses pesticide data as a proxy for pest pressures, showing that warming leads to pesticide increases in temperate areas. GLAM is evaluated for potato simulation in two contrasting climates using data from Colombian regions and Aberdeen, UK. The model shows skill in simulating observed weather-yield relationships. National yield data are then used to test a global parameter configuration. Results show realistic planting dates and crop growth. Skill is low due to insignificant observed weather-yield relationships. Regional results show higher skill than global results, primarily due to more parameter detail. Global model results show skill in reproducing observed yields in Europe. Elsewhere, correlations are generally positive but low. Future climate simulations show that yields are expected to increase in most cases, primarily as a result of CO2 fertilisation, although the magnitude of increases are uncertain due to the uncertainties around future climate and CO2 fertilisation. Temperature increases in some regions result in shorter durations and reduce yield increases. Late blight is predicted to increase more in temperate regions, particularly if adaptation to climate change is considered. Taken together, abiotic and biotic impacts show potential opportunities for potato agriculture in temperate latitudes providing pests and diseases can be sustainably managed.

Além da relevância econômica, o setor agrícola fez com que o Brasil assumisse um papel ativo na discussão internacional das mudanças climáticas. O setor de agri- cultura, floresta e outros usos da terra (AFOLU) é a principal fonte de emissão de gases de efeito estufa no país, padrão peculiar entre os países em desenvolvimento. Durante a Conferência das Nações Unidas sobre as Mudanças Climáticas de 2009 (COP-15) o país assumiu o compromisso voluntário de reduzir suas emissões em 37 até 2025 e em 43% até 2030 em relação aos níveis de 2005. O setor agropecuario é responsável por contribuir com 22,5% do compromisso voluntario. Afim de atin- gir essa meta, foi criado em 2009 o Plano Setorial de Mitigação e de Adaptação as Mudanças Climáticas para a Consolidação de uma Economia de Baixa Emissão de Carbono na Agricultura (Plano ABC). O Plano ABC faz parte da Política Nacional de Mudanças Climáticas (PNMC). Entre as diversas ações do Plano ABC, estão a re- cuperação de 15 milhões de hectares (Mha) de pastagens degradadas e aumentar em 4 Mha as areas de integração lavoura-pecuaria (iLP) e / ou lavoura-pecuaria-floresta (iLPF). O objetivo da tese é avaliar os impactos econômicos e de mudança no uso da terra decorrentes dessas duas ações presentes no Plano ABC. Para tal, foi con- struído um modelo de equilíbrio geral computavel (EGC) (BREA versão 1.0) com representação detalhada de seis grandes regiões brasileiras divididas por relevância econômica e fronteira agrícola: Sul, Sudeste, Norte (bioma Amazônia), Centro-Oeste (sem o bioma Amazônia), Nordeste, e Nordeste Cerrado (Estados do Maranhão, To- cantins, Piauí e Bahia) que é considerada a nova fronteira agrícola brasileira. O modelo representa diversos usos da terra com desagregação setorial agropecuaria, e é o primeiro modelo de EGC a explicitamente representar a implementação das tecnologias do Plano ABC. Sob diferentes cenários simulados, os resultados indicam que a maior oferta de pastagens recuperadas e com alta produtividade, somadas as tecnologias iLP e iLPF, promovem o efeito poupador de terra como resultado agre- gado. Ha redução na pressão que a atividade de pecuária promove sobre as áreas naturais e florestas. Ao mesmo tempo, há queda das áreas destinadas às atividades de grãos, principalmente soja e milho, e aumento da area de florestas plantadas. Entretanto, os resultados regionais mostram que as regiões de fronteira agrícola respondem diferentemente as ações do Plano ABC. Nas regiões Centro-Oeste e Norte as pastagens crescem mais do que as areas recuperadas, sendo que parte das áreas de culturas são convertidas para pasto de boa qualidade. Nas regiões Sudeste e Sul essas pastagens aumentam menos do que a area de pastagens recuperadas, o que significa que parte das pastagens boas são convertidas em areas de culturas ou em florestas e áreas de vegetação secundária. Em termos macroeconômicos, percebe-se ganhos de bem-estar para as regiões brasileiras, com exceção das regiões do Nordeste e Nordeste Cerrado. Ademais, a variação do PIB regional indica queda expressiva nessas regiões. Esses resultados sugerem que o Plano ABC aumenta as disparidades regionais no Brasil evidenciando que o desenho de políticas públicas precisa levar em conta tais diferenças. A pesquisa sugere mecanismos modernos de compensação de perdas reestruturando as cadeias de valor regionais, para que no longo prazo aumente a capacidade de produção e absorção de tecnologias. Em termos de custo econômico, o modelo indica que para o atingimento das metas do Plano ABC refer- entes a recuperação de pastagens e sistemas integrados seriam necessários cerca de R$ 39 bilhões (valores nominais de 2009), valor inferior aos valores projetados no lançamento do Plano ABC (cerca de R$ 37 bilhões para recupeção de pastagens e R$ 57 bilhões para iLP e iLPF). O atual nível de adoção de recursos do Programa ABC é bem inferior ao montante necessario projetado no presente estudo. Até o fi- nal do ano safra 2015/2016 os desembolsos haviam alcançado quase R$ 13,8 bilhões, incluindo os gastos não apenas com recuperação de pastagens e iLPF, mas também com as demais linhas do programa, como o plantio direto e o tratamento de dejetos de animais. Essa constatação sugere que, a continuar o ritmo atual observado de adoção do crédito do Programa ABC, as metas do Plano ABC no ambito da Política Nacional de Mudança do Clima não serão atingidas.
