This 32-chapter volume represents the core of several oral and
poster presentations made at the conference. In addition to
Introduction and Conclusion sections, the book is thematically
divided into 7 sections, namely, 1) Land Use and Farming Systems,
2) Effects of Climate Change on Crop Yield, 3) Soil Nutrient and
Water Management for Carbon Sequestration, 4) Rehabilitation of
Degraded Lands through Forestry and Agroforestry, 5) Management of
Animal Production for Greenhouse Gas Emissions, 6) Smallholder
Adaptation to Climate Change, and 7) Economic, Social and Policy
Issues. It addresses these themes in the context of sustainable
intensification (SI). It implies increasing agronomic production
from the existing land while improving/restoring its quality and
decreasing the C or environmental footprint. Simply put, SI means
producing more from less.
