Overview of AgMIP Regional Integrated Assessment (Cynthia Rosenzweig, Alex C Ruane, Carolyn Z Mutter, Erik Mencos Contreras, and Alessandro Moscuzza).

Press Release - Scientists and Stakeholders Work Together to Help Farmers Respond to Climate Change.

The entire volume shows how AgMIP has established, as a public good, protocols for Regional Integrated Assessments that improve the capability of developing countries to address climate change challenges. Part 1 describes regional integrated assessment methods and analyses, while Part 2 presents the outcomes of farming system studies. The chapters in this handbook demonstrate how AgMIP has enhanced the capacity of developing country researchers and stakeholders to work together, exploring and prioritizing adaptation to current and future climate stresses.

Through this research, AgMIP substantially improves the characterization and understanding of food security in SSA and SA and how its affected by climate variability and change. Transactions of the ASAE 26(l):63-73.This two-part handbook focuses on the work that the Agricultural Model Intercomparison and Improvement Project (AgMIP) accomplished using a new method - the AgMIP Regional Integrated Assessment Protocol - in Sub-Saharan Africa (SSA) and South Asia (SA), with funding from the UK Department for International Development.

A comprehensive review of the CERES-Wheat, -Maize and –Rice Models’ Performances. A comprehensive review on the CERES family of models, including CERES-Maize, is available in Basso et al. In spite of its 30+ years, CERES-Maize continues to be the most widely used maize model globally and remains the mother-seed of other maize models, including in APSIM (Keating et al., 2003) and the CSM-IXIM (Lizaso et al., 2011). The first time DSSAT was released in 1989 it included four crop models: CERES-Maize (Jones and Kiniry, 1986), CERES-Wheat (Ritchie and Otter, 1985), SOYGRO (Wilkerson et al., 1983), and PNUTGRO (Boote et al., 1989). According to FAO, maize farmers produced on average (2014-16) 1.04 billion tons of grain harvested in somewhat more than 185 million ha, for an average world yield of 5.6 ton/ha. Maize ( Zea mays L.) is the cereal crop most produced in the world.
