Insect pests pose major challenges to optimum productivity of amaranth in Africa and Asia. The use of insecticides is the main control strategy, but is expensive and may pose health and environmental concerns, especially if proper care is not taken. Host plant resistance offers a cheap and sustai...

In 2007 two long-term trials were established in Kenya to contribute research-based evidence to the global debate on the productivity, economic viability and sustainability of different agricultural production systems. These trials compare conventional (Conv) and organic (Org) farming systems at ...


Adamtey, NoahMusyoka, M.W.Zundel, C.Cobo Borrero, Juan G.Karanja, E.Fiaboe, K.K.M.Muriuki, A.Mucheru-Muna, M.Vanlauwe, BernardBerset, E.Messmer, M.M.Gattinger, A.Bhullar, G.S.Cadisch, GeorgFliessbach, A.Mäder, PaulNiggli, U.Foster, D.[Productivity, profitability and partial nutrient balance in maize-based conventional and organic farming systems in Kenya]Productivity, profitability and partial nutrient balance in maize-based conventional and organic farming systems in Kenya

In sub-Saharan Africa, urban populations are projected to increase by 115% in the coming 15 years. In addition, economic growth and dietary shifts towards animal source foods have put high pressure and demand on agricultural production. The high ecological footprint of meat and dairy production, ...


Shumo, M.Khamis, F.M.Tanga, C.M.Fiaboe, K.K.M.Subramanian, S.Ekesi, S.Huis, A. vanBorgemeister, C.[Influence of temperature on selected life-history traits of black soldier fly (Hermetia illucens) reared on two common urban organic waste streams in Kenya]Influence of temperature on selected life-history traits of black soldier fly (Hermetia illucens) reared on two common urban organic waste streams in Kenya

The microbial composition of farmed and wild Scapsipedus icipe and Gryllus bimaculatus is presented. The aim of this study is to determine the microbial load of the two cricket species and evaluate the efficiency of processing methods (boiling, sun-drying, freeze-drying, snap-freezing and deep-fr...

Maize farmers in sub-Saharan Africa recently experienced unusual damage in their farms, attributed to the fall armyworm (FAW) Spodoptera frugiperda (J. E. Smith). This pest was first recorded in Africa in 2016, but detailed information on its distribution and damage and farmer's response in invad...

To match Nitrogen (N) supply to crop N demand, it is essential to understand N release and uptake patterns in different farming systems and crops. To assesses the dynamics of N released in organic and conventional systems and potential synchrony and asynchrony in crop N uptake, a study was conduc...

A composite blend consisting of sunflower cake, maize germ, wheat bran, fresh water shrimps and cassava flour was extruded using a single-screw extruder to produce expanded fish feed pellets. The effects of temperature (80–120 C), die diameter (2–4 mm), and feed pre-conditioning time (50–150 s; ...
