| 요약 | In Uganda, energy and food security are declining. Both depend on biomass in its traditional forms of charcoal and firewood for cooking and heating. With a fast growing population and increasing energy demand, biomass resources have been declini |
| 요약 | In the first paper, this study estimated electricity potential from agricultural residues using the performance of the existing gasification technology in Uganda. Electricity estimates were developed for technical potential and wasted residues p |
| 요약 | In the second paper, food security was examined in relation to socioeconomic status, crop production, and soil quality determinants at household level using logistic regression. Total acreage and yields of banana and beans were positively associ |
| 요약 | Third, soil quality and fertility were examined across cropping systems and soil types. Soil quality (pH at depths of 0 to 10 cm and 20 to 30 cm, CEC, and EC) and fertility (Ca and Mg) varied by cropping system. Annual rotation and banana system |
| 요약 | Finally, energy and food security were jointly analyzed in the context of biomass scarcity. The analysis evaluated temporal trends (2004--2014) in energy and food security as well as their associations with biomass availability. Energy and food |
