Abstract:
Land ist eine entscheidende Ressource in der landwirtschaftlichen Produktion, aber seine ungleiche Verteilung verzögert das Wohlergehen der Entwicklungsländer. Diese Studie wurde hauptsächlich entwickelt, um die Verteilung von land und die damit verbundenen Problemen der landwirtschaftlichen Produktivität in den zugehörigen Ländern zu erforschen. Darüber hinaus wurde die unterschiedliche Ebene der Verteilung von land auf die Beziehungen zu anderen betriebs und sozio-ökonomischen Indikatoren analysiert. Ebenso wurde die vollständige oder teilweise Faktor-produktivität, Bruttoergebnisse, Ernteintensität, Ernte-Vielfalt, die Unterschiede der Einkommensverteilung und die institutionelle Kredit Verfügbarkeit untersucht. Alle der genannten Indikatoren wurden für kleine, mittlere und große Kategorien der Betriebsgrößen bewertet. Drei verschiedene Standorte wurden differenziert nach ihrem zugang zu bewässerung aus gesucht z.B. ständig bewässerte. Flächen m0it ganzjährigen Dauerkulturen, nicht dauerhaft bewässerten Flächen mit sechsmonatiger Bewässerbarkeit durch die öffentliche Infrastruktur und Flächen mit dene bewässerungs-infrastrukture (vor allem durch Brunnen bewässert). Verschiedene statistische (zB. Gini-Koeffizient, Lorenz-Kurve, Herfindahl-Index etc.) und ökonometrische Maßnahmen (log-log-Funktion) wurden zu messung verschiedener Indikatoren zur Erreichung der Ziele der Studie verwendet. Der Ergebnisse belegen eine gleichmäßige Landverteilung in nicht dauerhaft bewässerten Gebieten, während die Landverteilung in regenbewässerten Gebieten zersplittert ist. Die Leistung der meisten der Indikatoren, d.h. die Rendite, Bruttoergebnisse, die landwirtschaftlichen Einkommen, Arbeitsproduktivität, Einkommensverteilung, Anbauintensität und Anbaudiversität war im Vergleich zu anderen Gebieten höher. Während die Faktorproduktivität, Bewässerungsproduktivität und die institutionelle Kreditverfügbarkeit in dauerhaft bewässerten Gebieten höher war. Allerdings wiesen regenbewässerung-gebiete immer die geringste Effizienz in Bezug auf alle der genannten Indikatoren auf. Die genannten Indikatoren waren bei kleinen Betrieben stärker ausgeprägt als bei größeren betrieben. Darüber hinaus bestätigten regressive Ergebnisse der Studie die Existenz der inversen Beziehung zwischen Betriebsgröße und Produktivität an allen Standorten der Studie. Daher wird der Schluss gezogen, dass eine bessere Verteilung von Land und kleine Betriebsstrukturen der Landwirtschaft dazu beitragen können, mehr zu produzieren. Es wird dringend empfohlen, dass die Umverteilungen der Land reformen notwendig sind, in Entwicklungs ländern mit Landknappheit und reichlichen Arbeitskräften wie Pakistan. Es kann auch zur Linderung von Armut beitragen und als Hilfe zür Ernährungssicherung in den benachteiligten Regionen dienen.
