Knowledge of status of nutrient management in agricultural production systems is critical in the development of sustainable improvement options; however, in mixed dairy-crop systems in Uganda, which are gaining prevalence, the status of nutrient management is unclear. Nitrogen (N) being one of th...
As systems intensify, crops and livestock become increasingly integrated. Forage from crops becomes a larger component of overall forage supply in small-scale systems. This paper integrates information from field trials, studying the effect of varying maize planting density, with modelling approa...
Seasonal variation in feed supply, is recognised as an important constraint to animal production in the tropics. However, day to day fluctuations in quantity and quality of feed are also common in stall-fed animals on smallholder dairy farms. Opportunistic use of feeds available in small amounts,...
Sustainability of their agricultural systems is essential for many tropical countries where the majority of the people depend upon agriculture for their livelihoods. In the short term economic sustainability is the main factor influencing viability of an agricultural system and of the farms which...
An 'Outcome Mapping' approach was applied retrospectively to five diverse, highly collaborative research projects aimed at poverty reduction. Designed to help plan for, clarify, and document intended and actual changes in behaviour, actions, and relationships of groups and organisations that dire...
The objective of this study was to improve the availability of phosphorus (P) from rock phosphate (RP) through feeding, mixing and composting manure. The experiment was conducted as a 3 × 2 split-plot design. Manure was collected from 12 Boran steers (200 ± 4.5 kg live weight) fed a basal diet of...
