Rainfall forecasts, learning subsidies and conservation agriculture adoption: Experimental evidence from Zambia by Hambulo Ngoma, Esau Simutowe, João Vasco Silva, Isaiah Nyagumbo, Kelvin Kalala, Mukwemba Habeenzu, Christian Thierfelder

“…We found that providing rainfall forecasts predicting low rainfall significantly increased the probability of adopting conservation agriculture by 8 percentage points, while offering a subsidy increased the chances of adoption by 11 percentage points. Bundling rainfall forecasts and subsidies did not significantly influence adoption, perhaps because these were not complementary. …”

slendr: a framework for spatio-temporal population genomic simulations on geographic landscapes by Petr, Martin, Haller, Benjamin C., Ralph, Peter L., Racimo, Fernando

“…To address this methodological gap, we present a new framework for simulating spatially-explicit genomic data, implemented in a new R package called slendr (www.slendr.net), which leverages a SLiM simulation back-end script bundled with the package. With this framework, the users can programmatically and visually encode spatial population ranges and their temporal dynamics (i.e., population displacements, expansions, and contractions) either on real Earth landscapes or on abstract custom maps, and schedule splits and gene-flow events between populations using a straightforward declarative language. …”
