Abstract | The impact of land use changes on sustainable development is of increasing interest in many regions of the world. This study aimed to test the transferability of the Framework for Participatory Impact Assessment (FoPIA), which was originally developed in the European context, to developing countries, in which lack of data often prevents the use of data-driven impact assessment methods. The core aspect of FoPIA is the stakeholder-based assessment of alternative land use scenarios. Scenario impacts on regional sustainability are assessed by using a set of nine regional land use functions (LUFs), which equally cover the economic, social and environmental dimensions of sustainability. The cases analysed in this study include (1) the alternative spatial planning policies around the Merapi volcano and surrounding areas of Yogyakarta City, Indonesia; (2) the large-scale afforestation of agricultural areas to reduce soil erosion in Guyuan, China; (3) the expansion of soil and water conservation measures in the Oum Zessar watershed, Tunisia; (4) the agricultural intensification and the potential for organic agriculture in Bijapur, India; and (5) the land degradation and land conflicts resulting from land division and privatisation in Narok, Kenya. All five regions are characterised by population growth, partially combined with considerable economic development, environmental degradation problems and social conflicts. Implications of the regional scenario impacts as well as methodological aspects are discussed. Overall, FoPIA proved to be a useful tool for diagnosing regional human-environment interactions and for supporting the communication and social learning process among different stakeholder groups. | ||||

Title | National and transnational dairy cows biometeorological datasets linked to productive, reproductive and health performances data | Type | Report | ||
Year | 2013 | Publication | FACCE MACSUR Reports | Abbreviated Journal | |
Volume | 1 | Issue | Pages | D-L1.2.1 | |
Keywords | |||||
Abstract | Different datasets have been completed and are now available for the analysis of interannual and seasonal variations of productive, reproductive or health data relative to intensively dairy cows and also to establish the relationships between temperature humidity index (THI) and dairy cow performances. Datasets are referred to different European countries (Italy, Belgium, Luxembourg and Slovenia) with different climatic features. All these datasets have data relative to Animal Pedigree (Cow ID, Birth date, Breed, Sire ID and Dam ID), Test-day records (Cow ID, Herd ID, Parity, Calving date, Test date, Milk yield, Milk fat and protein (%), Milk somatic cell score), Reproductive events (Cow ID, Herd ID, Parity, Calving date, AI date, Sire ID, Days Open, NRR-56 day), and Daily meteorological records (Meteo station ID, Zip code of the meteo station, Observation date, Max temperature, Min temperature, Mean temperature, Max relative humidity, Min relative humidity, Mean relative humidity, Solar radiation, Wind speed). The dataset relative to Italy includes also Mortality data (Animal ID, Herd ID, Death date) and Bulk milk quality data (Herd ID, Test date, Fat & protein (%), Somatic cell score, Bacterial count, Herd latitude, Herd longitude, Herd elevation). An additional database is still under construction and will be based on Spanish data from organic dairy farms. No Label | ||||
