A survey of the farmers in the semi-arid and humid areas of Los Altos de Jalisco, Mexico, was conducted to determine the constraints on bean yield in the area. Based on the information collected, the most important characteristics of the production systems of beans in monoculture and association ...
Con el fin de determinar los problemas que limitan el rendimiento del frijol en monocultivo y en asociacion con maiz, se encuestaron los agricultores de las regiones semiarida y humeda de los Altos de Jalisco, Mexico. Con base en la informacion recolectada se describen las caracteristicas mas imp...

Avances del diagnostico de frijol en la zona de Los Altos de Jalisco, Mexico
The paper reviews the available data and current activities on agronomic aspects of cassava in Thailand. These activities were carried out by various national research programs in collaboration with CIAT during 1990-1993. The review shows that the inherent fertility of cassava soils has been depl...

Recent progress in cassava agronomy research in Thailand
With the potential threat of more frequent climate extremes putting semi-arid crop production in jeopardy, there is a need to establish more resilient cropping systems. Intercropping is often practised by farmers in such regions, but to what extent and how can it be a viable option for future con...

Effect of intercropping forage legumes with cereal crops on cereal grain yield and fodder yield and quality
The increasing interest in crop-livestock integration in sub-Saharan Africa has emphasised the beneficial uses of forage legumes in cereal-based cropping systems. Forage legume-cereal cropping systems were evaluated in 1989 and 1990 at the ICRISAT (International Crops Research Institute for the S...
