| Resumen: |
Este libro analiza los sistemas de gestión de recursos naturales y agroecológicos sostenibles basados ​​en el conocimiento y las mejores prácticas para una productividad agrÃcola sostenida y la resiliencia de los ecosistemas para mejores medios de vida en un clima cambiante. Centrándose en la agricultura en Ãfrica, el libro evalúa tecnologÃas innovadoras para su uso en pequeñas explotaciones agrÃcolas y aborda algunos de los Objetivos de Desarrollo Sostenible clave para orientar respuestas innovadoras y métodos de adaptación mejorados para hacer frente al cambio climático. Las contribuciones se basan en el ''Creación de capacidades para gestionar el cambio climático en Malawi'' (CABMACC), un programa de cinco años con el objetivo general de mejorar los medios de vida y la seguridad alimentaria a través de respuestas innovadoras y una mayor capacidad de adaptación al cambio climático. Los lectores descubrirán más sobre la producción agrÃcola sostenible, la agricultura climáticamente inteligente, el suministro de energÃa en las granjas a partir del biogás y el potencial del secuestro de carbono del suelo en los sistemas agrÃcolas y ganaderos. . |
