Yield decline in yam may not only be due to soil nutrient depletion but also to the activity of soilmicroflora. Arbuscular mycorrhizal (AM) symbiosis helps in plant nutrition but may be affected bythe application of fertilizer. The effects of nitrogen (N), phosphorus (P), and potassium (K) fertil...

Agricultural water management, particularly management of multi-purpose small reservoirs (SRs) in drier savanna areas of the northern Ghana, is being promoted as a key solution to improve agricultural production, enhance food security and livelihoods of smallholder farm households. However, littl...

Irrigation using untreated wastewater poses health risks to farmers and consumers of crop products, especially vegetables. With hardly any wastewater treatment in Ghana, a multiple-barrier approach was adopted and safe re-use practices were developed through action research involving a number of ...

Wastewater irrigation is becoming a global phenomenon, as a result of global water scarcity and increased pollution of water sources. While this practice offers many opportunities, human health risks from contaminated soils and crops irrigated with wastewater pose the greatest challenges to this ...

The use of microbial inoculants and less expensive sources of plant nutrients such as foliar fertilizers are ways to practice low-input agriculture, especially in sub-Saharan Africa where smallholder farmers’ soil nutrients are depleted. However, the application of microbial inoculants and foliar...
