Non-autonomous Ginzburg-Landau solitons using the He-Li mapping method
MAXIMINO PEREZ MALDONADO Haret Codratian Rosu ELIZABETH FLORES GARDUÑO (2022)
"We find and discuss the non-autonomous soliton solutions in the case of variable nonlinearity and dispersion implied by the Ginzburg-Landau equation with variable coefficients. In this work we obtain non-autonomous Ginzburg-Landau solitons from the standard autonomous Ginzburg-Landau soliton solutions using a simplified version of the He-Li mapping. We find soliton pulses of both arbitrary and fixed amplitudes in terms of a function constrained by a single condition involving the nonlinearity and the dispersion of the medium. This is important because it can be used as a tool for the parametric manipulation of these non-autonomous solitons. "

El grado de emisión de gases de efecto invernadero (GEI) está ligado al desarrollo socioeconómico de las naciones acorde con sus esquemas productivos. Bajo la tendencia actual, a corto plazo se espera un acelerado incremento de gases de efecto invernadero en la atmósfera. Para correlacionar el cambio del clima con distintos impactos terrestres, en este trabajo se parte de una descripción del balance de energía, enfatizando la importancia de la presencia de GEI en la atmósfera. Los resultados indican que la agricultura en México ha sufrido impactos negativos de este proceso, en términos de incertidumbre climática, y ha causado, junto con otros factores, la emigración del campo de miles de personas. Las consecuencias del cambio climático son cuantificadas en términos de anomalías de precipitación, disponibilidad de agua y disminución en la producción agrícola de acuerdo con modelos de simulación biológica de procesos bajo diferentes escenarios de producción de gases de efecto invernadero. Se concluye con una propuesta de mecanismos de acción y preguntas por responder mediante el desarrollo de investigación.

Production and utilization of crop residues as mulch and effective weed management are two central elements in the successful implementation of Conservation Agriculture (CA) systems in southern Africa. Yet, the challenges of crop residue availability for mulch or the difficulties in managing weed proliferation in CA systems are bigger than a micro-level focus on weeds and crop residues themselves. The bottlenecks are symptoms of broader systemic complications that cannot be resolved without appreciating the interactions between the current scientific understanding of CA and its application in smallholder systems, private incentives, social norms, institutions, and government policy. In this paper, we elucidate a series of areas that represent some unquestioned answers about chemical weed control and unanswered questions about how to maintain groundcover demanding more research along the natural and social sciences continuum. In some communities, traditional rules that allow free-range grazing of livestock after harvesting present a barrier in surface crop residue management. On the other hand, many of the communities either burn, remove, or incorporate the residues into the soil thus hindering the near-permanent soil cover required in CA systems. The lack of soil cover also means that weed management through soil mulch is unachievable. Herbicides are often a successful stopgap solution to weed control, but they are costly, and most farmers do not use them as recommended, which reduces efficacy. Besides, the use of herbicides can cause environmental hazards and may affect human health. Here, we suggest further assessment of the manipulation of crop competition, the use of vigorously growing cover crops, exploration of allelopathy, and use of microorganisms in managing weeds and reducing seed production to deplete the soil weed seed bank. We also suggest in situ production of plant biomass, use of unpalatable species for mulch generation and change of grazing by-laws towards a holistic management of pastures to reduce the competition for crop residues. However, these depend on the socio-economic status dynamics at farmer and community level.

La agricultura de temporal se practica en tres cuartas partes de la superficie cultivada anualmente en México, y es componente fundamental en la construcción de un México más próspero e incluyente. En el trópico húmedo se localizan las zonas agrícolas con mayor potencial productivo, por lo que el gobierno federal ha constituido 23 Distritos de Temporal Tecnificado (DTT), en los que se ha construido obra hidráulica para el desalojo de los excedentes de agua de lluvia y escurrimiento, para evitar la erosión, para desalojar agua del manto freático y para suministrar el riego suplementario. En las zonas agrícolas se ha desarrollado un sistema de estadísticas agrícolas básico, que permite organizar y jerarquizar la planeación del mejor aprovechamiento de agua para la producción agrícola, tanto a corto plazo en los planes de riego anuales, como a largo plazo para la planeación del desarrollo de la agricultura. En este trabajo se presenta el informe final de las actividades llevadas a cabo para elaborar el libro de la estadística del año agrícola 2012 de los distritos de temporal tecnificado.

