An ongoing project of the Program is to utilize the Earth System Model (the IGSM) to identify the impacts of global environmental change on energy and economic activities, land productivity, agricultural production, and human health.
A significantly large area of the Cheleleka wetland watershed has non-tolerable soil erosion that threatens annual crop production, land productivity, and hydrological functioning of the area.
Low soil fertility is one of the greatest biological obstacles to increasing food production and improving land productivity.
Cultivation of marginal lands has unintended consequences of soil erosion, increased risk of flood damage to more productive lowland, and further reduction in overall land productivity.
In ancient and preindustrial times the products of the soil constituted the bulk of total output, and land productivity thus constituted the major ingredient in a people's standard of living.
FAO is responding to the need to increase food production from a degraded natural resource base by supporting the restoration of land productivity and ecosystem services.
Barrios, E. Soil biota, ecosystem services and land productivity.
The positive spillover effect from the reintroduced animals include improved land productivity, Fleming said.
This finding suggests that NREGA is likely to have a long-term effect on land productivity.
An enormous effort is underway in Ethiopia to address soil erosion and restore overall land productivity.
The soil organism community can have direct and indirect impacts on land productivity.
