• 38 field pairs
monitored (same
catena class, same
farmer, contiguous,
trees removed)
• Stdev(NDVI) differs
in 82% of pairs (50% in
CRT fields)
• Mean NDVI differs in
87% of pairs (55% in CRT
fields)
Learnings

•
•
•
•

Intra-specific variability in reflectance is larger than inter-specific
variability (time-specific, with exceptions)
Spatial uncertainty inherent to biomass predictions does not change
significantly from 2 to 30m resolution (time-specific)
RMSEP (DM) modestly decreases with model complexity
Cloud cover remains a major constraint to peak biomass acquisitions
Discriminating between cotton and cereals important for unbiased
landscape-scale biomass estimates
Tree management is independent of underlying crop type – tree mask
required for crop recognition
Stereoscopic (or lidar) monitoring of canopy height next quick & dirty
improvement for biomass estimates
Thank you!

  • 16. Contour ridge tillage effects on NDVI • 38 field pairs monitored (same catena class, same farmer, contiguous, trees removed) • Stdev(NDVI) differs in 82% of pairs (50% in CRT fields) • Mean NDVI differs in 87% of pairs (55% in CRT fields)
  • 17. Learnings • • • • • • • Intra-specific variability in reflectance is larger than inter-specific variability (time-specific, with exceptions) Spatial uncertainty inherent to biomass predictions does not change significantly from 2 to 30m resolution (time-specific) RMSEP (DM) modestly decreases with model complexity Cloud cover remains a major constraint to peak biomass acquisitions Discriminating between cotton and cereals important for unbiased landscape-scale biomass estimates Tree management is independent of underlying crop type – tree mask required for crop recognition Stereoscopic (or lidar) monitoring of canopy height next quick & dirty improvement for biomass estimates

  1. Picture: Contour ridge with shea tree in Fansirakoro (Kolokani district, Koulikoro region, Mali)
  2. Human and animal population growth: By 2050 Nigeria will be 402-450M and 3d largest country by population Changes in dietary preferences, driven by: Urbanization Rise of middle class globalization C sequestration: Initial motivation behind work. Opportunity to change management practices with win-win situations Bio-fuels: Western West Africa on a ‘Fazenda’ intensification pathway? Eastern West Africa on a ‘Bhoochetana’ intensification pathway. Opportunities for sweet sorghums. In Hausa tradition, when a baby is born, populations cut a tree. This little girl is now a young bride and may look at sorghum as an alternative fuel source
  3. Systematize yield variability mapping Ghana, Upper West Region - High fragmentation of land tenure – still large area uncultivated (low population density, ca. 25 hab.km-2) – mixed cropping very largely dominant – little to no animal traction – irregular field geometries not amenable to mechanization unless farms coalesce – extensification still more attractive Mali, Cotton Belt - Similar agro-ecology to previous (850mm rainfall) - regular field geometries more amenable to mechanization – animal traction everywhere – long history of intensification (cotton belt) – almost only sole crops in triennal rotations Reference to CerLiveTrees Linkage to Full Biomass Asssessments Participatory research tool
  4. Food security profile: Mean Quantity of production and consumption for main crops in Farakoro and Kani per season .   For the two villages Maize is the most consumed crop. Production of vegetable is very marginal in the two villages for the population of households surveyed. Data analyses and publications: Forthcoming internal DSCRP report – outline currently being sketched out by Joachim and Manda Potential publications to be generated before data is released in public domain in end 2014: A.A. Ayantunde: first, identify research questions A.A. Ayantunde: compare KKM and WBS transects based on the CRP Dryland hypothesis of different potential for intensification along the two transects A.A. Ayantunde: results on external inputs use, household assets, crop-livestock integration can provide some guidance on the potential for intensification Proposed next step: set up a task force for analysis and publication of HH survey results (I propose that A.A. Ayantunde leads that task force)
