Land management strategies for seaport authorities. University of Antwerp
Enhancing farmer's benefits from integrated soil fertility management through improved water use efficiency and better marketing strategies in het Highlands of Central Kenya. KU Leuven
Improving crop production by field management strategies using crop water productivity modeling: Case study of tef (Eragrostis tef (Zucc.) Trotter) production in Tigray, Ethiopia. KU Leuven
Increasing food production to feed the fast growing world population particularly in developing countries relies on two options: either increase the arable land or improve the productivity of the existing cultivated land. This research focuses on the highly populated highlands ofTigray (northern Ethiopia), where improving the productivity of land isthe only option for sustainable food production. In the drought-prone and highly ...
Terraces as a land management strategy in the Eastern Mediterranean: A long-term perspective KU Leuven
Terrassen maken een integraal onderdeel uit van het mediterrane landschap. Ondanks hun wijdverspreide voorkomen, is de geschiedenis van terrasbouw weinig gekend omdat het moeilijk is om enerzijds hun aanleg te dateren en anderzijds hun historisch landgebruik te determineren. Dit heeft algemeen onderzoek belemmerd naar wanneer en waarom rurale gemeenschappen terrassen aanlegden en hoe hun langetermijninvesteringen en -keuzes deze landschappen ...
Terraces as a land management strategy in the Eastern Mediterranean: a long-term perspective Vrije Universiteit Brussel
Despite their widespread occurrence, the history of terraces has
remained poorly understood due to problems with accurately dating
their construction and modification over time and determining past
cultivation practices for which they were used. This has hampered
broader research on the histories of terraced landscapes, examining
when and ...

Sustainable climate management strategy to preserve federal collections. Climate2Preserv KU Leuven
Climate2Preserv aims at helping FSIs to improve the environmental preservation conditions of their cultural heritage (temperature, relative humidity) while optimizing the energy consumption of their storage and exhibition spaces. Furthermore, the project will contribute to the ongoing (inter)national effort on those Preventive Conservation (PC) and Environmental Sustainability (ES) questions by broadly disseminating the project results.
