Quantifying Vulnerability of Agricultural Systems in India to Weather Extremes

Creator:: Kulkarni, Kedar
Abstract:: Extreme weather events are expected to increase globally due to climate change thereby posing substantial risks to agricultural communities. The implications are especially high for tropical countries like India as the heavy dependence of agricultural sector to uncertain monsoons makes its agriculture highly vulnerable to weather variability and extremes. In...

The benefits of diversified agricultural systems among Maya Mopan farmers in southern Belize

Creator:: Hofbauer, Derek M.
Abstract:: Maya Mopan farmers in southern Belize face socio-economic hardships, persisting environmental constraints, and an unfavorable political climate that has prevented land tenure stability on reservation lands. This thesis describes the agricultural practices of a group of Mopan farmers and examines farm-site diversification and its relationship to ecological knowledge, out-migration, agricultural...

Conserving avian diversity in agricultural systems : the role of isolated Oregon white oak legacy trees

Creator:: DeMars, Craig A.
Abstract:: Over one third of the earth’s land surface has been modified to some extent for agricultural purposes. The large global footprint of agriculture, combined with the knowledge that existing reserve networks are likely insufficient for long-term conservation of native biodiversity, has necessitated that agricultural systems contribute to conservation of native...

Breeding Snap Beans for Organic Agriculture: Genomic Shifts under Different Agricultural Management Systems

Creator:: King, Ryan M.
Abstract:: Although the concept of breeding crops for organic agricultural systems has been around for decades, few studies have been reported for vegetable crops to quantify and compare how conventional and organic systems differ in their selection pressures on genotypes advancing through the breeding cycle; especially research utilizing modern sequencing capabilities....

Effects of pollen collected by honey bees from pollination dependent agricultural cropping systems on honey bee nutrition

Creator:: Topitzhofer, Ellen
Abstract:: Managed honey bee (Apis mellifera L.) colonies are important pollinators of many cultivated crops. Honey bee colony declines averaging 30% annually in the United States for the past 7 years have caused significant concern and hence have been a topic of intensive investigation. These declines are reportedly due to multiple...

Federal Policy, Rural Community Growth, and Wealth Creation: The Impact of the Federal Forest Policy and Rural Development Spending in the Pacific Northwest

Creator:: Chen, Yong and Weber, Bruce
Abstract:: "In this paper, we use community-level data from Oregon’s 234 rural communities, which we define as incorporated cities with less than 50,000 people, to analyze Federal forest policy. We hypothesize that positive policy impacts due to amenity-related migration were confined to nearby communities, while the negative impacts due to mill...

Land-use in the Willamette Valley from 2004-2017

Creator:: Strimbu, Bogdan M., Mueller-Warrant, George, and Trippe, Kristin
Abstract:: The Willamette Valley, bounded on the west by the Coast Range and on the east by the Cascade Mountains, is the largest river valley completely confined to Oregon. The fertile valley soils combined with a temperate, marine climate create ideal agronomic conditions for seed production. Historically, seed cropping systems in...
