In Ethiopia vertisols of the highlands are vast and underutilized. For increasing production on highland vertisol, a joint vertisol project undertook a range of integrated research activities. ILCA's research in this partnership project, the integrated research activities, the research approach, ...

Research on crop and livestock intensification on small farm vertisols: ILCA's experience
Crop and livestock subsystems in the Ethiopian highlands interact with each other in many wasy. The livestock subsystem has output, input, asset, and security and investment functions in the farming system. Animal traction and crop residues are the prominent binding elements of the crop and lives...
