Mhizha, A.Ndiritu, J.Nyagumbo, Isaiah[To retain or to drain water in agricultural fields of semi-arid regions using contour ridges]To retain or to drain water in agricultural fields of semi-arid regions using contour ridges

Conservation agriculture (CA) is increasingly promoted in Africa as an alternative for coping with the need to increase food production on the basis of more sustainable farming practices. Success with adopting CA on farms in Africa has been limited, despite more than two decades of research and d...

Future threats of climate variability and change and accelerated soil degradation in southern Africa have increased the need for more sustainable and “climate-smart” agriculture practices. Manual systems of conservation agriculture (CA) based on seeding into planting basins or direct seeding tech...


Thierfelder, ChristianMatemba-Mutasa RBunderson, W.T.Mutenje MNyagumbo, IsaiahMupangwa, W.[Evaluating manual conservation agriculture systems in southern Africa]Evaluating manual conservation agriculture systems in southern Africa

Continuous conventional tillage coupled with unsystematic cereal/legume rotations has promoted low crop productivity on smallholder farms. A multi-locational study was established in three agro-ecoregions (AEs) of Zimbabwe. The aim of the study was to determine the effect of four tillage systems ...


Mupangwa, W.Mutenje, M.Thierfelder, ChristianNyagumbo, Isaiah[Are conservation agriculture (CA) systems productive and profitable options for smallholder farmers in different agro-ecoregions of Zimbabwe?]Are conservation agriculture (CA) systems productive and profitable options for smallholder farmers in different agro-ecoregions of Zimbabwe?

Conservation agriculture (CA) and no-till (NT)-based cropping systems could address soil degradation and fertility decline in southern Africa. A multi-location and multi-year experiment was carried out between 2008 and 2014 to assess the effects of different levels of maize residue biomass (0, 2,...


Mupangwa, W.Thierfelder, ChristianCheesman, S.Nyagumbo, IsaiahMuoni, T.Mhlanga, B.Mwila, M.Sida, T.S.Ngwira, A.[Effects of maize residue and mineral nitrogen applications on maize yield in conservation-agriculture-based cropping systems of Southern Africa]Effects of maize residue and mineral nitrogen applications on maize yield in conservation-agriculture-based cropping systems of Southern Africa

The increasing demand for food from limited available land, in light of declining soil fertility and future threats of climate variability and change have increased the need for more sustainable crop management systems. Conservation agriculture (CA) is based on the three principles of minimum soi...

Since the paper by Giller et al. (2009), the debate surrounding the suitability of conservation agriculture (CA) for African smallholders has remained polarized between proponents and opponents. The debate also gave rise to a few studies that attempted to identify the “niche” where CA would fit i...
