Book Synopsis Methodological guide to reduce carbon and water footprints in banana plantations by : Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations
Download or read book Methodological guide to reduce carbon and water footprints in banana plantations written by Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations and published by Food & Agriculture Org.. This book was released on 2018-10-30 with total page 140 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The World Banana Forum (WBF) publication developed a methodological guide to reduce water and carbon footprints in banana plantations worldwide. Members of the Working Group (WG) on Sustainable Production Systems and Environmental Impact acknowledged the contribution of banana production in the total global GHG emissions and the consumption of freshwater in the economic activity, both stressed in the 2015 Paris Climate Conference (COP21), having the agricultural sector a high mitigation potential. Therefore, the WG wishes to contribute to the global fight against climate change and promote the sustainable use of natural resources, developing practical tools to strengthen the efforts of the global banana industry to reduce its carbon and water footprint (CWF). Since banana farmers are struggling to adapt to climate change, the project aims to mainstream and support the adoption of best climate-smart practices and efficient water management in the banana value chain as part of the environmental strategy of organizations. Efforts to promote CWF reduction programs in the banana industry are still incipient and carried out mostly by multinationals, due in part to the implementation costs, the complexity of the topic for farmers, the lack of user-friendly tools to measure them efficiently, and that is still a B2B-driven strategy not yet recognized by consumers. Even though the need for supporting carbon and water footprint analysis (CWF) in the banana industry remains strong, there is still an apparent lack of sufficient financial incentives by both the governments and the global market.

Book Synopsis Measuring carbon and water footprints in pineapple value chains by : Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations
Download or read book Measuring carbon and water footprints in pineapple value chains written by Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations and published by Food & Agriculture Org. [Author] [Author]. This book was released on 2024-07-29 with total page 200 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This technical guide on measuring carbon and water footprints was developed to support resilient and sustainable businesses in pineapple value chains. By quantifying and reducing GHG emissions, companies can become more resource efficient, reduce costs, enhance the resilience of their operations and contribute to climate change mitigation. Quantifying water use and reducing pollution can help ensure that sufficient, good quality water is available for both communities and businesses. This technical guide aims to develop the capacity of users and empower them to make their own carbon and water footprint calculations independently. It has two main objectives: (1) introduce companies in the pineapple value chain to a methodology to estimate the carbon footprint of their operations, including production, packing, processing and transportation to port; and (2) introduce companies in the pineapple value chain to a methodology to estimate the footprint of their direct water use, from production to transportation to the port. The guide was prepared by the Responsible Fruits Project with support from the Government of Germany. It is closely linked to the project’s technical guide Adapting to climate change in the tropical fruit industry: a technical guide for pineapple producers and exporters.

Book Synopsis Innovation Issues in Water, Agriculture and Food by : Maria do Rosario Cameira
Download or read book Innovation Issues in Water, Agriculture and Food written by Maria do Rosario Cameira and published by MDPI. This book was released on 2019-07-15 with total page 406 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In a worldwide context of ever-growing competition for water and land, climate change, droughts and man-made water scarcity, and less-participatory water governance, agriculture faces the great challenge of producing enough food for a continually increasing population. In this line, this book provides a broad overview of innovation issues in the complex water–agriculture–food nexus, thus also relative to their interconnections and dependences. Issues refer to different spatial scales, from the field or the farm to the irrigation system or the river basin. Multidisciplinary approaches are used when analyzing the relationships between water, agriculture, and food security. The covered issues are quite diverse and include: innovation in crop evapotranspiration, crop coefficients and modeling; updates in research relative to crop water use and saving; irrigation scheduling and systems design; simulation models to support water and agricultural decisions; issues to cope with water scarcity and climate change; advances in water resource quality and sustainable uses; new tools for mapping and use of remote sensing information; and fostering a participative and inclusive governance of water for food security and population welfare. This book brings together a variety of contributions by leading international experts, professionals, and scholars in those diverse fields. It represents a major synthesis and state-of-the-art on various subjects, thus providing a valuable and updated resource for all researchers, professionals, policymakers, and post-graduate students interested in the complex world of the water–agriculture–food nexus.

Book Synopsis Integrated Pollution Prevention and Control for the Municipal Water Cycle in a River Basin Context by : Alberto Galvis-Castaño
Download or read book Integrated Pollution Prevention and Control for the Municipal Water Cycle in a River Basin Context written by Alberto Galvis-Castaño and published by CRC Press. This book was released on 2019-08-14 with total page 228 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The protection of water resources from deterioration in quality by pollution discharges is probably the biggest challenge in sustainable water resources management in the recent decades. In practice, most countries have adopted pollution control strategies and measures which are based on ‘end-of-pipe’ solutions: wastewater treatment plants and adjustments to the regulations, including taxes for wastewater discharges (Conventional Strategy). Although this approach involves very high costs, on many occasions, this strategy has been a complete failure. The research described in this book contribute to the development of sustainable solutions for the previously outlined problem. It was based on the validation of the Three-Step Strategic Approach concept (3-SSA), which includes: 1) prevention or minimisation of waste production; 2) treatment aimed at recovery and reuse of waste components, and 3) disposal of remaining waste with stimulation of natural self-purification of the receiving water body. The study showed overall positive effects of the 3-SSA, in comparison of Conventional Strategy, on wastewater management in the Upper Basin (389 km) of the Cauca river, the second most important river in Colombia. The Cost Benefit Analysis clearly favoured the 3-SSA, generating a major impact on the river water quality at lower cost compared to the Conventional Strategy.

This book was released on 2007 with total page 252 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The aim of this paper is to facilitate the planning and design of land drainage systems for sound land and water management for engineers and other professionals. It considers the integration of technical, socio-economic and environmental factors and the need for system users' participation in the planning, design, operation and maintenance processes. The text provides guidelines for the appropriate identification of drainage problems, for the planning and design of field drainage systems (surface and subsurface) and the main drainage and disposal systems. The annexes provide more detailed information with technical background, appropriate equations, some cross-references for finding appropriate methodologies, and computer programs for calculation of extreme values, of permeability and some land drainage system parameters. --Publisher's description.
