Citations in the corpus
- Crop diversification as a smallholder livelihood strategy within semi-arid agricultural systems near Mount Kenya (2015, background): “Land suitability, income level, risk avoidance, contact with extension officers, and social norms are potential determinants of crop diversification at a narrowed scope (Cutforth et al., 2001; Di Falco and Perrings, 2003).”
- Developing incentives and economic mechanisms for in situ biodiversity conservation in agricultural landscapes (2007, background): “Various recent studies have analyzed the contribution of crop diversity to the mean and variance of agricultural yields and farm income (Smale et al., 1998; Schläpfer et al., 2002; Widawsky and Rozelle, 1998; Di Falco and Perrings, 2003, 2005; Birol et al., 2006).”
- Crop biodiversity, risk management and the implications of agricultural assistance (2005, background): “This would result in a more diverse agroecosystem (Di Falco and Perrings, 2003).”
- Genetic diversity is considered important but interpreted narrowly in country reports to the Convention on Biological Diversity: Current actions and indicators are insufficient (2021, unknown): “…indicators and capacity efforts, and other global policy efforts to maintain genetic diversity necessary to counter current global crises, including climate change, biodiversity loss, and hunger (Di Falco and Perrings, 2003; Reusch et al., 2005; Sj ¨ oqvist and Kremp, 2016; Raffard et al., 2019).”
- Managing Increasing Environmental Risks Through Agro-Biodiversity and Agri-Environmental Policies (2010, unknown): “It has been conjectured that risk-averse farmers use crop diversity in order to hedge their income or consumption risk (Birol et al. 2006a, 2006b, Di Falco and Perrings 2003).”