Land is a pivotal resource in agriculture production but its uneven distribution retards the welfare of developing nations. This study was, mainly, devised to address land distribution problems and consequent farm productivity in the study area. Furthermore, level of land distribution disparities was focused on to observe its relationship with different on-farm and socio-economic indicators including total and partial factor productivities, gross margins, cropping intensity, crop diversity, income distribution disparities and institutional credit availability etc. All of the aforesaid indicators were also assessed for small, medium and large farm size categories. Three distinct locations were chosen on the basis of varying irrigation endowments i.e. irrigated perennial area with year round, irrigated non-perennial area with six months irrigation availability through public infrastructure and rainfed area was mainly tubewell irrigated (without public irrigation infrastructure). Various statistical (i.e. Gini coefficient, Lorenz curve, Herfindahl Index etc) and econometric measures (i.e. log-log function) were employed to quantify different indicators to achieve objectives of the study. Land was observed evenly distributed in irrigated non-perennial area as compared to other areas while land distribution was found most skewed in rainfed area. The performance of most of the indicators i.e. yield, gross margins, farm income, labour productivity, income distribution, cropping intensity and crop diversity was found better as compared to other areas. While total factor productivity, irrigation productivity and rate of institutional credit availability was higher in irrigated perennial area. However, rainfed area was always least efficient with respect to all of the quantified indicators. The aforesaid indicators were observed better at small farms than larger ones. Moreover, regression results of the study also confirmed the existence of inverse relationship between farm size and productivity in all of the study locations. Therefore, it is concluded that better land distribution and small farms agriculture can help to produce more. So, it is strongly suggested that redistributive land reforms are necessary in land scarce and labour abundant developing countries like Pakistan. It can also alleviate poverty and help to bring food security in the deprived regions.

Abstract:
Resource capture and utilisation were studied in two agroforestry systems at the International Centre for Research in Agroforestry (ICRAF) Research Station at Machakos, Kenya. The agroforestry systems examined contained two contrasting tree species, leucaena (Leucaena leucocephala (Lam.) de wit) and grevillea (Grevillea robusta), and the C3 and C4 crops, cowpea (Vigna unguiculata) and maize (Zea mays, Katumani composite). The leucaena-based trial was established in November 1989 and the trees were grown with ten maize crop rows on either side of a pruned hedgerow (HM) or unpruned tree row (LM). A sole maize control (SM) was also grown. Paired sets of treatments were irrigated to eliminate below-ground competition for water (HMI, LMI and SMI respectively). Interception of photosynthetically active radiation (PAR) by leucaena and maize was measured on a row-wise basis in all treatments at 7-10 day intervals using a sunfleck ceptometer. Sap flux was measured for the maize and both pruned and unpruned leucaena using heat balance gauges. Results are presented for the 1992 April-July rainy season. Total PAR interception was 30 % greater in LM and LMI than in the SM and SMI sole maize treatments. However, little more than 30 % of the light intercepted by the LM and LMI systems was captured by the crop component, and competition for light alone reduced maize yields by over 30 %. Total water uptake by the LM leucaena and maize comprised 60 % of the seasonal rainfall (237 mm) as compared to 30 % for sole maize. However, as for light interception, only 30 % of the water transpired in LM was used by the intercropped maize, and competition from the trees for soil water reduced maize yields at distances of over 6 m from the leucaena. The leucaena was more effective at resource capture, yet less efficient in resource utilisation since it exhibited a lower dry matter:radiation quotient and a lower transpired water:dry matter ratio than maize. Thus the leucaena in the agroforestry systems captured more of the resources that could have been used more effectively by the maize, causing the performance of the mixture to be sub-optimal; these results suggest that the two components would be best grown separately. Intensive monitoring of resource capture and use by trees and crops was subsequently transferred to the Complementarity In Resource Use on Sloping land trial (CIRUS). Although it had been intended to study both trials during the