Brazil is considered one of the major players in World agriculture. Besides the economic relevance of agriculture and livestock productions in Brazil, the country has an active role in the international discussion about climate change. The agricul- ture, forestry and other land use (AFOLU) sector is the main source of greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions. It is a peculiar pattern among developing countries. At COP-15 2009, Brazil made a voluntary commitment to reduce emissions by 37% until 2025 and by 43% until 2030 compared to 2005 levels. The agricultural and livestock sectors are responsible to contribute With 22.5% of this total. The Brazil- ian Government released in the same year the Low Carbon Agriculture Plan (ABC Plan) as part of National Policy for Climate Change (PNMC) to achieve the GHG emissions reduction in the AFOLU sector. The ABC Plan has several actions, e.g., recover 15 million hectares (Mha) of degraded pasture, and increase by 4 Mha the integrated systems (crop-livestock integration and/or crop-livestock-forestry inte- gration). The objective of this thesis is to evaluate the economic impacts and the land-use changes resulting from these actions present in the ABC Plan, such as pasture recovery (PR) and integrated systems (IS). I have built a new computable general equilibrium model (CGE) (BREA version 1.0) With detailed representation of six regions in Brazil representing the economic relevance and agricultural frontier. The regions are: South, Southeast, North (Amazon biome), Center-West (Without Amazon biome), Northeast, and Northeast Cerrado (Maranhão, Tocantins, Piauí, and Bahia States) Which is considered the neW agricultural frontier in Brazil. The model represents several land uses, agricultural sectors, and it is the first CGE model to explicitly represent these technologies. Under different simulated scenarios, the outcomes indicate that the higher supply of recovered areas With high productivity pastures, combined With the integrated systems, promotes the land sparing effect. There is a reduction in the pressure to clear natural and forest areas made by live- stock sector. Also, there is a decrease in the cropland use and an increase in the area of planted forest. However, regional results show that regions in the agricultural frontier respond differently to the ABC Plan. In the Center-West and North regions the pasture area increases more than recovered areas. At the same time, the crop land area is converted to high quality pasture. In the South and Southeast regions the pasture area increases less than the recovered areas. It means that part of this area is converted in cropland, forest or secondary vegetation. At macroeconomic level, there are welfare gains in all regions, except in the Northeast and Northeast Cerrado regions. Also, regional GDP changes indicate significant losses in these regions. Modern compensation mechanisms should be develop to avoid these losses increasing the production capacity and the technology absorption in these regions. Considering the economic costs of PR and IS the model projects R$ 39 billion (2009 values). This value is significantly lower compared to those projected in the origi- nal text of the ABC Plan (around R$ 37 billion for PR and R$ 57 billion for IS). The actual adoption level of resources present in the ABC Program is also lower compared to the value projected by the model. By the end of 2015/2016 crop-year the volume of credit taken by farmers reached R$ 13.8 billion, including all actions present in the ABC Plan and not only PR and IS. It suggests that if the adoption of the ABC credit continue in a low rate the goals of the ABC Plan Will not be met.

Abstract:
I compared vegetation features and rodent communities between manipulated and non-manipulated ranges in southeastern Arizona during summers 1996 and 1997. I also examined the effect of burying traps to determine if this procedure altered trap sensitivity. I used two-way analysis of variance or paired t-tests for all comparisons and identified relationships between rodents and vegetation features with linear regression. There was no difference (P ) in rodent species richness or population size between mechanically treated and reference areas. Rodent species richness and population size were greater on ungrazed compared to grazed areas (P ), but there was no difference in rodent diversity (P = 0.13). Prescribed fire did not have an obvious impact on rodent species richness or population size, though there seemed to be an increase in kangaroo rats following the burn. Buried traps may have demonstrated a reduction in sensitivity because I caught fewer animals in those traps compared to non-buried traps (P = 0.087).

