Disorientations: The Political Ecology of “Displacing” Floating Communities from Cambodia's Tonle Sap Lake

open access: yesAntipode, Volume 56, Issue 5, Page 1535-1559, September 2024.
Abstract In this article, we extend a theory of disorientations to reveal how attempts to fix and control both water and people are disrupting once‐fluid relationships between the Tonle Sap Lake and communities who have lived with‐on the lake for generations. Using ethnographic and participatory mapping methods, we examine the socio‐ecological dynamics

Intercropping Maize with Faba Bean Improves Yield, Income, and Soil Fertility in Semiarid Environment

open access: yesScientifica, Volume 2024, Issue 1, 2024.
Continuous adoption of improved maize varieties in the last three decades has changed farm landscapes from heterogeneity to maize homogeneity in semiarid areas of Ethiopia. This has substantially decreased maize productivity. Recently, farmers have integrated faba bean into maize‐based farming systems aimed at increasing productivity.
