“…It aimed to improve knowledge of the production systems, identify opportunities to improve their efficiency and sustainability, promote farmer participation, provide decision support tools, educate producers and citizens at all levels. The conceptual framework, outputs and outcomes of the REACCH project can be accessed through its web site: https://www.reacchpna.org, and in publications, including some appearing in this special issue of Frontiers in Ecology and Evolution: (1) Develop a theoretical framework integrating cropping system, economic and climate modeling (Abatzoglou et al, 2014;Antle et al, 2017;Stöckle et al, 2017), (2) Monitor greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions and nitrogen and carbon dynamics in the production systems (Chi et al, , 2017Waldo et al, 2016;Kostyanovsky et al, 2017), (3) Compare current and aspirational production systems for productivity and GHG emission potential under current and projected climate Brown et al, 2017;Maaz T. M. et al, 2017;Stöckle et al, 2017), (4) Address the environmental, social, and economic factors influencing agriculture and technology adoption (Antle et al, 2017;Karimi et al, 2017;Kaur et al, 2017), (5) Anticipate climate change related changes in crop protection requirements (Davis et al, 2015a(Davis et al, ,b, 2017Eigenbrode et al, 2015;Foote et al, 2017), (6) Work closely with producers to develop and guide project activities (Kruger and Yorgey, 2017;Yorgey et al, 2017), (7) Educate students from elementary through graduate levels to prepare coming generations for challenges related to climate change in agriculture (White et al, 2014), (8) Ensure data from the project and related projects are managed to facilitate detecting trends and interdisciplinary collaboration (Flathers et al, 2017), and (9) Coordinate all these activities under an integrated, transdisciplinary framework Morton et al, 2015).…”
