Profitability Calculator

Based on gridcell-level estimates of wheat yields, and response to nutrient application, together with gridcell-specific estimates of fertilizer and wheat prices, this spreadsheet model assesses the profitability of fertilizer application in Ethiopia.

Crop Response Tool

This is a selection of management input scenarios and simulated crop responses for maize, rice, sorghum, wheat, groundnut, soybean, bean, cassava, potato, and yams.

Seeds of Change: Corn Seed Mixtures for Resistance Management and Integrated Pest Management

The use of mixtures of transgenic insecticidal seed and nontransgenic seed to provide an in-field refuge for susceptible insects in insect-resistance-management (IRM) plans has been considered for at

Yield Target and Poverty Reduction Model for South Asia

Yield Target and Poverty Reduction Model for South Asia

Comparative static model used to estimate long-term aggregate potential yield gains and aggregate potential poverty reduction effects from narrowing yield gaps for selected commodities in selected regions. The model allows for differentiated yield gap closure and technology adoption scenarios in focus and non-focus countries and for focus and non-focus crops. The model also accounts for varying "poverty-productivity" elasticities across commodities (a synthetic measure linking productivity gains and poverty reduction).

South African Agricultural Production and Productivity Patterns

Here we document and discuss developments regarding aggregate input, output, and productivity developments within South Africa. To do so we draw on an entirely new set of production data stretching back to 1910/11 reported in Liebenberg 2010, as well as related evidence reported by other studies for South Africa and other countries within subSaharan Africa.

Potential Impact of Investments in Drought Tolerant Maize in Africa
