Comparative assessment of productivity of maize, finger millet and sorghum for household food security in the face of increasing climatic risk

Autor: Rurinda, J.P. Mapfumo, Paul Wijk, Mark T. van Mtambanengwe, F. Rufino, Mariana C. Chikowo, Regis Giller, Ken E.

Questions as to which crop to grow, where, when and with what management, will be increasingly challenging for farmers in the face of a changing climate. The objective of this study was to evaluate emergence, yield and financial benefits of maize, finger millet and sorghum, planted at different d...

Comparative short-term effects of different quality organic resources on maize productivity under two different environments in Zimbabwe

Autor: Mtambanengwe, F. Mapfumo, Paul Vanlauwe, Bernard

Major challenges for combined use of organic and mineral nutrient sources in smallholder agriculture include variable type and quality of the resources, their limited availability, timing of their relative application and the proportions at which the two should be combined. Short-term nutrient su...

Organic matter quality and management effects on enrichment of soil organic matter fractions in contrasting soils in Zimbabwe

Autor: Mapfumo, Paul Mtambanengwe, F. Vanlauwe, Bernard

Maintenance of soil organic matter (SOM) at levels that sustain optimal supply of soil nutrients and enhance efficiency of externally added fertilizers is a major challenge for smallholder farming systems of southern Africa. A study was conducted to quantify the interactive effects of organic res...

Sources of vulnerability to a variable and changing climate among smallholder households in Zimbabwe: A participatory analysis

Autor: Rurinda, J.P. Mapfumo, Paul Wijk, Mark T. van Mtambanengwe, F. Rufino, Mariana C. Chikowo, Regis Giller, Ken E.

Vulnerability analysis is essential for targeting adaptation options to impacts of climate variability and change, particularly in diverse systems with limited resources such as smallholder farms in sub-Saharan Africa. To investigate the nature and sources of vulnerability of smallholder farmers ...

Managing soil fertility to adapt to rainfall variability in smallholder cropping systems in Zimbabwe

Autor: Rurinda, J.P. Mapfumo, Paul Wijk, Mark T. van Mtambanengwe, F. Rufino, Mariana C. Chikowo, Regis Giller, Ken E.

Adaptation options that address short-term climate variability are likely to lead to short-term benefits and will help to deal with future changes in climate in smallholder cropping systems in Sub-Saharan Africa (SSA). In this study we combined field experimentation and long-term rainfall analyse...
