The majority of soils in Africa are P-deficient, but the high cost of conventional, water-soluble P fertilisers limits their use by resource-poor farmers. Rockphosphates are a low-cost alternative. The relative agronomic effectiveness of unacidulated (RP), 25 percent partially acidulated (PARP25)...

An on farm tiral, in which a wheat-clover mixed cropping treatment was compared to an unfertilized (control) and N-fertilized (23 kg N ha-1) pure wheat treatments, was conducted at Ginchi (2200 metres above sea level (masl) and Deneba (2600 masl) in the Ethiopian highlands. The total crop residue...

Most soils in sub-Saharan Africa are P deficient, but the high cost of water-soluble P fertilizers limits the use of P fertilizers by resource-poor farmers. A low-cost alternative is to apply phosphate rocks. We evaluated the effectiveness of unacidulated (PR), 25 percent partially acidulated (PA...

The effects of Leucaena leucocephala and L. pallida prunings and cattle manure on maize nutrient uptake and yield were investigated in a hedgerow inter-cropping trial in the Ethiopian highlands. Hedgerow inter-cropping (also called alley cropping) is an agroforestry system in which trees are grow...

Although the majority of soils in Africa are P deficient, the high cost of conventional water-soluble P fertilizers limits their use by resource-poor farmers. Rockphosphates are a low-cost alternative. The effect of Egyptian rockphosphate (ERP) from two sources, applied at 50 kg P ha-1, on annual...

Poor drainage of Vertisols and nitrogen (N) and phosphorus (P) deficiencies are some if the major constraints to food and feed production in the Ethiopian highlands. The effects of soil drainage and P supply on N fixation by annual trifolium species and their residual value to succeeding crops wa...

Balances between nutrients applied or mineralized and nutrients removed in maize grain and stover were calculated in a hedgerow intercropping experiment in which Leucaena leucocephala and L. pallida prunings and cattle manure were applied. Hedgerow intercropping (also called alley cropping) is an...

In most small-scale farms in sub-Saharan Africa, net negative balances of nutrients result when nutrients are removed from the farm by harvested crops, because farmers cannot afford inorganic fertilizers. A key resource that could be useful in reversing this trends is manure from livestock. The N...
