Human vulnerability to climate variability in the sahel: Farmers' adaptation strategies in Northern Burkina Faso
TL;DR: The results confirm that farmers from this community have substantially changed their practices during the last few decades, and most of the new techniques have been adopted because of growing land scarcity and new market opportunities, rather than because of climate variability.

Advancing climate-smart-agriculture in developing drylands: Joint analysis of the adoption of multiple on-farm soil and water conservation technologies in West African Sahel
TL;DR: In this article, the authors used a joint analysis framework combining both multivariate and ordered probit models to analyze adoption-decisions for eleven on-farm SWC practices in West African drylands.
Journal ArticleDOI
Induced innovation and land degradation: Results from a bioeconomic model of a village in West Africa
TL;DR: In this article, a model combining a recursive and dynamic linear programming model with a biophysical model of soil condition and plant growth is proposed to predict yields and land degradation for different type of land, land use and cropping patterns.
