The overall goal of Balanced Nutrient Management Systems (BNMS) a collaborative project between International Institute of Tropical Agriculture (IITA) and Katholieke Universiteit Leuven (K.U. Leuven) is to curb the vicious cycle of plant nutrient depletion in maize-based farming systems in the mo...
The paper analyses innovation histories of two agro-mechanical and two seed-based technologies with high and low technological complexity, introduced into simple and complex farming systems in Asia. The main conclusion, which may be seen as a hypothesis for further testing, is that, as technology...
The types of technology change catalyzed by research interventions in integrated natural resource management (INRM) are likely to require much more social negotiation and adaptation than are changes related to plant breeding, the dominant discipline within the system of the Consultative Group on ...
This paper aims to identify the determinants of adoption of mechanized processing technologies in cassava processing. The paper is based on information collected at the farm-level in ten major cassava producing countries of Africa within the context of the Collaborative Study of Cassava in Africa...
This paper applies econometric analyses to quantitatively determine the individual risk attitudes of sampled maize farmers in the dry savanna zone of Nigeria. The extent of the risk attitudes are then made the basis for categorizing the farmers into three groups of low, intermediate and high risk...
On-farm research is aimed at developing technologies well match the goals and environment of farmers. At its various stages of diagnosis, choice of techniques, testing and validating technologies, ones would always ask questions: what technologies are developed, for whom and how? In this paper me...
