Maize is a major staple food crop in southern Africa and stress tolerant improved varieties have the potential to increase productivity, enhance livelihoods and reduce food insecurity. This study uses big data in refining the geospatial targeting of new drought-tolerant (DT) maize varieties in Ma...

Laser land leveling has been increasingly adopted in the irrigated
rice (Oryza sativa L.)–wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) cropping
system in the state of Haryana (India), located in the
north-western Indo-Gangetic Plains. Still, many farmers have
applied it to only a fraction of their land. In this ...

Beyond conservation agriculture
Although conceptually simple and often idealized, disentangling crop–livestock interactions typically proves more complex in practice. Part of the complexity arises from their changing nature along agricultural intensification gradients. Such interactions increase in scope when extensive systems ...

Conservation Agriculture (CA) is being advocated to enhance soil health and sustain long term crop productivity in the developing world. One of CA's key principles is the maintenance of soil cover often by retaining a proportion of crop residues on the field as mulch. Yet smallholder crop–livesto...