Abstract:
Coffee production focuses on two species of the plant, Coffea arabica and Coffea canephora, also known as Coffea robusta. This plant is a tropical cash crop that has a wide range of quality and production standards, and provides a unique means for the study of economic, agricultural, social, and ecological issues. Many works discuss groups of people who produce coffee as a cash crop, ranging from Verena Stolcke's (1988) monograph, which analyzed the Brazilian colonato system, closely linked to colonial slavery, to Daniel Jaffee's (2007) fieldwork in Oaxaca and discussion of democratically organized cooperatives, whose goals include organic and Fair Trade certification. The coffee industry has a rich and complex history that has played a vital role in the development of modern commerce. This work discusses research concerning the roles of Fair Trade, organic, and other third-party certifications on societies that produce and consume coffee. While some data from the Far East and Africa are included, the majority of published literature focuses on Central and South American producer nations, and their relationships with the consumers of the North, namely North America and Europe. Certification of organic, Fair Trade, and sustainable agriculture standards by third-party labelling institutions provides new niches for coffee producers to improve standards of living in developing nations, and offset the crisis imposed by wild market fluctuations related to deregulation. The majority of this work consists of literature review and discussion. The remainder pertains to the author's work experience at a specialty coffee retailer in Wichita, Kansas. This work concludes that the coffee industry acts as a part of the global economy, and changes in the production, trade, marketing, and consumption of this product can affect and be affected by cultural change at any point in economic exchange. Furthermore, it demonstrates that social and environmental responsibility in global commodity exchange benefits all members of that exchange and mitigates their ecological impacts, despite the critiques of Fair Trade and organic labelling initiatives.

Abstract:
In January, 1986, Portugal became a part of the European Community. Although this will have many beneficial effects on Portugal's industrial sector, the agricultural sector will be negatively impacted by the regulations under the Common Agricultural Policy (CAP) due to take affect in 1996. The Entre Douro e Minho (EDM) region, in particular, will be hard hit by the CAP regulations. Modeling of the EDM suggests that farm operators can offset many of the negative impacts through increases in farm investment and farm size. However, legislation in both the credit and land markets hinder this process. This study analyzes the rental-market legislation in light of tenancy theory. The analysis suggests that changes in the method of calculating maximum rent along with changes in the security of tenure provisions will stimulate the rental markets and lead to the desired increases in farm investment and farm size.

Urban and community agriculture projects have long been touted as harboring the cure for a range of social maladies, even as recent findings show that many such projects mainly benefit White, already economically secure people. Drawing on interviews from participants and staff members of a community farm, I examine how this farm fits into the overall narrative surrounding community agriculture, as well as the diverse motivations participants have for joining the farm and the impacts stemming from their involvement. Results show proximity and interest to be the most frequent motivations for initial involvement, while participants noted changes in eating habits and self-perceptions from their participation. Additionally, consistent with previous literature, I identify themes regarding participants' alignment with eco-habitus and issues of accessibility for certain populations. These findings open the door for further research on the interplay between motivation and impacts, and how that is influenced by farm operations

Abstract:
COST Action 734 was launched thanks to the coordinated activity of 29 EU countries. The main objective of the Action was the evaluation of impacts from climate change and variability on agriculture for various European areas. Secondary objectives were: collection and review of existing agroclimatic indices and simulation models, to assess hazard impacts on European agricultural areas; to apply climate scenarios for the next few decades; the definition of harmonised criteria to evaluate the impacts of climate change and variability on agriculture; the definition of warning systems guidelines. Based on the result, possible actions (specific recommendations, suggestions, warning systems) were elaborated and proposed to the end-users, depending on their needs.

Abstract:
For two programming periods, Bulgarian agriculture has been developing in the conditions of our common and national agricultural policies. Adaptation processes have led to significant economic, social and environmental changes in farms and rural areas. The aim of the article is to assess the changes in the agricultural sector and their impacts on rural development. The analysis of changes in production and organizational structures and the impacts of rural development are assessed on the basis of statistical information and expert assessment of 163 specialists from regional directorates of Agriculture, municipal services and regional services of the National Agricultural Advisory System. The conclusions confirmed the upward development of Bulgarian agriculture, but with significant structural disparities and different in direction and strength impacts by regions of the country.
