The United Nations calls for action to achieve 17 sustainable development goals (SDGs). We argue that the current development paradigm is an impediment to achieving several of these goals. We identify 14 agricultural research and development (R&[...]Article
S. Vermeulen ; Jan Cools ; J. Staes ; S. Van Passel |Due to climate change, the frequency and intensity of droughts are expected to increase. To improve resilience to droughts, proactive drought management is essential. Economic assessments are typically included to decide on the drought risk-redu[...]Article
R. Belmin ; M. Paulin ; E. Malézieux |Climate change is increasingly affecting agriculture worldwide, causing yield losses and undermining food security. Behind the international consensus on the urgent need for ambitious policies to adapt agriculture to climate change (AACC) hides [...]Article
This article discusses how climate changes are intersecting with other environmental and social pressures to affect farmers in the Lombardy region of the central Italian Alps. Alpine areas are particularly susceptible to climate change. Natural [...]Article
Le delta du Rhône, comme tous les deltas du monde, est sur la ligne de front des changements climatiques. À la suite de son endiguement consécutif à des inondations majeures à la fin de XIXe siècle, cette vaste plaine deltaïque a été le siège d[...]Article

Sterie |Agriculture is a fundamental aspect of our society, providing food and resources for a growing population. However, climate change is putting this sector at risk through rising temperatures, changing rainfall patterns and an increase in the freq[...]Article
Entre épisodes de sécheresse et excès de précipitations, la gestion de la ressource en eau devient stratégique et prioritaire pour nos sociétés. Essentielle au développement des plantes, leau est la ressource première de lagriculture et des fi[...]Article
Z. Bouzidi ; N. Faysse ; I. Mekki ; I. Ferchichi ; E. Hassenforder ; J.-D. Rinaudo |Au Maroc et en Tunisie, la surexploitation des eaux souterraines saccentue, dans un contexte de baisse de la pluviométrie et daugmentation des usages. Après plusieurs années de mise en uvre, lapproche réglementaire et celle cherchant à mobil[...]Article
This study improves the environmental water supply in a wetland using a novel framework in which the environmental impacts due to irrigation supply and the economic losses for agriculture are minimized through the proposal of an optimal cropping[...]Article
Agriculture plays a dual role in the conservation of European biodiversity, as extensive agricultural lands provide habitats for more than half of Europe's species, but intensification and abandonment of farmland threaten these species' habitats[...]Article

La réponse au besoin en eau de lagriculture devient un enjeu crucial face au changement climatique et à lobjectif de souveraineté alimentaire. Avec des ressources en eau et une disponibilité de plus en restreinte en été sur les territoires en[...]Article
Production systems that do not use environmentally sustainable practices are being pressured to change their production strategies. Conventional agricultural practices are associated with negative impacts, such as extensive land use, soil contam[...]Article
In this study, we use a gravity model to analyze virtual water flows due to the trade of agricultural products for Turkey. We calculate virtual water flows of agricultural trade for 326 products and 192 trade partners for 2002?2019. The empirica[...]Article
P.D. Wagner ; S. Kumar ; N. Fohrer |There is a common scientific understanding that global change impact analysis, mitigation, and adaptation require interdisciplinary work. Integrated modeling could help to address the challenges associated with the impacts of global change. Part[...]Article
The present study aims to support the Mapping and Assessment of Ecosystems and their Services (MAES) implementation in Greece, by synthesizing an indicator that could be used for abiotic attribute assessments and specifically for geodiversity. S[...]Article
Le Maroc est souvent érigé en exemple international pour sa gestion des ressources en eau. Après une période dinvestissement dans les barrages et les périmètres irrigués publics, cest lintensification de lagriculture et le recours aux eaux s[...]Article
