Result of long time alley cropping trials show that the inclusion of N2- fixing hedgerow species maintain higher levels of soil fertility than control treatment (no hedgerow) on high base status soils in the humid zone. Hedgerows contribute to nutrient cycling and higher faunal activity. With goo...

Women play an increasingly greater role in agriculture. Ensuring that they have opportunities—equal to those of men—to participate in transforming agriculture is a prerequisite for sustainable intensification. Increased gender equity in agriculture is both a practical and a social justice issue: ...

Up to now, efforts to help local communities out of the food-insecurity trap were guided by researcher
(or other actors)-led decisions on technologies to be implemented by the communities. This approach has proved
inefficient because of low adoption of the so-called improved technologies. This pa...

Improving bacterial nitrogen fixation in grain legumes is central to sustainable intensification of agriculture in sub-Saharan Africa. In the case of soyabean, two main approaches have been pursued: first, promiscuous varieties were developed to form effective symbiosis with locally abundant nitr...
