Schroth, Götz; Läderach, Peter; Martinez Valle, Armando; Bunn, Christian; Jassogne, Laurence, 2016, "Replication Data for: Vulnerability to climate change of cocoa in West Africa: Patterns, opportunities and limits to adaptation", https://doi.org/10.7910/DVN/5W7LGW, Harvard Dataverse, V1
We use a combination of a statistical model of climatic suitability (Maxent) and the analysis of individual, potentially limiting climate variables. We find that: 1) contrary to expectation, maximum dry season temperatures are projected to become as or more limiting for cocoa as dry season water availability; 2) to reduce the vulnerability of cocoa... |
Schroth, Götz; Läderach, Peter; Martinez Valle, Armando; Bunn, Christian, 2016, "Replication Data for: From site-level to regional adaptation planning for tropical commodities: cocoa in West Africa", https://doi.org/10.7910/DVN/1JMXC6, Harvard Dataverse, V1
We discuss here such a regional approach for cocoa in West Africa, where 70 % of global cocoa supply originates. On the basis of a statistical model of relative climatic suitability calibrated on West African cocoa farming areas and average climate projections for the 2030s and 2050s of, respectively, 15 and 19 Global Circulation Models, we divide... |

International Center for Tropical Agriculture, 2016, "Genotype x environment interaction in Desmodium ovalifolium", https://doi.org/10.7910/DVN/COQEK8, Harvard Dataverse, V1, UNF:6:JEPcx1vt6C2QglG9swTBzg== [fileUNF]
In searching for alternative forage legumes, there is a need for increased emphasis on understanding the influence of environment on quality and anti-quality factors. The tropical pasture legume Desmodium ovalifolium contains high levels of tannins, which, however, vary among accessions and seem to be influenced by environmental factors. A core col... |

Kihara, Job, 2016, "Replication Data for: Maize response to macronutrients and potential for profitability in sub-Saharan Africa", https://doi.org/10.7910/DVN/UNLRGC, Harvard Dataverse, V1, UNF:6:KE8d2VIJGqCpgCiZOvGaUQ== [fileUNF]
Sub-Saharan Africa (SSA) is plagued by low productivity and little research is available on the attainable responses and profitability to applied nutrients under variable environments. The objective of this study was to determine the attainable maize grain response to and potential of profitability of N, P and K application in SSA using boundary li... |

Instituto de Hidrología, Meteorología y Estudios Ambientales, 2016, "Raw daily weather records from 7 IDEAM’s stations in Tolima and Meta departments, Colombia", https://doi.org/10.7910/DVN/7SGCCR, Harvard Dataverse, V1, UNF:6:dgllNJ6fOOnArwLLo4sKYw== [fileUNF]
Weather records from 7 stations of IDEAM located in Tolima and Meta departments in Colombia. Five variables are available at daily scale: precipitation (prec), maximum temperature (tmax), minimum temperature (tmin), relative humidity (rhum), and sun bright (sbright). For units details, please consult variable_codes.txt For localization of the stati... |
Rodríguez de Luque, Jesús José; Creamer, Bernardo, 2015, "Replication Data for: Major constraints and trends for common bean production and commercialization; establishing priorities for future research", https://doi.org/10.7910/DVN/0ABVEM, Harvard Dataverse, V2
In order to identify the principal constraints and trends for common bean production and commercialization and the priorities for future common bean research in Africa, Latin America and the Caribbean (LAC), a priority setting process was developed at the International Center for Tropical Agriculture (CIAT). The results suggested that the principal... |

Winowiecki, Leigh, 2015, "Assessment of soil and land health at Hallu, Babati, Tanzania", https://doi.org/10.7910/DVN/8JMMUZ, Harvard Dataverse, V1, UNF:6:H08VwyM6yFSPHg/BGk4+qg== [fileUNF]
The aim of this project component was to conduct a landscape assessment of soil and land health in near Hallu, Tanzania for the CIAT-Soils activity for the CGIAR Research Program on Climate Change, Agriculture and Food Security (CCAFS). The selection of the LDSF site near Hallu was informed by Selian Agriculture Research Institute (SARI) scientists... |
Da Silva, Mayesse; Rodriguez, Maryory; Majin, Marvin; Chirinda, Ngonidzashe, 2015, "Textural classification of soils in rice-growing areas in Colombia", https://doi.org/10.7910/DVN/WKAOIL, Harvard Dataverse, V1
English The Digital Soil Mapping (DSM) approach was used to generate maps of the soil texture (sand, silt, and clay) in Colombia, based on the soil geomorphology. The soil units were differentiated by land shapes using a STRM 90-m DEM, and stratified by geopedological units from the Agustín Codazzi Geographic Institute (IGAC). The digital maps of s... |
Twyman, Jennifer; González, Carolina; Muriel, Juliana; Suárez, Stephany; Lopera, Diana C; Labarta, Ricardo, 2015, "Estudio de adopción de variedades de arroz en Perú", https://doi.org/10.7910/DVN/6YQDMC, Harvard Dataverse, V1, UNF:6:DAAHDteAmRyRm3b9xzoMlg== [fileUNF]
La Alianza Global para la Investigación en arroz (GRiSP-siglas en inglés), es un programa de investigación del CGIAR que lidera el Centro Internacional de Agricultura Tropical (CIAT) para América Latina. Con el interés de conocer y evaluar la adopción de variedades de arroz (tecnologías desarrolladas por CIAT en el marco de GRiSP), se iniciaron una... |