long rains of 1993, the leucaena trees were almost completely defoliated by psyllid (Heteropsylla cubana) infestation shortly before the onset of the rains: in subsequent seasons, CIRUS was studied in preference to the leucaena trial as the trees had only partially recovered. CIRUS was designed to investigate the effects of competition and the extent of complementarity between grevillea and associated crops using the following treatments; sole crops (Cg) of cowpea during the short rains and maize during the long rains, dispersed-planted trees with (CTd) and without crops (Td), and across (CTa) or on-contour-planted (CTc) tree rows with crops. Light interception and water use were monitored using a similar measurement regime to that employed in the leucaena trial. Results are presented for the 199213 and 1993/4 short rainy seasons; the failure of the 1993 long rains forced the abandonment of experimental measurements during this season. Light interception by the Td and CTd grevillea increased greatly between the two short rainy seasons. Thus, total seasonal interception of PAR was three times greater in sole cowpea than in sole grevillea during the 1992/3 short rains, but by the following short rainy season was over 50 % greater in the grevillea than in the cowpea. Cumulative interception of PAR by the CTd grevillea and cowpea combined was more than twice that of the sole cowpea and over 40 % greater than that for sole grevillea during the 1993/4 short rains. Experiments involving artificially imposed shade showed that there was no reduction in total above-ground dry matter production in cowpea until 75 % shading was imposed. To quantify the degree of below-ground complementarity in water use between grevillea and cowpea, sap flux was measured using heat balance gauges attached to the stems of young grevillea (10-18 months old), both before and after excavating the crop rooting zone (upper 60 cm of soil) around the stem base. The crop rooting zone was removed to establish the capability of the grevillea to extract water from deeper horizons. After excavation, the trees maintained sap fluxes of up to 85 % of the unexcavated values. During both short rains, soil evaporation was by far the largest component of the water balance in all treatments. However, continued extraction of water by the trees during the dry season greatly increased resource capture~ thus total water uptake was three times greater for the sole trees than for the sole crop when dry season water use was included. During the 1993/4 short rains, water use was greatest in the CTd treatment, in which 25 % of the total seasonal rainfall was transpired by the trees and crops. Although transpiration by the CTd trees exceeded interception losses, the latter may have had a greater effect on crop growth by reducing the total quantity of water available within the system. The existence of below-ground complementarity and the shade tolerance of the cowpea suggest that deep-rooted tree species and certain C3 crops may be combined successfully in the semi-arid tropics, but the sensitivity of crop yield to any reduction in water availability within the system demonstrates the need for caution when implementing such systems. The results obtained are discussed in relation to previous research on intercropping and agroforestry and their implications for the successful adoption of agroforestry systems in the semi-arid tropics.

Abstract:
Corporate leaders are expected to engage in corporate social responsibility by some stakeholders, but there is no consistent evidence that corporate social performance relates to financial performance. Grounded in instrumental stakeholder theory, the purpose of this correlational study was to examine the relationship among energy productivity, greenhouse gas productivity, and return on equity. The 2016 Newsweek Green Ranking U.S. 500 was the population for this study, which consisted of the largest companies in the United States with the highest corporate social performance scores. The secondary data were collected from Newsweek.com and Morningstar.com for this study. The multiple linear regression was used in the data analysis for the study. This study's model was F(2,104) = 1.028, p = .361, Adjusted R2 = .001 and represented that there was not a statistically significant relationship among energy productivity, greenhouse gas productivity, and return on equity. The implications for positive social change include the potential to provide corporate leaders with additional evidence to inform fact-based decisions related to the strategic allocation of resources to manage corporate energy productivity and greenhouse productivity. Effectively managing energy productivity and greenhouse gas productivity could contribute to reducing global warming, which would improve the quality of lives of U.S residents.

