Agricultural innovations and their applications are increasingly recognized as crucial mechanisms for achieving the 2030 Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). Actors in agricultural research development (AR4D) frequently use Innovation Systems (AIS) frameworks to comprehend ecosystems within which developed scaled. Given SDGs' emphasis on social outcomes, a reflection diversity, power, integration of theory into AIS AR4D tools is addressing nuances objectives. This critically evaluates...
Using Colombia as a case study, this analysis provides insights on deforestation dynamics in times of conflict and peace the different factors driving these dynamics. We performed time series clustering yearly data (2001–2018) from 708 out 1,122 mainland Colombian municipalities (accounting for 98% total areas Colombia) produced regression models using gradient tree boosting framework (XGBoost) to identify drivers that explain varying, local-level Municipalities were characterized by seven...
Abstract Approximately 90% of global forest cover changes between 2000 and 2018 were attributable to agricultural expansion, making food production the leading direct driver deforestation. While previous studies have focused on interaction human environmental systems, limited research has explored deforestation from a system perspective. This study analyzes drivers in 40 tropical subtropical countries (2004–2021) through lenses consumption/demand, production/supply trade/distribution using...
Abstract As the COVID-19 pandemic unfolded, questions arose as to whether would amplify or pacify tropical deforestation. Early reports warned of increased deforestation rates; however, these studies were limited a few months in 2020 selected regions. To better understand how influenced globally, this study used historical data (2004–2019) from Terra-i pantropical land cover change monitoring system project expected trends for 2020, which determine observed deviated trajectories after first...
Abstract Ongoing food system inequalities and pressures on planetary boundaries requires a paradigm shift among agricultural research for development (AR4D) actors to produce effective innovation sustainable environmental social outcomes. Building insights from Agricultural Innovation System literature recognizing the influence of personal systemic biases within AR4D, following recommendations address upstream challenges, interdisciplinary collaboration, emphasize outcome-driven scaling,...
Both dispersal- and niche-based factors can impose major barriers on tree establishment. Our understanding of how these interact to determine recruitment rates is based primarily findings from mature tropical forests, despite the fact that a majority forests are now secondary. Consequently, influencing seed limitation seed-to-seedling transition (STS) in disturbed landscapes, those shift during succession, not well understood. We used 3.5-yr record rain seedling establishment investigate...
<title>Abstract</title> According to the latest Global Forest Resources Assessment, approximately 90% of global forest cover changes between 2000 and 2018 was attributable agricultural expansion, positioning food production as greatest direct driver deforestation. Our understanding underlying drivers deforestation has generally been informed by land systems studies focusing on how interactions human environmental influence use change. Yet, despite prominent role expansion for in driving...
