Striga asiatica and Rhamphicarpa fistulosa are important parasitic weeds of rain-fed rice, partly distributed in similar regions in sub-Saharan Africa (SSA). It is not evident whether their ecologies are mutually exclusive or partially overlapping. In Kyela, a rice-growing area in south Tanzania ...

Can the parasitic weeds Striga asiatica and Rhamphicarpa fistulosa co-occur in rain-fed rice?
Parasitic weeds such as Striga spp and Rhamphicarpa fistulosa in smallholder rice production systems form
an increasing problem for food and income security in sub-Saharan Africa. In this paper we implement
the Rapid Appraisal of Agricultural Innovation Systems (RAAIS) as a diagnostic tool to ide...

RAAIS: Rapid Appraisal of Agricultural Innovation Systems (Part II); integrated analysis of parasitic weed problems in rice in Tanzania
The objective of this paper is to explore the extent to which systems approaches to innovation are reflected in the crop protection literature and how such approaches are used. A systematic literature review is conducted to study the relation between crop protection and systems approaches to inno...

Systems approaches to innovation in crop protection. A systematic literature review
Rain-fed rice production in sub-Saharan Africa is often hampered by parasitic weeds. This study assessed farmers’ awareness, use, preference and adoption criteria of parasitic weed management practices in rain-fed rice production environments in Tanzania. Surveys and workshops were organized in t...

Farmers’ knowledge, use and preferences of parasitic weed management strategies in rain-fed rice production systems
This paper introduces Rapid Appraisal of Agricultural Innovation Systems (RAAIS). RAAIS is a diagnostic
tool that can guide the analysis of complex agricultural problems and innovation capacity of the agricultural
system in which the complex agricultural problem is embedded. RAAIS focuses on the ...
