Certain rhizobacteria exert considerable influence on plant growth and development, particularly under limiting conditions. The effects of some indigenous soil microbial isolates and commercially produced microbial inoculants, referred to as bio-inoculants, on the growth and dry matter yield (DMY...

Plants growing in acid soils suffer both phosphorus (P) deficiency and aluminum (Al) toxicity stresses. Selection of genotypes for adaptation to either P deficiency or Al toxicity has sometimes been unsuccessful because these two soil factors often interact. Two experiments were conducted to eval...

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...

We conducted field experiments over 2 years on two acid soils of southern Cameroon to test whether efficient uptake and use of phosphorus (P) from less available sources by grain legume genotypes could benefit subsequent rotational maize. We grew two crops each year. For the first crop we grew 4 ...

Soil fertility problems resulting in low maize yields in smallholder farms are common in the West African moist savanna. The effectiveness of commercial foliar fertilizers in improving maize growth and yield was evaluated in three savanna agro-ecological zones of Nigeria in two steps. In step one...

During recent decennia, new commercial products have appeared on the market as alternatives to common fertilizers. While some of these products are based on well-established technologies, such as rhizobium inoculation, others have not been subjected to scientific scrutiny. During 3 years, we eval...


Jefwa, J.M.Pypers, PieterJemo, M.Thuita, Moses N.Mutegi, E.Laditi, M.A.Faye, A.Kavoo, A.Munyahali, W.Herselman, L.Atieno, M.Okalebo, J.R.Yusuf, A.Ibrahim, A.Ndung’u-Magiroi, K.W.Asrat, A.Muletta, D.Ncho, C.Kamaa, M.Lesueur, Didier[Do commercial biological and chemical products increase crop yields and economic returns under smallholder farmer conditions?]Do commercial biological and chemical products increase crop yields and economic returns under smallholder farmer conditions?

This paper evaluates the costs and returns incurred by the use of chemical and biological crop products among households in five selected Compro communities in the derived, Southern Guinea, Northern Guinea, Sudan and Sahel Savanna agro-ecological zones (AEZs) in West Africa. Sixty households were...

Biological nitrogen fixation (BNF) potential of 12 soybean genotypes were evaluated in condition of low and sufficient supply in two acid soils of southern Cameroon. The P sources were Togolese phosphate rock (PR) and triple super phosphate (TSP). The experiment was carried out during two consecu...

Recently, there has been a lot of interest to promote bio-fertilizers for eco-efficient intensification of agricultural systems in sub-Saharan Africa (SSA). Bio-fertilizers are considered cost-effective and environmentally-friendly. In SSA, bio-fertilizers have not been sufficiently evaluated for...
