Crop wild relatives (CWRs) belonging to the Brassicaceae family possess extensive genetic diversity and have frequently been utilized in the enhancement of cultivated Brassica species. However, their tolerance to glyphosate, a widely used herbicide, has remained unknown.
In recent years, a growing literature has examined the potential of multifaceted, intensive “graduation model†interventions that simultaneously address multiple barriers constraining households’ exit from poverty.

A combination of factors, including policies, technological advancements in response to climate change
and social needs, and changes in market demand, have triggered considerable agricultural transformations
in recent decades (Timmer, 1988; Viswanathan et al., 2012; Thanh et al., 2021). Yet, technological
Forest and landscape restoration measures could address landscape degradation, increase ecosystem services, and improve livelihoods. However, mapping potential areas for forest and landscape restoration measures and identifying enabling and constraining factors is crucial for effective implementation.
