This program aims to help poor and vulnerable people to more fully benefit from aquatic agricultural systems, which include a mix of cultivation, livestock, aquaculture, fishing, and gathering of natural resources. Although these diverse farming systems can be highly productive, smallholders face...

This article provides an assessment of the potential impact of operationalizing agricultural innovation platforms (IPs) in the Sudan Savannah zone of Nigeria on adoption of improved maize/legume crop varieties, as measured by the potential outcome approach. The results show that, if the whole pop...

Maize (Zea mays L.) hybrids resistant to Striga hermonthica (Del) Benth and tolerant to drought are vital to the sustainability of productivity of the maize-based farming systems of West and Central Africa (WCA). Thirty-six diallel crosses derived from nine early maturing white maize inbreds were...

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,...