Abstract:
Sustaining a high biomass of consumers and high primary productivity in a fluctuating and infertile environment has been suggested to be driven by consumers. The Lake Tanganyika inshore ecosystem provides a model system to understand how consumers can maintain primary productivity in an environment that has pulses of the limiting nutrient. Models of nutrient-limited food chains for the dominant herbivorous fish that graze on productive benthic algae were built and analyzed with parameters estimated from field data. The effects of pulse regimes, grazing, recycling, and losses on average productivity and its coefficient of variation (a measure of instability) were evaluated in terms of phosphorus, the limiting nutrient.We found that the range of possible consumer loss parameters was much lower than the critical value for the grazers to enhance productivity. If, as hypothesized, primary productivity is donor controlled in the littoral ecosystems of Lake Tanganyika, then grazers are expected to enhance primary productivity. However environmental loss rates could vary by more than two orders of magnitude. If primary productivity is recipient controlled, then the loss rates can exceed the critical value. This could occur when fish biomass was reduced by as little as 10%. Therefore removal or loss of consumer biomass could destabilize the littoral zones when primary productivity is under recipient control.Consumers that enhance primary production also decrease its instability. This effect is large as it reduces variations of primary production by an order of magnitude compared to when consumers are absent. In donor-controlled and Lotka-Volterra models, fluctuation of nutrient input had no effect on mean productivity (compared to constant conditions), regardless of the presence of consumers. However, primary productivity is different on average compared to a constant environment when consumption by either autotrophs or herbivores saturates at high resource abundance. In this case, average primary production is reduced by environmental fluctuations in the absence of consumers because of saturation of uptake by the autotrophs. In the presence of grazers with saturating consumption, fluctuations can either have a positive or negative impact on primary production. In any case, consumers still enhance productivity in a fluctuating environment under the same conditions that they do in a stable environment.Long-lived consumers with a high degree of recycling minimize the adverse effects on primary productivity from a fluctuating environment. Excessive, long-term, storage of nutrients by consumers, however, can sometimes lead to decreases in productivity and more sensitivity to environmental fluctuations. On the other extreme, short-lived organisms that recycle less can have a strongly negative effect on stability and average productivity. The consumers of Lake Tanganyika appear to occupy a range of intermediate turnover rates, and their estimated rates of recycling should lead to enhanced and stable levels of productivity. Thus the Lake Tanganyika littoral ecosystem provides a compelling case that, as long as consumers adequately recycle and store a limiting nutrient, consumers sustain ecosystem functioning in the face of environmental variability.
Il a été proposé que les consommateurs puissent favoriser le maintien d'une biomasse de consommateurs et d'une productivité primaire élevées dans un environnement fluctuant et infertile. L'écosystème côtier du lac Tanganyika fournit un modèle pour comprendre comment les consommateurs peuvent maintenir la productivité primaire dans un tel environnement. Des modèles de chaînes alimentaires limitées par les nutriments ont été élaborés et analysés afin de clarifier le rôle des consommateurs dans l'amélioration de la productivité primaire quand les entrées des éléments nutritifs fluctuent. Les effets des régimes de fluctuations, de l'herbivorie, du recyclage et des pertes de nutriments sur la production primaire et sa variabilité ont été évalués lorsque le phosphore est l'élément limitant.La gamme possible des paramètres de perte des consommateurs s'est avérée beaucoup plus faible que la valeur seuil sous laquelle les herbivores augmentent la productivité. Si, comme cela semble vraisemblable, la productivité primaire est contrôlée par les autotrophes dans les écosystèmes littoraux du lac Tanganyika, on s'attend à ce que les herbivores augmentent la productivité primaire. Cependant, les taux de pertes environnementales peuvent varier de plus de deux ordres de grandeur et si la productivité primaire est contrôlée par les herbivores, les pertes pourraient dépasser la valeur seuil. Cela pourrait se produire lorsque la biomasse des poissons est réduite de 10% à peine. Le retrait ou la perte de biomasse des consommateurs pourrait dès lors déstabiliser les zones littorales lorsque la productivité primaire est contrôlée par les herbivores.Les consommateurs qui augmentent la production primaire en diminuent également l'instabilité. Cet effet est important car il réduit les variations de production primaire d'un ordre de grandeur par rapport à la situation où les consommateurs sont absents. La productivité primaire moyenne ne diffère par rapport à un environnement constant que lorsque la consommation des autotrophes ou des herbivores sature à haute abondance de ressources. Dans ce cas, la production primaire moyenne est réduite par les fluctuations de l'environnement en l'absence des consommateurs à cause d'une saturation de la consommation des autotrophes. En présence d'herbivores et avec saturation de leur consommation, les fluctuations peuvent avoir un impact soit positif ou négatif sur la production primaire. Dans les modèles contrôlés par le donneur ou de type Lotka-Volterra, les fluctuations des entrées de nutriments n'ont pas d'effet sur la productivité moyenne, que les consommateurs soient présents ou non. Les consommateurs à longue durée de vie et un degré élevé de recyclage minimisent les effets néfastes d'un environnement fluctuant sur la productivité primaire. Mais le stockage excessif et pour une longue période de nutriments par les consommateurs peut parfois conduire à une diminution de la productivité et une plus grande sensibilité de celle-ci aux fluctuations environnementales. À l'autre extrême, des organismes de courte longévité et qui recyclent moins peuvent avoir un effet fortement négatif sur la stabilité et la productivité moyenne. Les consommateurs du lac Tanganyika semblent occuper une gamme de longévités intermédiaires, et leurs taux de recyclage estimés devraient conduire à des niveaux de productivité accrus et stables. Ainsi, les écosystèmes littoraux du lac Tanganyika offrent une bonne illustration du fait que, tant que les consommateurs recyclent et stockent un élément nutritif limitant adéquatement, ces consommateurs maintiennent le fonctionnement des écosystèmes face à des variations de l'environnement.

