- New investment, old challenges. Land deals and the water constraint in African agriculture (2012, background): “…projects involve crops with high year-round water requirements (sugar cane, bananas), or because they involve dry-season cultivation (wheat, vegetable, fruit), or because the projected yields are only obtainable under optimum (including moisture) conditions (e.g. jatropha, cf. Schut et al. 2010).”
- Considering the energy, water and food nexus: Towards an integrated modelling approach (2011, background): “Recent food price spikes were likely caused by many factors, including increased prices for fertilizer and fuel and thus transport, increased demand for biofuels driven by energy security and climate change concerns, as well as changing consumption patterns (see e.g., UN-Energy, 2007; Elena and Esth”
- Land grabbing in Southern Africa: the many faces of the investor rush (2011, background): “Mozambique, though, has without doubt been the frontrunner in embracing biofuels since its 2004 election when the ruling Frelimo party urged all farmers to plant jatropha on all marginal and unused lands to ensure that Mozambique could become an ‘oil exporting country’ (Schut et al. 2010).”
