Climate change adaptation and mitigation in smallholder crop–livestock systems in sub-Saharan Africa: a call for integrated impact assessments (2016, background): “The constraints to adoption of climate adaptation and mitigation options are mostly discussed in general, qualitative terms (e.g. Thornton and Herrero 2014).”
Linking agricultural adaptation strategies, food security and vulnerability: evidence from West Africa (2016, unknown): “…posed by climate change on food security in rural sub-Saharan Africa is well documented and concerns on its impact have been raised by a plethora of authors (e.g. Brown and Funk 2008; Battisti and Naylor 2009; Conway 2011; Beddington et al. 2012; Thornton et al. 2012; Thornton and Herrero 2014).”
A review on the contribution of crop diversification to Sustainable Development Goal 1 “No poverty” in different world regions (2019, background): “…that crop diversification practices help to buffer microclimatic fluctuations (e.g., Altieri et al., 2015; Lin, 2011; Müller et al., 2011; Thornton & Herrero, 2014), and others empirically analysed the resilience of diversified systems, such as polycultures, livestock diversification,…”
A social-ecological framework for analyzing and designing integrated crop–livestock systems from farm to territory levels (2016, background): “Thornton and Herrero (2014) showed the potential of crop–livestock integration to increase resilience of production systems to climate change in developing countries.”
