To guide soil fertility investment programmes in sub-Saharan Africa, better understanding is needed of the relative importance of soil and crop management factors in determining smallholder crop yields and yield variability. Spatial variability in crop yields within farms is strongly influenced b...


Tittonell, Pablo A.Shepherd, Keith D.Vanlauwe, BernardGiller, Ken E.[Unravelling the effects of soil and crop management on maize productivity in smallholder agricultural systems of western Kenya : An application of classification and regression tree analysis]Unravelling the effects of soil and crop management on maize productivity in smallholder agricultural systems of western Kenya : An application of classification and regression tree analysis

Strong gradients of decreasing soil fertility are found with increasing distance from the homestead within smallholder African farms, due to differential resource allocation. As nutrient use efficiency varies strongly along these gradients, such heterogeneity must be considered when designing soi...


Tittonell, Pablo A.Vanlauwe, BernardLeffelaar, P.A.Shepherd, Keith D.Giller, Ken E.[Exploring diversity in soil fertility management of smallholder farms in western Kenya. II. Within-farm variability in resource allocation, nutrient flows and soil fertility status]Exploring diversity in soil fertility management of smallholder farms in western Kenya. II. Within-farm variability in resource allocation, nutrient flows and soil fertility status

Organic resources (ORs) are essential inputs in tropical farming systems and their decomposition dynamics are related to their quality. A Decision Support System (DSS) for organic N management has been proposed earlier that subdivides ORs in four classes depending on their N, lignin, and soluble ...
