Kiruwa, F.H.Mutiga, SamuelNjuguna, Joyce N.Machuka, EuniceSenay, S.Feyissa, T.Ndakidemi, P.A.Stomeo, Francesca[Status and epidemiology of maize lethal necrotic disease in northern Tanzania]Status and epidemiology of maize lethal necrotic disease in northern Tanzania

Soil fertility depletion is considered one of the main biophysical limiting factors for increasing per capita food production for smallholder farmers in Sub-Saharan Africa. The adoption and diffusion of sustainable agricultural practices (SAPs), as a way to tackle this challenge, has become an im...

Plantain and banana (Musa spp.) are integral components of the farming systems in the humid forest and mid-altitude ecologies of sub-saharan Africa. They provide more than 25% of the carbohydrates for approximately 70 million people in the region. Major constraints to plantain and banana producti...

Water harvesting systems have improved productivity in various regions in sub-Saharan Africa. Similarly, they can help retain water in landscapes, build resilience against droughts and dry spells, and thereby contribute to sustainable agricultural intensification. However, there is no strong empi...

Conservation agriculture (CA) and no-till (NT)-based cropping systems could address soil degradation and fertility decline in southern Africa. A multi-location and multi-year experiment was carried out between 2008 and 2014 to assess the effects of different levels of maize residue biomass (0, 2,...
