Nassoro, Z.Rubanza, C.D.K.Kimaro, Anthony A.[Evaluation of nutritive value of browse tree fodder species in semi-arid Kiteto and Kongwa districts of Tanzania]Evaluation of nutritive value of browse tree fodder species in semi-arid Kiteto and Kongwa districts of Tanzania

This paper generates an extrapolation suitability index (ESI) to guide scaling-out of improved maize varieties and inorganic fertilizers. The best-bet technology packages were selected based on yield gap data from trial sites in Tanzania. A modified extrapolation detection algorithm was used to g...


Muthoni, Francis K.Baijukya, Frederick P.Bekunda, Mateete A.Sseguya, H.Kimaro, Anthony A.Alabi, T.Mruma, S.Hoeschle-Zeledon, Irmgard[Accounting for correlation among environmental covariates improves delineation of extrapolation suitability index for agronomic technological packages]Accounting for correlation among environmental covariates improves delineation of extrapolation suitability index for agronomic technological packages

Conservation agriculture (CA) is promoted extensively to increase the productivity and environmental sustainability of maize production systems across sub-Saharan Africa and is often listed as a climate-smart agriculture (CSA) practice. However, the impacts of CA on food security, resilience/adap...


Kimaro, Anthony A.Mpanda, MathewRioux, J.Aynekulu, ErmiasShaba, S.Thiong'o, M.Mutuo PAbwanda, SheilaShepherd KNeufeldt, HenryRosenstock, Todd S.[Is conservation agriculture ‘climate-smart’ for maize farmers in the highlands of Tanzania?]Is conservation agriculture ‘climate-smart’ for maize farmers in the highlands of Tanzania?

Microdosing, the point-source application of a reduced fertilizer rate within 10 days of sowing, has increased short-term crop yields across the Sahel and is being actively scaled up as an agronomic practice. However, there is no information on the long-term effects of the technique upon soil fer...

Development programs have typically neglected uncertainty and variability in terms of outcomes and socio-ecological context when promoting conservation agriculture (CA) throughout sub-Saharan Africa. We developed a simple Monte Carlo-based decision model, calibrated to global data-sets and parame...
