Soil degradation poses a serious threat to food production and rural livelihoods in sub-Saharan Africa1. Nutrient mining ,as a result of unsustainable farming practices, have left the soils unfertile (Fig.1). Green Manure Cover Crops (GMCC’s) are a promising intervention to improve soil health2.B...

Farming practices in sub-Saharan Africa have resulted in declining soil fertility. Hence, Green Manure Cover Crops (GMCC) are promoted for soil improvement and protection. Adoption of GMCCs by farmers, including integration in their cropping systems, requires a good understanding of the multi-dim...

Productivity in Crop-Livestock Systems can be maximized using Integrated Soil Fertility Management (ISFM). ISFM combines (i) improved germplasm (ii) mineral fertilizer application (iii) organic matter management and (v) adapted agronomy. CIAT established a long-term trial in Western Kenya in the ...
