Azadegan, ShadiGodek, WendyGuharay, FalguniMena Urbina, Martin A.Silas, P.Valbuena, DiegoHoek, Rein van der[Overview of the Nicaragua research for development platform]Overview of the Nicaragua research for development platform

The integration of multipurpose legumes into low-input tropical agricultural systems is needed because they are a nitrogen (N) input through symbiotic fixation. The drought-tolerant cover legume canavalia (Canavalia brasiliensis) has been introduced for use either as forage or as a green manure i...

CROSST is an Excel-based tool that assesses both agro-environmental and socio-economic impacts of Green Manure Cover Crop (GMCC) technologies. The tool quantifies gross economic margin, productivity (yield), soil health (N and P balances, soil structure, and soil organic carbon), required labor h...


Mukiri, JessicaDiogo, Rodrigue V. CaoGbedjissokpa, Sènami G.M.Kinyua, MichaelHoek, Rein van derPaul, BirtheSommer, RolfSommer, Rolf[CROSST - Version 1.0.1]CROSST - Version 1.0.1

Farming practices in sub-Saharan Africa have resulted in declining soil fertility. Hence, Green Manure Cover Crops (GMCC) are promoted for soil improvement and protection. Adoption of GMCCs by farmers, including integration in their cropping systems, requires a good understanding of the multi-dim...

Forage-based livestock production plays a key role in national and regional economies, for food security and poverty alleviation, but is considered a major contributor to agricultural GHG emissions. While demand for livestock products is predicted to increase, there is political and societal pres...

Agriculture and livestock production are major contributors to greenhouse gas emissions. Foragebased systems dominate much of agriculture in the tropics, providing livelihoods to farmers but also affecting local and global environments. In this paper, we attempt to answer the question, how can fa...
