Background: Knowledge on the spread and distribution of insecticide resistance in major malaria vectors such as Anopheles funestus is key to implement successful resistance management strategies across Africa. Here, by assessing the susceptibility status of an inland population of An. funestus Gi...

This article analysed farmers' perceptions of the effects of coconut mite in their livelihood and assessed crop diversification as a copping strategy for reduced coconut production. A socio-economic model of farmers' decisions on intercropping as an indicator for overall crop diversity was develo...

Cowpea covers the largest area of any grain legume in Africa and is especially important in West Africa where Nigeria and Niger alone account for over 75% of the total cowpea production in the world. Despite successes of international and national cowpea improvement research in the development an...

Agricultural intensification involving greater crop–livestock interactions and integration is emerging as the most promising strategy for improving agricultural production and productivity in much of Sub-Sahara Africa. In West Africa, where this process is at various stages of evolution, 559 far...


Okike, I.Jabbar, M.A.Manyong, Victor M.Smith, Jimmy W.Ehui, Simeon K.[Factors affecting farm-specific economic efficiency in the West African savannahs.]Factors affecting farm-specific economic efficiency in the West African savannahs.

Agricultural intensification in West Africa is at an early stage and the process is taking place through various pathways. Population pressure and market access are generally considered as major factors driving intensification and crop-livestock interaction. In this paper both ecology and economi...

This paper examines the adoption and impact of selective and whole package adoption of improved cowpea involving new variety, insect control, fertilizer, and best bet cropping pattern in northern Nigeria. A farm income model that explicitly accounts for endogenous technology adoption was used to ...

In this study, we examine the diversity of risks that affect fanning in the Northern Guinea Savanna of Nigeria. We also investigate the perspectives of these risks in relation to their economic implications on the farming enterprises. We also show that through reorganization of these risks, some ...
