Rurinda, J.Wijk, Mark T. vanMapfumo, PaulDescheemaeker, KatrienSupit, I.Giller, Ken E.[Climate change and maize yield in southern Africa: what can farm management do?]Climate change and maize yield in southern Africa: what can farm management do?

Oil palm, currently the world’s main vegetable oil crop, is characterised by a large productivity and a long life span (≥25 years). Peak oil yields of 12 t ha−1 yr−1 have been achieved in small plantations, and maximum theoretical yields as calculated with simulation models are 18.5 t oil ha−1 yr...

Climbing beans offer potential for sustainable intensification in the East-African highlands, but their introduction requires a major change in the cropping system compared with the commonly grown bush bean. We explored farm-level opportunities, constraints and trade-offs for climbing bean cultiv...


Ronner, E.Descheemaeker, KatrienMarinus, W.Almekinders, Conny J.M.Ebanyat, PeterGiller, Ken E.[How do climbing beans fit in farming systems of the eastern highlands of Uganda? Understanding opportunities and constraints at farm level]How do climbing beans fit in farming systems of the eastern highlands of Uganda? Understanding opportunities and constraints at farm level

Reducing the gap between water-limited potential yield and actual yield in oil palm production systems through intensification is seen as an important option for sustainably increasing palm oil production. Simulation models can play an important role in quantifying water-limited potential yield, ...

Improving bacterial nitrogen fixation in grain legumes is central to sustainable intensification of agriculture in sub-Saharan Africa. In the case of soyabean, two main approaches have been pursued: first, promiscuous varieties were developed to form effective symbiosis with locally abundant nitr...

Livestock is an essential component of smallholder farming systems in the East African highlands. The ‘One cow per poor family’ programme was initiated in Rwanda as part of a poverty alleviation strategy, aiming to increase the livestock population. A four month-study was conducted in Umurera vil...