Research for development approaches in mixed crop-livestock systems of the Ethiopian highlands
Million Gebreyes James Hammond Lulseged Tamene Getachew Agegnehu Rabe Yahaya Anthony Whitbread (2023)
This study presents processes and success stories that emerged from Africa RISING's Research for Development project in the Ethiopian Highlands. The project has tested a combination of participatory tools at multiple levels, with systems thinking and concern for sustainable and diversified livelihoods. Bottom-up approaches guided the selection of technological interventions that could address the priority farming system challenges of the communities, leading to higher uptake levels and increased impact. Joint learning, appropriate technology selection, and the creation of an enabling environment such as the formation of farmer research groups, the establishment of innovation platforms, and capacity development for institutional and technical innovations were key to this study. The study concludes by identifying key lessons that focus more on matching innovations to community needs and geographies, systems orientation/integration of innovations, stepwise approaches to enhance the adoption of innovations, documenting farmers' capacity to modify innovations, building successful partnerships, and facilitating wider scaling of innovations for future implementation of agricultural research for development projects.

Análisis de cuatro variables del período de lluvias asociadas al cultivo de maíz temporal
Analysis of four variables associated with rainy seasonal in maize cultivation
MAURO IÑIGUEZ COVARRUBIAS WALDO OJEDA BUSTAMANTE CARLOS DIAZ DELGADO (2013)
Caracterizar y conocer las variables: inicio, duración, terminación de la estación lluviosa y la cantidad de precipitación con fines de precisar su magnitud y relacionarlas con la agricultura bajo condiciones de temporal, es y ha sido una preocupación importante para los agricultores y estudiosos de las ciencias agrícolas. En la región centro norte de México este problema se acentúa por la alta variabilidad de la estación lluviosa y la gran dependencia climática de la agricultura de temporal. La metodología indicada recrea cuatro variables climáticas de la estación lluviosa, analizadas por métodos reconocidos, y con base en un análisis probabilístico se asocian a la agricultura del cultivo del maíz de temporal. El estudio fue realizado para la región ubicada en el sur del estado de Zacatecas, México, sobre la estación climatológica Tlaltenango.

Weed management and tillage effect on rainfed maize production in three agro-ecologies in Mexico
Simon Fonteyne Abel Jaime Leal González Rausel Ovando Ravi Gopal Singh Nele Verhulst (2022)
Maize (Zea mays L.) is grown in a wide range of agro-ecological environments and production systems across Mexico. Weeds are a major constraint on maize grain yield, but knowledge regarding the best weed management methods is lacking. In many production systems, reducing tillage could lessen land degradation and production costs, but changes in tillage might require changes in weed management. This study evaluated weed dynamics and rainfed maize yield under five weed management treatments (pre-emergence herbicide, post-emergence herbicide, pre-emergence + post-emergence herbicide, manual weed control, and no control) and three tillage methods (conventional, minimum and zero tillage) in three agro-ecologically distinct regions of the state of Oaxaca, Mexico, in 2016 and 2017. In the temperate Mixteca region, weeds reduced maize grain yields by as much as 92% and the long-growing season required post-emergence weed control, which gave significantly higher yields. In the hot, humid Papaloapan region, weeds reduced maize yields up to 63% and pre-emergence weed control resulted in significantly higher yields than treatments with post-emergence control only. In the semi-arid Valles Centrales region, weeds reduced maize yields by as much as 65%, but weed management was not always effective in increasing maize yield or net profitability. The most effective weed management treatments tended to be similar for the three tillage systems at each site, although weed pressure and the potential yield reduction by weeds tended to be higher under zero tillage than minimum or conventional tillage. No single best option for weed management was found across sites or tillage systems. More research, in which non-chemical methods should not be overlooked, is thus needed to determine the most effective weed management methods for the diverse maize production systems across Mexico.
