Agriculture africaine et traction animale
Ce guide est à l'usage des agents de développement des régions intertropicales d'Afrique pour le conseil et la formation des agriculteurs en matière d'utilisation de la traction animale. Environnement, animaux de trait, maîtrise de l'attelage, techniques culturales et les équipements : cet ouvrage a pour objectif d'aider l'agriculteur dans son choix en fonction de ses besoins et dans le cadre de son unité de production.
Working animals in agriculture and transport
This book covers many of the recent research observations on the management and use of working animals in tropical agricultural systems. Studies of oxen, donkeys and camels in sub-Saharan Africa, cows and donkeys in Ethiopia, buffaloes in Vietnam, camels in Libya and horses and donkeys in Southern Italy are some of the topics included. Technical issues in nutritional requirement, feeding, management, health, implement, work practices and harnessing are discussed and the contribution that working animals continue to make in many agricultural and transport activities are quantified. The book is a valuable source of reference materials on draught animal technology. It is a must for any scientist, student or extension worker in rural and urban areas where animal power is found.
Harnessing and Implements for Animal Traction
Covers use in soil preparation, harvesting, irrigation, fertilizer application, etc.
Meeting the Challenges of Animal Traction
This new resource book provides a wealth of ideas and experiences concerning animal traction in many countries. This publication has been developed from the ATNESA workshop held in Kenya on 'meeting the challenges of animal traction' and draws together key papers and contributions from professionals in 27 different countries. The papers address a number of important challenges to animal traction that relate to participation, environment, gender, extension, transport, equipment and animal husbandry. In addition, several papers describe national-level challenges and project attempts to address these. It will be of great value to all those concerned with the development of animal power, tropical agricultural development and rural transport, especially those involved in participative research, training, extension, development, planning, gender issues and project implementation.

La motorisation dans les cultures tropicales
Outil de conseil pour l'utilisation de la motorisation, ce guide aborde les caractéristiques techniques des matériels et met l'accent sur la diversité des choix possibles en matière de façons culturales et sur les interactions entre motorisation, pratiques culturales et traction animale. Les grands types de culture sont analysés en insistant sur les contraintes propres à la mise en oeuvre de la motorisation.
Climate Change, Air Pollution and Global Challenges
There are significant pressures from climate change and air pollution that forests currently face. This book aims to increase understanding of the state and potential of forest ecosystems to mitigate and adapt to climate change in a polluted environment. It reconciles process-oriented research, long-term monitoring and applied modeling through comprehensive forest ecosystem research. Furthermore, it introduces "forest super sites for research for integrating soil, plant and atmospheric sciences and monitoring. It also provides mechanistic and policy-oriented modeling with scientifically sound risk indications regarding atmospheric changes and ecosystem services. - Identifies current knowledge gaps and emerging research needs - Highlights novel methodologies and integrated research concepts - Assesses ecological meaning of investigations and prioritizing research need
Tropospheric Ozone
This book presents updated and relevant information on the tropospheric ozone problem and its effects on the plants and human health. The contributions here present in-depth knowledge about history, pattern, sources, environmental factors and other necessary aspects of the tropospheric ozone problem. The book provides a balanced view of current developments on the effects of the tropospheric ozone on plant and human health, crop production and ecosystem services. In addition to the effects of the tropospheric ozone on growth and physiological and biochemical traits, it also considers the molecular basis of plant responses to ozone. The book encompasses a holistic view on various interconnected issues of ozone pollution, and will appeal to scientists from all over the world.
