Mango, NelsonMakate, CliftonHanyani-Mlambo, Benjamin T.Siziba, ShephardLundy, Mark[A stochastic frontier analysis of technical efficiency in smallholder maize production in Zimbabwe: The post-fast-track land reform outlook]A stochastic frontier analysis of technical efficiency in smallholder maize production in Zimbabwe: The post-fast-track land reform outlook

Fecal sludge (FS) contains significant amounts of plant nutrients and organic matter although it also contains pathogens. Therefore, FS can be used as fertilizer after proper sanitization. This study was designed to test dried fecal sludge (DFS)-based pellet fertilizers on maize cultivation. The ...

Although the West-African moist savanna zone has a high potential for crop production, yields on farmers' fields are, on average, far below this potential, mainly due to the low use of external sources of nutrients. Since the mid-1990s, it has become clear that in order to upgrade crop production...

One of the options to alleviate soil fertility constraints for sustainable agriculture in the savannas of West Africa is to develop soil nutrient management technologies from an adequate supply and feasible share of organic and mineral inputs. This paper makes a diagnosis of farm-level use of org...
