Trajectories of crop-livestock integration in the context of specialization in Northwest Vietnam

, 2022
Mixed crop–livestock systems, the world's most widespread farming systems, promote farm resilience through diversification and allow for crop–livestock integration (CLI). Intensification and specialization challenge these systems. In Northwest Vietnam, the standard farm model is based on mixed crop–livestock family farms but is shifting towards more ...

Impact of crop-livestock-forest integration on soil quality

Agroforestry Systems, 2018
Integrated agricultural production systems with trees, grain crops and forage species are important for land use optimization. However, they can result in non-uniform changes in physical and chemical soil properties. The objective of this work was to evaluate chemical and physical soil properties in a eucalyptus-based agroforestry system.

Determinants of crop-livestock integration by small farmers in Benin

International Journal of Biological and Chemical Sciences, 2016
Despite the numerous work conducted on integrated crop-livestock systems, very little is known about factors determining farmers’ trend to integrate. Our study aimed at a socioeconomic characterization of endogenous crop-livestock integration in Benin and identification of determinants of farmers’ decision to use these practices.