Abstract:
Leaf traits have long been used to classify and characterise species in natural ecosystems. In addition, leaf traits provide important information about plants’ strategies for the use of resources and can be used to improve our understanding of ecosystem level processes such as nutrient cycling and carbon allocation. To explore the linkages between leaf traits and productivity, we worked in two resource-limited ecosystems (a grassland and a forest), and used leaf traits to understand how species respond to changes in available resources and their relationship to ecosystem processes. We worked in a species rich limestone-grassland located in central England, which has been subjected to long-term climatic manipulation (winter warming, summer drought and extra summer rainfall). We characterised species composition in terms of their identity, abundance and leaf structural properties (nitrogen content and leaf mass per area (LMA)) in the main treatments and the control. We found that change in species abundance was the most important factor to understand the differences in productivity (above ground biomass and total foliar nitrogen). We then measured CO2 exchange at ecosystem level, using a chamber technique, and assessed the treatments’ effect on the gross primary productivity (GPP) and ecosystem respiration (Reco). GPP and Reco were controlled by soil moisture and above ground biomass but also influenced by the conditions experienced during the growing season prior to the measuring period. Our second location was a post-disturbance chronosequence in a seasonally dry tropical forest in Costa Rica and we used leaf level gas exchange measurements to explore the role of nitrogen (N) and phosphorus (P) on the temporal-spatial variation of photosynthesis of dominant species. We found that photosynthetic efficiency was strongly linked to leaf N and P content, but that there was an important seasonal pattern on this relationship likely associated to P remobilization. Additionally we found seasonal changes in resources (water, nutrients) had a larger impact on the photosynthetic parameters than changes along the chronosequence. The two ecosystems studied for this thesis are contrasting in their physiognomy, species composition and climate, but are also characterised by species whose structural traits (high LMA and high C:N ratio) are likely to have a significant impact on the nutrient cycling processes. We learned that leaf traits provide important information about species strategies and their usage of resources and they can also aid to address questions at ecosystem level in time and space, either through simple aggregation or as emergent properties. Additionally, the traits explored are important input information to up-scale processes from leaf to the ecosystem level, a step needed to address the effect changes in resources will have on the seasonally dry tropical forest and grasslands, which represent a significant fraction of the total global carbon storage.

Abstract:
Abstract Unconventional resource plays, herein referred to as source rock plays, have been able to significantly increase the supply of hydrocarbons to the world. However, majority of the companies developing these resource plays have struggled to generate consistent positive cash flows, even during periods of stable commodity prices and after successfully reducing the development costs. The fundamental reasons for poor financial performance can be attributed to various reasons, such as; rush to lease acreage and drill wells to hold acreage, delayed mapping of sweet spots, slow acknowledgement of high geological variability, spending significant capital in trial and errors to narrow down optimal combinations of well spacing and stimulation designs. The objective of this paper is to present a systematic integrated multidisciplinary analysis of several unconventional plays worldwide which, if used consistently, can lead to significantly improved economics. We present an analysis of several unconventional plays in the US and Argentina with fluid systems ranging from dry gas to black oil. We utilize the publicly available datasets of well stimulation and production data along with laboratory measured core data to evaluate the sweet spots, the measure of well productivity, and the variability in well productivity. We investigate the design parameters which show the strongest correlation to well productivity. This step allows us to normalize the well productivity in such a way that the underlying well productivity variability due to geology is extracted. We can thus identify the number of wells which should be drilled to establish geology driven productivity variability. Finally, we investigate the impact of well spacing on well productivity. The data indicates that, for any well, first year cumulative production is a robust measure of ultimate well productivity. The injected slurry volume shows the best correlation to the well productivity and "completion normalized" well productivity can be defined as first year cumulative production per barrel of injected slurry volume. However, if well spacing is smaller than the created hydraulic fracture network, the potential gain of well productivity is negated leading to poor economics. Normalized well productivity is log-normally distributed in any play due to log-normal distribution of permeability and the sweet spots will generally be defined by most permeable portions of the play. Normalized well productivity is shown to be independent of areal scale of any play. We show that in every play analyzed, typically 20-50 wells (with successful stimulation and production) are sufficient to extract the log-normal productivity distribution depending on play size and target intervals. We demonstrate that once the log-normal behavior is anticipated, creation of production profiles with p10-p50-p90 values is quite straightforward. The way the data analysis is presented can be easily replicated and utilized by any operator worldwide which can be useful in evaluation of unconventional resource play opportunities.

Abstract:
Review question / Objective: The objective of this review is to analyze the effect of zero-tillage and organic mulching (with emphasis on rice-straw) on several Key Performance Indicators (KPIs) related to productivity, resources-use efficiency, and soil health, as well as, C footprint, and weed control for growing potatoes in rice-based systems in Asia. Can zero-tillage and organic mulching increase agronomic gain in potatoes crop in Asia? Rationale: Potato cultivation under zero-tillage and mulching (PZTM) between rice or rice-other crops projects a sustainable intensification of rice-based systems reducing mechanical soil disturbance with a concomitant increase of soil organic matter. However, collection, analysis, and synthesis of experiences in Asia, where this technology was mainly reported, is missing in the scientific literature. This effort, presented in this review, is crucial as a starting point for establishing if PTZM experiences have improved indicators related to productivity, resource use efficiency and soil health, and C footprint and weed management to achieve Agronomic Gain.

Abstract:
Increased climate variability, including more frequent and intense drought, is projected for the southwestern region of the United States. Increased temperatures and reduced precipitation lower soil water availability resulting in decreased plant productivity and altering species composition which may affect forage quality and quantity. Reduced forage quality and increased heat stress attributable to warmer temperatures could lead to decreased livestock performance in this system, which is extensively used for livestock grazing. Mitigating the effects of increasing drought is critical to social and ecological stability in the region. Reduced stocking rates, change in livestock breeds and/or grazing practices are general recommendations that could be implemented to cope with increased climatic stress. Ecological Sites (ESs) and their associated state and transition models (STMs) are tools to help land managers implement and evaluate responses to disturbances. The projected change in climate will vary depending on geographic location. Vulnerability assessments and adaptation strategies are needed at the local level to inform local management decisions and help ameliorate the effects of climate change on rangelands. The USDA Southwest Climate Hub and Natural Resources Conservation Service (NRCS) worked together to produce this drought vulnerability assessment at the Major Land Resource Area (MLRA) level based on ESs/STMs that will help landowners and government agencies identify and develop adaptation options for drought on rangelands. The assessment illustrates how site-specific information can be used to help minimize the effects of drought on rangelands and support informed decision-making for selecting management adaptations within MLRA 69.
